Move the refrigerator to its final location.
NOTE: To allow the refrigerator to roll easier, raise the leveling legs off
the floor by turning the leveling screws counterclockwise. The front
rollers will be touching the floor.
So the doors will close easier, use a 1/4" hex driver to turn both leveling
screws clockwise. This will raise the front of the refrigerator tilting it
slightly downward to the rear. Turn both leveling screws the same
amount.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator takes
some weight off the leveling screws. This makes it easier to turn the
screws.

Open and close the doors to make sure they close as easily as you like.
If not, increase the tilt by turning both leveling screws clockwise. It may
take several turns of the leveling screw to allow the doors to close
easier.

Check for door alignment. If one door is lower than the other, adjust
the leveling screw° on the lower side of the refrigerator. Using a 1/4" hex
driver, turn the screw clockwise to raise that side of the refrigerator
until the doors are aligned. It may take several turns of the leveling
screw to raise the refrigerator.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator takes
some weight off the leveling screws. This makes it easier to turn the
screws.
6. Make sure the refrigerator is steady. If the refrigerator seems unsteady
or rolls forward when the door or drawer is opened, adjust the leveling
screws. Using a 1/4" hex driver, turn the leveling screw on each side
clockwise until the rollers are up and the leveling feet are firmly
against the floor.

in the cabinet and fasten using the screws removed in Step 1.
