Adjustthe Door

Depending on your model, your refrigerator may have two

(Style 1) or four (Style 2) adjustable rollers located at the base of the refrigerator. If your refrigerator seems unsteady or you want the door to close easier, adjust the refrigerator's tilt using the instructions below.

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

1.Move the refrigerator into its final location.

2.Remove the base grille. Grasp the grille firmly and pull it toward you.

3.Remove the bracket covers. Insert the eraser end of a pencil in the cover notch. Apply slight downward pressure to the notched side of the cover while swinging it off.

4.Using a screwdriver or ³⁄₈" hex driver, turn the roller adjustment screw(s) on each side to raise or lower that side of the refrigerator.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator takes some weight off the adjustment screws and rollers. This makes it easier to turn the screws.

To raise, turn the roller adjustment screw to the right.

To lower, turn the roller adjustment screw to the left.

NOTE: It may take several turns of the roller adjustment screw to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.

5.Open the door again to make sure that it closes as easily as you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by turning both front adjustment screws to the right. It may take several more turns, and you should turn both adjustment screws the same amount.

6.Lower the stabilizing foot by turning it clockwise until it is firmly against floor.

7.Turn the front adjustment screws counterclockwise to allow the full weight of the refrigerator to rest on the stabilizing feet.

8.Replace the bracket covers. Place each bracket cover into the outer edge, swing the cover toward the cabinet and snap it into place.

9.Replace the base grille.
