18 INSTALLATION
ENGLISH
Leveling
After installing, plug the refrigerator’s power
cord into a the national recomended outlet and
push the refrigerator into the final position.
Your refrigerator has two front leveling legs-
one on the right and one on the left. Adjust the
legs to alter the tilt from front - to - back or side
- to - side. If your refrigerator seems unsteady, or
you want the doors to close more easily, adjust
the refrigerator’s tilt using the instructions below:
NOTE: Tools Required: 11/16” (18mm) wrench
or flat blade screwdriver.
1 Remove the base grille. For instructions,
see Installing the Base Grille, page 11.
2 Turn the leveling leg counterclockwise
to raise that side of the refrigerator or
clockwise to lower it. It may take several
turns of the leveling leg to adjust the tilt of
the refrigerator.

NOTE: Having someone push backward against the
top of the refrigerator takes some weight off of the
leveling legs. This makes it easier to adjust the legs.

3 Open both doors again and check to make
sure that they close easily. If the doors do
not close easily, tilt the refrigerator slightly
more to the rear by turning both leveling
legs counterclockwise. It may take several
more turns, and you should turn both
leveling legs the same amount.
4 Reinstall the base grille.
Door Alignment
If the doors are still uneven after the refrigerator
