Failure to do so can result in death or serious injury.

IMPORTANT: 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.

After moving the refrigerator to its final location:

1.Use a ⁵⁄₁₆" socket driver to turn the leveling bolts clockwise to extend the legs to the floor as shown. The rollers should be off the floor.
