Door Opening
NOTE
The refrigerator doors are designed to
shut by themselves within a 20 degree
opening.
Your refrigerator should be positioned
to allow easy access to a counter when
removing food. For best use of refrigerator
drawers and freezer baskets, the refrigerator
should be in a position where both can be
fully opened.
Levellng Freezer Door (if necessary)
To level the freezer door:
1. Check gasket seal around top,
bottom, and sides of freezer door.
2. If gasket is not sealed, open door and
slightly loosen four door screws (two
on each side) to allow door to rotate.

Level Refrigerator & Adjust Doors
(if necessary)
Guidelines for final positioning of your
refrigerator:
* All four corners of the cabinet must rest
firmly on the floor.
* The sides should tilt t/4 inch (6 mm) from
front to back (to ensure that doors close
and seal properly).
* Doors should align with each other and
be level.
Most of these conditions can be met by
raising or lowering the adjustable front rollers.
TO level the cabinet using the front rollers:
1. Slightly open freezer drawer. Lift the
toe grille and gently pull forward
(see illustration).
2. You can raise or lower each door. Use
a 3/8 inch socket wrench to turn the
adjustment screws (one per side).
