REFRIGERATOR INSTALLATION
Open both doors again and check to make sure that
they close easily. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more
to the rear by turning both leveling screws clockwise. It
may take several more turns, and you should turn both
leveling screws the same amount.
DOOR CLOSING AND ALIGNMENT
Door Closing
Your refrigerator has two front leveling screws one on
the right and one on the left. If your refrigerator seems
unsteady or you want the doors to close easier, adjust
the refrigerator tilt using the instructions below:
1.
Plug the refrigerator power cord into a 3-prong
grounded outlet. Move the refrigerator into its final
position.
2.
Use a screwdriver to adjust the leveling screws. Turn
the leveling screw clockwise to raise that side of the
refrigerator or counterclockwise to lower it. It may take
several turns of the leveling screw to adjust the tilt of
the refrigerator.
NOTE:
Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws.
This makes it easier to adjust the screws.
3.
4.
Check, using a level.
5.
Replace the base grille.
Door Alignment
If the space between your doors is uneven, follow the
instructions below to align the doors:
1.
Pry off the top hinge cover.
2.
Loosen the top hinge screws using a 10 mm socket
or wrench.
3.
Have someone hold the door in place or put a
spacer between the doors while you tighten the
top hinge screws.
4.
Replace the top hinge cover.
AFTER COMPLETING THE JOB
Make sure that the four corners of the door gasket are
not folded over. To ensure a good seal, apply a small
amount of silicon grease on the gasket.
