LEVELING 

The refrigerator has two front leveling legs. After moving the refrigerator to its 
final location, adjust the leveling legs to alter the tilt from front-to-back or 
side-to-side. If the refrigerator seems unsteady, or the doors do not close 
easily, adjust the refrigerator’s tilt using the instructions below: 

NOTE:

 

Do not over-tighten.

1.

Turn the leveling leg to the left to
raise that side of the refrigerator or
to the right to lower it. It may take
several turns of the leveling leg to
adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.

2.

Open both doors and check to make
sure that they close easily. If the
doors do not close easily, tilt the
refrigerator slightly more to the rear
by turning both leveling legs to the
left. It may take several more turns,
and be sure to turn both leveling
legs the same amount.
