INSTALLATION

NOTE
If your appliance is placed with the door
hinge side against a wall, you may have
to allow additional space for the handle
so the door can be opened wider.
Leveling
Rest all bottom feet firmly on a
solid floor.
The floor must be strong enough to
support a fully loaded appliance.
It is VERY IMPORTANT for your unit to
be level in order to function properly.
If the appliance is not leveled during
installation, the door may be misaligned
and not close or seal properly, causing
cooling, frost or moisture problems.
To Level the Appliance:
CAUTION
The cabinet is heavy. Two people are
recommended to level the cabinet.
Level the unit using a carpenter's level.
Adjust the leveling feet at the front making
minor adjustments to the rear leveling feet
as needed. Level the unit front to back and
side to side. Make sure all 4 feet fully touch
the floor.
