Leveling Your Refrigerator

Your refrigerator has a front and rear roller at the base of the
product on each side. All four rollers can be adjusted from the
front of the product. If your refrigerator seems unsteady or you
want the doors to close easier, adjust the refrigerator's tilt using
the instructions below:
1. Check the installation location to be sure that you have the
proper clearance for the refrigerator. (See the "Space
Requirements" section.)
2. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
3. Move the refrigerator into its final position.
4. Open the refrigerator and freezer doors to locate the leveling
bolts at the left and right of the refrigerator base. If your
refrigerator has a base grille, remove it (see "Base Grille"
earlier in this section).
NOTE: The top bolt will adjust the rear of the refrigerator, and
the bottom bolt will adjust the front of the refrigerator.
1. Rear Leveling Bolt
2. Front Leveling Bolt
5. Use a in. (12.70 mm) socket wrench to adjust the leveling
bolts. Turn the leveling bolt to the right to raise that side of the
refrigerator or turn the leveling bolt to the left to lower that
side. It may take several turns of the leveling bolts to adjust
the tilt of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Be careful not to unscrew the leveling bolts too much
when lowering the refrigerator. The bolt head will start to
come away from the refrigerator when in the lowest position.
If the screw does come out of the rear roller bracket, the
compartment access cover on the back of the refrigerator will
have to be removed to reinstall the bolt.
