The base grille covers the leveling screws and roller assemblies
located at the bottom of the refrigerator cabinet below the
freezer door or drawer. Before making adjustments, remove the
base grille and move the refrigerator to its final location.
1. Remove the two screws fastening the base grille to the
cabinet, and set the screws aside. Grasp the grille and pull it
toward you.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws. This
makes it easier to turn the screws.

NOTE: To allow the refrigerator to roll easier, raise the
leveling legs off the floor by turning the leveling screws
counterclockwise. The front rollers will be touching the floor.
So the doors will close easier, use a 1/4" hex driver to turn
both leveling screws clockwise. This will raise the front of the
refrigerator tilting it slightly downward to the rear. Turn both
leveling screws the same amount.

Open and close the doors to make sure they close as easily
as you like. If not, increase the tilt by turning both leveling
screws clockwise. It may take several turns of the leveling
screw to allow the doors to close easier.
Check for door alignment. If one door is lower than the
other, adjust the leveling screw, on the lower side of the
refrigerator. Using a 1/4" hex driver, turn the screw clockwise
to raise that side of the refrigerator until the doors are
aligned. It may take several turns of the leveling screw to
raise the refrigerator.

Make sure the refrigerator is steady. If the refrigerator
seems unsteady or rolls forward when the door or drawer is
opened adjust the leveling screws. Using a 1/4" hex driver,
turn the leveling screw on each side clockwise until the
rollers are up and the leveling feet are firmly against the
floor.
Replace the base grille by aligning the holes in the grille
with the holes in the cabinet and fasten using the screws
removed in Step 1.
