INSTALLATION

LEVELING AND DOOR ALIGNMENT

Leveling

After installing, plug the refrigerator's power cord into a 3-prong
grounded 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 in (18 mm) wrench or flat blade
screwdriver.
1. Turn the leveling leg to the left to raise that side of the
refrigerator or to the right 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.
2. 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 to the
left. It may take several more turns, and you should turn both
leveling legs the same amount.
NOTE: Your refrigerator is uniquely designed with two fresh food
doors. Either door can be opened or closed independently of
the other. You may have to exert slight pressure on the doors to
get them to close completely.

Door Alignment

If the space between your doors is uneven, follow the
instructions below to align the doors:
1. With one hand, lift up the door that you would like to
raise at the middle hinge.
2. With your other hand, use pliers to insert snap ring as
shown.
3. Insert additional snap rings until the doors are aligned.
(Three snap rings are provided with the refrigerator in the
Use & Care Guide packet.)
