DOOR CLOSING AND ALIGNMENT
Door Closing
Your refrigerator has two front leveling screws--one on
the right and one on the left, If your refrigerator seems
unsteady or you want the doors to close easier, adjust the
Refrigerator's tilt using the instructions below:
1. Plug refrigerator power cord into a 3-prong grounded
outlet, Move the refrigerator into its final position,
2. Remove the base grille by pulling it straight out,
The two leveling screws are located at the bottom of
the refrigerator on either side,
3. Insert a flat screwdriver in slots to adjust the leveling
screws,Turn the leveling screw clockwise to raise that
side of the refrigerator or counterclockwise to lower it.
It may take several turns of the leveling screw to adjust
the tilt of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws,
This makes it easier to adjust the screws,
Door Alignment
If the space between your doors is uneven, follow the
instructions below to align the doors:
1. Pry off the top hinge cover.
2. Loosen the top hinge screws using a 10mm socket
or wrench,
3. Have someone hold the door in place or put a
spacer between the doors while you tighten the
top hinge screws,
4. Replace the top hinge cover.
4. Open both doors again and check to make sure that
they close easily. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more
to the rear by turning both leveling screws clockwise. It
may take several more turns, and you should turn both
leveling screws the same amount,
5. Replace the base grille,
