Adjust the Doors
Door Closing
1. Place a level inside the refrigerator at the back of the top shelf.
See Graphic 8 in “Refrigerator Doors.”
2. Locate the leveling screws behind the base grille of the
refrigerator on either side.
3. Use a hex-head wrench to adjust the front roller leveling screws
until the refrigerator is level. Turn the front roller leveling screw
to the right to raise that side of the refrigerator or turn the
leveling screw to the left to lower that side. See Graphic 10 in
“Refrigerator Doors.” Make sure refrigerator is level before
proceeding.
4. Check the door alignment after leveling the refrigerator.
Align the Doors
IMPORTANT: First level the back of the refrigerator as described in
“Door Closing.”
The doors may be uneven after leveling the refrigerator. See
Graphic 9 in “Refrigerator Doors.” The doors are preset at the
factory so that the refrigerator door is higher than the freezer door
by approximately the thickness of a quarter. Once the doors are
loaded with food, they should be even. If the door height needs to
be adjusted AFTER the doors have been loaded with food, follow
the these steps.
1. Use a hex-head wrench to adjust the front roller leveling screws
until the doors are even. Turn the front roller leveling screw to
the right to raise that side of the refrigerator or turn the leveling
screw to the left to lower that side. See Graphic 10 in
“Refrigerator Doors.”
NOTE: Open and close both the refrigerator and freezer doors
after each adjustment to check the door alignment.
2. Open the doors and replace the base grille. Line up the grille
support tabs with the metal clips. Push the grille firmly to snap it
into place.
NOTE: Be sure to refasten the Tech Sheet behind the base
grille.
Connect Water Supply
Read all directions before you begin.
IMPORTANT: If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is
connected, turn the ice maker OFF.
Connect to Water Line
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long
enough to clear line of water.
3. Locate a ¹⁄₂ " (1.27 cm) to 1 ¹⁄₄ " (3.18 cm) vertical cold water pipe
near the refrigerator.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure it is a cold water pipe.
Horizontal pipe will work, but drill on the top side of the
pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from
the drill and normal sediment from collecting in the valve.
4. Determine the length of copper tubing you need. Measure from
the connection on the lower rear corner of refrigerator to the
water pipe. Add 7 ft (2.1 m) to allow for cleaning. Use ¹⁄₄ "
(6.35 mm) O.D. (outside diameter) copper tubing. Be sure both
ends of copper tubing are cut square.
5. Using a cordless drill, drill a ¹⁄₄ " (6.35 mm) hole in the cold
water pipe you have selected.

6. Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe
clamp. Be sure the outlet end is solidly in the ¹⁄₄ " (6.35 mm)
drilled hole in the water pipe and that the washer is under the
pipe clamp. Tighten the packing nut. Tighten the pipe clamp
screws slowly and evenly so the washer makes a watertight
seal. Do not overtighten, or you may crush the copper tubing.
7. Slip the compression sleeve and compression nut on the copper
tubing as shown. Insert the end of the tubing into the outlet end
squarely as far as it will go. Screw the compression nut onto
outlet end with adjustable wrench. Do not overtighten.
8. Place the free end of the tubing in a container or sink, and turn
ON the main water supply. Flush the tubing until water is clear.
Turn OFF the shutoff valve on the water pipe. Coil the copper
tubing.
Connect to Refrigerator
Style 1
1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.
2. Remove and discard the plastic part that is attached to the
inlet of the water valve.
3. Attach the copper tube to the valve inlet using a compression
nut and sleeve as shown. Tighten the compression nut. Do not
overtighten.
4. Use the tube clamp on the back of the refrigerator to secure
the tubing to the refrigerator as shown. This will help avoid
damage to the tubing when the refrigerator is pushed back
against the wall.
5. Turn shutoff valve ON.
6. Check for leaks. Tighten any connections (including connections
at the valve) or nuts that leak.
