ENERGY AND NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
Your new refrigerator has been designed to optimize energy
efficiency and better regulate temperatures to match
cooling demand. You may notice that it operates differently
from your previous refrigerator.
It is normal for the high-efficiency compressor to run for
extended periods of time at varying speeds in order to
consume only the energy necessary for optimum efficiency.
In addition, during various stages of the cooling cycle and
ice production, you may hear normal operating sounds that
are unfamiliar to you. Normal sounds may include cracking/
crashing, popping, pulsating/whirring, rattling, water
running or gurgling, and sizzling.
LEVELING AND DOOR ALIGNMENT
✔ To level the product or align the doors, you must first
remove the base grille as follows:
❑ Open both doors to 90°. Remove the base grille by
removing the two screws and then pulling out on the
outside corners.
NOTE: The doors must only be opened to 90°. If they
are opened all the way, the base grille will not come off.
To view an animated video about
the leveling and door alignment
process, scan the code at left
with your mobile device.
✔ If the refrigerator doors do not close easily or pop open,
or if the refrigerator seems unsteady or rolls when a door
is pulled open:
❑ Use a ¹⁄4" open-ended or adjustable wrench to adjust the
leveling feet, which are located on the brackets on each
side of the product.
n 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.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling feet,
making it easier to turn the feet.
PRODUCE PRESERVER INSTALLATION
(on some models)
✔ Install Produce Preserver(s) and status indicator(s)
according to instructions.
