ADJUSTMENTS AND REPAIR
Leveling
IMPORTANT
It is extremely important that the unit is level for maximum production.
If it is not:
Doors or drawers will not work properly.
In ice maker units, uneven sized cubes will be formed. Ice production will reduce and water spilling into the storage area can occur causing the ice in the bin to melt prematurely (Figure 32).
Remember, floors surrounding a drain have a tendency to slope toward the drain.
1.Use a level to check the unit from front to back (Figure 33) and from side to side (Figure 34).
2.If the unit is not level, adjust the feet on the corners as necessary (Figure 35). Rotating the feet clockwise raises the unit.
Check after each adjustment and repeat the previous steps as necessary until the unit is level.

Door Alignment - Échelon Models
The unit’s door is aligned at the factory before shipment. However, its alignment could have been disturbed during shipment or during door panel installation.
IMPORTANT
Properly aligned, the door should be 1/8" below the top of the unit’s cabinet, NOT flush with the top (Figure 36).
1/8" |

1.Compare the top edge of the door to the top edge of the cabinet.
2.If the door edge is 1/8" below and parallel to the top of the cabinet, it is adjusted correctly. If it is not, note whether the side opposite the hinge needs to be moved UP or DOWN, and use the following procedure.
