Your refrigerator has two front adjustable rollers -- one on the
right and one on the left. If your refrigerator seems unsteady or if
you want the doors to close more easily, adjust the refrigerator's
tilt using the instructions
below:
1. Move the refrigerator into its final position.
2. The two leveling screws are part of the front roller assemblies,
which are at the base of the refrigerator on either side (see
Graphic 8).
3. Use a hex-head socket wrench to adjust the leveling screws.
Turn the leveling screw to the right to raise that side of the
refrigerator or turn the leveling screw to the left to lower that
side. It may take several turns of the leveling screws to adjust
the tilt of the refrigerator (see Graphic 8).
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws and
rollers. This makes it easier to adjust the screws.
4. Open both doors again and check to make sure that they
close as easily as you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly
more to the rear by turning both leveling screws to the right. It
may take several more turns, and you should turn both
leveling screws the same amount.
5. Replace the base grille.
NOTE: Be sure to refasten the Tech Sheet behind the base grille.
Read all directions carefully before you begin.
IMPORTANT:
If you turn the refrigerator on before the water line is
connected,
turn the ice maker OFE
All installations must meet local plumbing code requirements.
Use copper tubing and check for leaks. Install copper tubing
only in areas where the household temperatures
will remain
above freezing.
Tools required:
Flat-blade screwdriver, 7_ein. and V2in. open-end
wrenches or two adjustable wrenches, V4in. nut driver and drill
bit, hand drill or electric drill (properly grounded).
NOTE: Your refrigerator dealer has a kit available with a V4in.
(6.35 mm) saddle-type
shutoff valve, a union, and copper tubing.
Before purchasing, make sure a saddle-type
valve complies with
your local plumbing codes. Do not use a piercing-type
or 3/lein.
(4.76 mm) saddle valve which reduces water flow and clogs more
easily.
Cold water
supply
Connect the ice maker to a cold water line with water pressure
between 30 and 120 psi (207-827 kPa). If you have questions
about your water pressure, call your utility company.

Connecting to Water Line
Unplug refrigerator or disconnect
power.
Turn OFF main water supply. Turn ON nearest faucet long
enough to clear line of water.
Locate a V2 in. to 1V4in. (1.25 cm to 3.18 cm) vertical COLD
water pipe near the refrigerator.
NOTE: Horizontal pipe will work, but drill on the top side of
the pipe, not the bottom. This will help keep water away from
the drill and normal sediment from collecting in the valve.
