Installation Instructions
STEP 14 LEVEL THE REFRIGERATOR
Adjust the Rollers
The refrigerator can be leveled by adjusting the rollers, front and rear.
Rollers have three purposes:
•The rollers adjust so that the door closes easily when opened about halfway. (Raise the front about 5/8" [16 mm] from the floor.)
•Rollers adjust to allow the refrigerator to be firmly positioned on the floor and to prevent rocking when the doors are opened and closed.
•The rollers allow you to move the refrigerator from the wall for cleaning.
To Adjust the Rollers:
•Use a 3/8" hex socket or wrench to turn
the adjustment screws. Turn the screws clockwise to raise the refrigerator, turn counterclockwise to lower it.
•Use a 5/16" hex socket to turn the screws for
the rear rollers. Turn the screws clockwise to raise the refrigerator, counterclockwise to lower it.

Adjust the Leveling Legs
The leveling legs have two purposes:
•Leveling legs adjust so the refrigerator is firmly positioned on the floor and does not wobble.
•Leveling legs serve as a stabilizing brake to hold
the refrigerator securely in position during operation and cleaning. The leveling legs also prevent
the refrigerator from tipping.
Turn the leveling legs clockwise to raise the refrigerator, counterclockwise to lower it.
wCAUTION: To avoid possible personal injury or property damage, the leveling legs must be firmly touching the floor.
wPRUDENCE : Afin d’éviter toute blessure corporelle ou dommage matériel, les pieds de support doivent être en contact avec le sol.
STEP 15 LEVEL THE DOORS
If the doors are not evenly aligned at the top, the refrigerator door can be adjusted.
•Use a 7/16" hex socket or wrench to turn the door adjusting screw. Turn the screw to the right to raise the door, turn left to lower the door.

NOTE: A nylon plug is imbedded in the threads of the pin. The plug is designed to prevent the pin from turning. A wrench must be used to turn the pin.
•Turn the wrench one or two times. Open and close the refrigerator door to check alignment with the freezer door at the top. Adjust again if necessary.
