LEVEL AND ALIGN REFRIGERATOR

WARNING
Tip Over Hazard
Refrigerator is top heavy and tips easily when not
completely installed.
Keep doors taped closed until refrigerator is
completely installed.
Use two or more people to move and install
refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death or serious injury.
IMPORTANT : All four leveling legs must contact the floor
to support and stabilize the full weight of refrigerator.
Rollers are for moving the refrigerator, not for permanent
support.
After moving the refrigerator to its final location:
1.
Use a 5/16" socket driver to turn the leveling bolts
clockwise
to extend the legs to the floor as shown.
The rollers should be off the floor.

2.
Adjust the leveling legs to level and align the
refrigerator from
left to right and front to back so that
the refrigerator is level and aligned with the cabinets.
3.
Continue adjusting the leveling legs until the top of
the
refrigerator is making contact with the bottom of
the solid soffit, or the bottom of the anti-tip boards, if
anti-tip boards were used. Do not crush the
compressor cover.

IMPORTANT : Adjust in small increments to keep from
damaging the cabinet trim and causing problems with
the door alignment or top grille fit. To avoid damage to
the cabinet or leveling legs, do not apply more than 50
inch-pounds (5.65 Nm) of torque to the leveling bolts. The
leveling legs can be extended to a maximum of 1¹⁄₄"
(3.18 cm) below the rollers.
4.
After leveling the refrigerator, again use a straight
edge or 4-ft
level across the front of the refrigerator
installation blocks to the cabinets to check that the
refrigerator is still flush.
INSTALL PANELS
Refer instructions received with full height door panel
kit /Armoire kit to install stainless steel / Custom Wood
Overlay Panels.
IMPORTANT : JennAir is not responsible for the removal
or addition of molding or wood overlay panels that would
not allow access to the refrigerator for service.

INSTALL BASE GRILLE

There are two pieces to the base grille to allow for a
custom fit: the base grille itself and the skirt. The skirt can
be added to the base grille in order to extend it all the
way to the floor.
1.
To see whether the skirt is needed, place the base
grille into
position. Do not attach the base grille to
the refrigerator. Measure the distance between the
bottom of the base grille and the floor. The gap must
be a minimum of 1/2" (1.27 cm) in order to add the
skirt.
NOTE : If the gap measures less than ¹⁄₂" (1.27 cm),
skip steps 3 and 4 of the instructions, and install the
base grille only.
2.
Remove the film from the base grille.
