Leveling
Rest all bottom corners 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:
While unit is laying on its back, note the location
of the 4 leg levelers installed at each corner.
These leg levelers will be used to level the unit
and to adjust the height. Use a carpenter's level
to level the appliance from front to back and side
to side. Adjust the plastic leveling feet in front,
½ bubble higher, so that the door closes easily
when left halfway open.
Leveling Instructions for Matching Tall
Refrigerator/Freezer Pair:
• Level door of first unit using all four levelers
and slide unit into place. Recheck for
levelness and adjust if necessary.
• Measure distance from floor to bottom of
door on first unit. Adjust and level second
unit so door height matches.
Leg Level Adjustments:
• One full turn of all four leg levelers will raise
door 5/32".
• Slide second unit into place leaving a
minimum gap of 3/16" between units for
door swing clearance.
• This last step may require at least one
extraction of the second unit to properly
align units in a "built-in" application.
