To level the doors using the adjustable lower
hinge (some models):
1 Before leveling either door, remove set screw that
locks door height into position. (The door cannot
be adjusted without set screw removed).
2 If the refrigerator door is lower than the freezer
door, raise the refrigerator door by turning the
adjustment screw clockwise using a 7/16 inch
wrench. (See illustration.)
3 If the freezer door is lower than the refrigerator
door, raise the freezer door by turning the
adjustment screw clockwise using a 7/16 inch
wrench. (See illustration.)
4 After leveling, verify door stop contacts lower hinge
and top of door does not contact upper hinge
through full movement of door (from fully closed to
fully open).
5 Reinstall set screw, locking the door height.

Door 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 nal positioning of your

refrigerator:

 • Allfourcornersofthecabinetmustrestrmlyon

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).

touching the cabinet on all four sides.
