Level and Align Refrigerator

WARNING

Tip Over Hazard

Refrigerator is top heavy and tips easily when not completely installed.

Keep doors taped closed until refrigerator is completely installed.

Use two or more people to move and install refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death or serious injury.

IMPORTANT: All four leveling legs must contact the floor to support and stabilize the full weight of refrigerator. Rollers are for moving refrigerator and not for permanent support.

After moving the refrigerator to its final location:

1.Use a ⁵⁄₁₆" socket driver to turn the leveling bolts clockwise to extend the legs to the floor as shown. The rollers should be off the floor.

IMPORTANT: Adjust in small increments to keep from damaging the cabinet trim and causing problems with the door alignment or top grille fit. To avoid damage to the cabinet or leveling legs, do not apply more than 50 inch-pounds

(5.65 Nm) of torque to the leveling bolts. The leveling legs can be extended to a maximum of 1¹⁄₄" (3.18 cm) below the rollers.

2.Adjust the leveling legs to level and align the refrigerator from left to right and front to back so that the refrigerator is level and aligned with the cabinetry. The cabinetry surface must be plumb for the ideal fit of the refrigerator side trim.

3.Continue adjusting all of the leveling legs to raise the refrigerator until the top is within at least 1" (2.54 cm) of the top soffit.

NOTE: If an anti-tip board has been used, adjust the leveling legs until the top of the refrigerator is within ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) of the bottom of the anti-tip board as shown. Do not crush the compressor cover.

Install Classic Series Custom Panels

IMPORTANT: KitchenAid is not responsible for the removal or addition of molding or decorative panels that would not allow access to the refrigerator for service.

2.Remove the screws that attach the handles to the door frame.

3.Slide the decorative door panels into the door frames.

4.If needed, route the door panels or install a filler panel between the doors and the decorative panels. See the “Classic Series Custom Panels” section in “Installation Requirements.
