Closing And Aligning The Doors - LG LFXS24663 Series Owner's Manual

CLOSING AND ALIGNING THE DOORS

Closing the Doors
Your refrigerator has two front leveling screws, one on
the right and one on the left. If your refrigerator seems
unstable or if you would like the doors to close more
easily, simply adjust the inclination of the refrigerator by
following the instructions below:
1. Plug the refrigerator into a 3 prong grounded outlet.
Move the refrigerator into its final position.
2. Remove the base grille (Refer to the section on
"Installation of Base Grille").
3. Use a flat head screwdriver to adjust the leveling screws,
turning clockwise to raise the side of the refrigerator
and counter-clockwise to lower it. It may take several
turns to adjust it to the inclination you would like.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws.
This will make it easier to adjust the screws.
Image only for reference.
4. Open both doors again and check to make sure that
they close easily. If not, slightly tilt the refrigerator
further back by turning both leveling screws clockwise.
It may take several more turns. Make sure that you turn
both leveling screws the same amount.
5. Ensure that the refrigerator is even by using a level.
6. Replace the base grille.
NOTE: Your new refrigerator is uniquely designed with
two fresh food doors. Either door can be opened or
closed independently of one another. You may have
to exert slight pressure on doors to get them to close
completely.
REFRIGERATOR INSTALLATION

Door Alignment
The left refrigerator door has an adjustable nut,
located on the bottom hinge, to raise and lower
the door for proper alignment.
If the space between your doors is uneven, follow
the instructions below to align the doors evenly:
Use the wrench (included with the Use & Care
Guide) to turn the nut in the door hinge to adjust
the height. To the right to raise or to the left to
lower the height.
The right refrigerator door does not have an
adjustable nut.
If the space between your doors is uneven, follow
the instructions below to align the right door:
With one hand, lift up both the inner and
1
outer door sections of the right door to raise
them at the middle hinge. (Opening the door
may make lifting it easier)
2 With the other hand, use pliers to insert the
snap ring on the middle hinge of the inner
door section as shown. Do not insert the ring
on the hinge of the outer door section.
3 Insert additional snap rings until the right door
is aligned. (Two snap rings are provided with
the unit.)
