■
Gently route the large wiring bundle (with two white plugs)
through the hole in the routing plate, so that the wiring
runs behind the right side of the routing plate. See
Graphic 3.
NOTE: The large wiring bundle should always remain
below the small wiring bundle.
■
Reconnect the wiring plugs to the electrical housing, then
push the housing back under the refrigerator. Align the left
hole in the front lip of the housing with the right hole in the
refrigerator's base crossbar. See Graphic 3.
■
Reinstall the wiring clip over the grommets. First install the
smaller grommet into the top of the clip, then install the
larger grommet into the bottom of the clip (closest to the
screw hole). See Graphic 3.
■
Align the clip's screw hole with the left hole in the electrical
housing and the right hole in the crossbar, and screw in
the clip using a single screw. Tighten screw. See
Graphic 3.
IMPORTANT: Once connected, the wiring bundles should
not be taut. Some flexibility is needed to allow the freezer
door to open properly.
6. Replace the refrigerator door by lifting the door onto the
bottom right hinge.
7. Align and replace the top right hinge as shown. See Graphic 6.
Tighten screws.
8. Replace the ice storage bin and any adjustable door or utility
bins.
9. Plug refrigerator into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Leveling and Door Closing
Your refrigerator has two adjustable front feet — one on the right
and one on the left. In most cases, the refrigerator should be
steady when both feet are touching the floor. If your refrigerator
seems unsteady or if you want the doors to close more easily,
adjust the refrigerator's tilt using the instructions below:
1. Move the refrigerator into its final location. If necessary, open
both doors to 90° and remove the base grille. See Graphic 1.
2. The two leveling feet are located on the brackets on each side
of the product. See Graphic 8.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator
takes some weight off the leveling feet. This makes it easier to
make adjustments.
3. Use a
¹⁄₄
" open-ended or adjustable wrench to adjust the
leveling feet. Turn the leveling foot to the left to raise that side
of the product, or turn it to the right to lower that side of the
product.
4. Open both doors again and check that they close as easily as
you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by
turning the leveling feet to the left. It may take several more
turns, and you should turn both leveling feet the same
amount.
NOTE: Whenever you need to move the refrigerator, turn the
leveling feet to the right until they are no longer touching the
ground. This will allow the refrigerator to roll more easily.
Door Alignment
A refrigerator that is not level from side-to-side may appear to
have doors that are not properly aligned. If the doors appear this
way, use the instructions in the previous section to check the
leveling.
The doors are designed to be slightly different heights when the
refrigerator is empty, in order to account for the weight of food
that will be placed on the doors. If the doors are still not aligned
after checking the leveling and loading the refrigerator with food,
follow the steps below to adjust the door alignment.
1. If necessary, open both doors to 90° and remove the base
grille. See Graphic 1.
2. Locate the alignment screw on the bottom hinge of the
refrigerator door. See Graphic 9.
3. Use a
⁵⁄₁₆
" open-ended or adjustable wrench to turn the screw.
To raise the refrigerator door, turn the screw to the right. To
lower the door, turn the screw to the left.
4. Check that the doors are even at the top. If necessary,
continue to turn the alignment screw until the doors are
aligned.
5. Open both doors to 90°. Replace the base grille. See
Graphic 1.
Handle Installation
Style 1 - Setscrews
PARTS INCLUDED: Handles (2), Allen wrench, Spare setscrews
NOTE: Handle mounting setscrews are preinstalled in the handle.
1. Remove handles from packaging inside the refrigerator.
NOTE: To avoid damaging the handles, place them on a towel
or other soft surface.
2. Open the refrigerator door. Place the handle on the shoulder
screws (located on the front of the refrigerator door), with the
setscrews facing the freezer door.
3. Firmly push the handle into the door, but do not push down.
Insert the short end of the Allen wrench into each setscrew,
and tighten each screw.
IMPORTANT: When the screw feels tight, tighten it an
additional quarter-turn. The handle is not properly installed
without this extra tightening.
4. Open the freezer door and repeat the previous steps to install
the freezer door handle, with the setscrews facing the
refrigerator door.
5. Save the Allen wrench and all instructions.
To Remove the Handles:
1. Use an Allen wrench to loosen the setscrews, then pull the
handle off of the door.
2. If necessary, use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the shoulder
screws from the door.
Style 2 - Slide-on
PARTS INCLUDED: Handles (2)
1. Remove handles from packaging inside the refrigerator.
NOTE: To avoid damaging the handles, place them on a towel
or other soft surface.
2. Place the handle on the shoulder screws, which are mounted
on the refrigerator door. Apply firm pressure on the handle to
slide it down onto the shoulder screws.
