Leveling Refrigerator
The roller adjusting bolts are located behind the base grille. The
refrigerator has 4 adjustable rollers (two front and two rear). There
are 2 sets of roller adjusting bolts found at the base of the
refrigerator on each side.
1. Rear Leveling Bolt (yellow)
2. Front Leveling Bolt (silver)
2.
NOTE: The yellow bolt will adjust the rear of the refrigerator,
and the silver bolt will adjust the front of the refrigerator.
Use a 1/2in. (12.70 mm) socket wrench to adjust the leveling
bolts. Turn the leveling bolt to the right to raise that side of the
refrigerator or turn the leveling bolt to the left to lower that
side. It may take several turns of the leveling bolts to adjust
the tilt of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Be careful not to unscrew the leveling bolts too much
when lowering the refrigerator. The bolt head will start to
come away from the refrigerator when in the lowest position.
If the screw does come out of the rear roller bracket, the
compartment access cover on the back of the refrigerator will
have to be removed to reinstall the bolt.
Adjust the front leveling bolt to bring the refrigerator top
parallel with the cabinet above the refrigerator. For standard
cabinets, leave approximately 1/8in. (3.18 mm) gap between
the top hinges and the cabinet. For full-overlay cabinets,
leave 1/4in. (6.35 mm) gap for leveling. If you do not have a
cabinet above the refrigerator, simply adjust the refrigerator to
make it level.
