1.Place top of cardboard carton or plywood under refrigerator. Remove dolly.

2.Do not remove protective film.

3.Move the refrigerator straight back and evenly into the opening. Check to make sure that water tubing is not kinked and power supply cord is on top of refrigerator next to the cover.

Lower Leveling Legs

NOTE: 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.

Use socket wrench to turn leg levelers on both sides of refrigerator to the right (clockwise) until refrigerator weight is supported by leveling legs. The rollers should be off the floor. To avoid cabinet damage, do not apply more than 50 in./lbs.

(58 cm/kg) of torque to the leveling legs.
