Adjust the Doors
IMPORTANT:
■
Your refrigerator has two adjustable, front leveling screws –
one on each side of the refrigerator base. If your refrigerator
seems unsteady or you want the door to close easier, use the
instructions below.
■
Before moving the refrigerator, raise the leveling screws so the
front rollers are touching the floor.
1.
Use a Bubble level to check levelness of floor where the
rear side of the refrigerator will rest. If the refrigerator is not
leveled, adjust or add the shim on flooring to create a leveled
floor for the rear side wheels. A leveled rear side prevents the
refrigerator cabinet from forming a twist.
2.
Remove the two screws fastening the base grille to the
cabinet, and set the screws aside. Grasp the grille and pull it
toward you.
3.
Raise or lower the cabinet.
Using a 1/4" hex driver, turn the leveling screw on each side
to raise or lower that side 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 turn the screws. It may take several turns of
the leveling screw to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.
■
To raise, turn the leveling screw clockwise.
■
To lower, turn the leveling screw counterclockwise.
■
Use the bubble level on top of the refrigerator or on its
side to level the refrigerator. Check bubble level and at
the same time observe the gaps and squareness to the
adjacent cabinets, furniture or trim. If adjacent furnishings
are not level, it may not be possible to achieve even gaps
when product is level.
4.
Open the door again to make sure that it closes as easily as
you like. 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 screws the same
amount.
5.
Replace the base grille.
REFRIGERATOR USE
Opening and Closing Doors
There are two refrigerator compartment doors. The doors can be
opened and closed either separately or together.
There is a vertically-hinged seal on the left refrigerator door.
■
When the left side door is opened, the hinged seal
automatically folds inward so that it is out of the way.
■
When both doors are closed, the hinged seal automatically
forms a seal between the two doors.
Using the Controls
The control center is located on the front of the ice and water
dispenser.
Temperature Controls
For your convenience, your temperature controls are preset at the
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the
controls are still set to the recommended set points as shown.
Recommended Setting
IMPORTANT:
■
When the power is on, the temperature display shows the set
point temperature of the compartment.
■
Wait 24 hours for your refrigerator to cool completely before
adding food. If you add food before the refrigerator has
cooled completely, your food may spoil.
NOTE:
Adjusting the refrigerator and freezer temperature
controls to a colder than recommended setting will not cool
the compartments any faster.
