Installation
Your refrigerator should be positioned
to allow easy access to a counter when
removing food. For best use of drawers and
freezer baskets, the refrigerator should be
in a position where both the refrigerator and
freezer doors can be fully opened.
Guidelines for final positioning of your
refrigerator:
• All four corners of the cabinet must rest
firmly on the floor.
• The cabinet should be level at the front
and rear.
• The sides should tilt ¼ inch (6 mm) from
front to back (to ensure that doors close
and seal properly).
• Doors should align with each other and
be level.
All of these conditions can be met by
raising or lowering the adjustable front
rollers.
To level the cabinet using the front rollers:
1 Open both doors and remove the toe
grille (see “Toe Grille Installation and
Removal” in the “Installation” section).
2 Close the doors and use a flat-blade
screwdriver or ⅜ inch socket wrench to
raise or lower the front rollers.
3 Ensure both doors are bind-free with
their seals touching the cabinet on all
four sides.
NOTE
The refrigerator doors are designed to shut
by themselves within a 20 degree opening.
4 After leveling, verify door stop contacts
lower hinge and top of door does
not contact upper hinge through full
movement of door (from fully closed to
fully open).
5 Reinstall set screw, locking the door
height.

6 Replace the toe grille by fitting it into
place (see “Toe Grille Installation and
Removal” in the “Installation” section).
To level the doors using the adjustable
lower hinge (some models):
1 Before leveling either door, remove
set screw that locks door height into
position. (The door cannot be adjusted
without set screw removed).
2 If the refrigerator door is lower than
the freezer door, raise the refrigerator
door by turning the adjustment screw
clockwise using a 7/16 inch wrench.
(See illustration.)
3 If the freezer door is lower than the
refrigerator door, raise the freezer
door by turning the adjustment screw
clockwise using a 7/16 inch wrench.
