Rollers allow you to move the refrigerator away from the
wall for cleaning.
Leveling Legs near each front corner of the refrigerator, next
to the rollers, should be adjusted if any of the following
occurs:
• Refrigerator wobbles due to front roller not being firmly
positioned on the floor.
• Door(s) do not close easily when opened to 45°.
NOTE:
• BEFORE moving the refrigerator away from the wall,
be sure to turn the leveling legs counterclockwise so that
the weight of the refrigerator is fully transferred to the front
rollers.
• The refrigerator will not be
level from front to back. It will
have a slight backward tilt for
proper door-closing.
To adjust the leveling legs,
turn the two front leveling
legs clockwise to raise the
front of the refrigerator and
counterclockwise to lower it.
