When the refrigerator is placed on a level ground, the
front of the refrigerator is higher than the back, and
there is a certain height difference (about 2.5mm), so

to the fl oor until it just makes contact with the fl oor.
Whenever you need to move the appliance, be sure
to wind the foot back up so that the appliance can roll
freely and be sure to reset it when reinstalling.

cupboards. The top of the refrigerator should be on the
