MAKING MINOR DOOR ADJUSTMENTS
Remember, a level refrigerator is necessary for getting the doors perfectly even. If you need help, review the previous section on leveling the refrigerator.
When the freezer door is higher than the refrigerator door, adjust the refrigerator leg to level the two doors.
The following process is used when correcting the level of either door.
1.Open the refrigerator and freezer doors and remove the 3 screws and the front leg cover.
. Using the Allen wrench (1), turn the bolt (2) clockwise to raise the door or counterclockwise to lower the
door. Close the doors to check the level. Repeat step 3 until the doors are level.
. After the door is adjusted and the doors are leveled, thread the nut (3) down the bolt (2) until it touches the lower hinge (4). Tighten the bolt with the Allen wrench
(1) to lock the nut and screw in place.
NOTE: If the nut and bolt are not securely tightened, they can come loose, causing the doors to be misaligned.
