Door Opening
To level the doors using the adjustable
lower hinge:
The refrigerator
doors are designed to shut
by
themselveswith!n
a 20 degree opening.
Your refrigerator
should be positioned to
allow easy access to a counter or table when
removing food. For best use of drawers and
freezer baskets, the refrigerator
should be
in a position where both the refrigerator
and
freezer doors can be fully opened.
Guidelines for final
positioning
of
your refrigerator:
= All four corners of the cabinet must rest
firmly on the floor.
• The cabinet should be level at the front
and rear.
• The sides should tilt 1/4inch (6 mm) from
front to back (to ensure that doors close
and seal properly).
• Doors should align with each other and be level.
All of these conditions
can be
met by raising
or lowering
the
adjustable
front
rollers,
To level the cabinet using the front
rollers:
1 Open both doors and remove the toe
grille (see "Toe Grille Installation
and
Removal"
in the "Installation"
section).
2 Close the doors and use a flat-blade
screwdriver or 3/s inch socket wrench to
raise or lower the front rollers.
3 Ensure both doors are bind-free with their
seals touching the cabinet on all four sides.
Some models will not have a set screw. For
those models follow steps 2 through 4.

1 Before leveling either door, remove set
screw that locks door height into position.
