Refrigerator Leveling, Door Closing and Alignment

The base grille covers the adjustable brake feet and roller assemblies located at the bottom of the refrigerator below the freezer drawer. Before making any adjustments, remove the base grille and move the refrigerator to its final location.

Tools Needed: ¹⁄₄" hex driver

Tools Provided: ¹⁄₈" hex key wrench

1.Remove the base grille. Grasp the grille firmly and pull it toward you. Open the freezer drawer to access the brake feet.

NOTE: To allow the refrigerator to roll easier, raise the break feet by turning them counterclockwise. The front rollers will be touching the floor.

2.Move the refrigerator to its final location.

3.Lower the brake feet, by turning them clockwise, until the rollers are off the floor and both brake feet are snug against the floor. This keeps the refrigerator from rolling forward when opening the refrigerator doors or freezer drawer.

IMPORTANT: If you need to make further adjustments involving the brake feet, you must turn both brake feet the same amount to keep the refrigerator level.

4.Make sure the doors close easily. If you are satisfied with the door opening and closing, skip the next section and go to “Align the Doors.” If, however, the doors do not close easily or the doors pop open, adjust the tilt.

To Adjust the Cabinet Tilt:

Open the freezer drawer. Use a ¹⁄₄" hex driver to turn both brake feet clockwise the same amount. This will raise the front of the refrigerator. It may take several turns to allow the doors to close easier.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator takes some weight off the brake feet. This makes it easier to turn them.

5.Make sure the doors are even at the top and that the space between the bottom of the refrigerator doors and the top of the freezer drawer is even. If necessary, align the doors.

To Align the Doors:

Keeping both refrigerator doors closed, pull out the freezer drawer. Locate the bottom hinge pin of the right-hand refrigerator door. The alignment screw is inside the bottom hinge pin.

Insert the short end of the ¹⁄₈" hex key wrench (packed with the Door Handle Installation Instructions) into the bottom hinge pin until it is fully engaged in the alignment screw.

To raise the refrigerator door, turn the hex key to the right. To lower the door, turn the hex key to the left.

Continue to turn the alignment screw until the doors are aligned.

6.Make sure the refrigerator is steady. If the refrigerator seems unsteady or rolls forward when the door or drawer is pulled open, adjust the brake feet.

To Steady the Refrigerator:

Open the freezer drawer. Using a ¹⁄₄" hex driver, turn both brake feet clockwise the same amount until the brake feet are snug against the floor. Check again. If not satisfied, continue to adjust the brake feet by half turns of the screw until the refrigerator does not roll forward when the drawer is opened.

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

7.Replace the base grille by aligning the ends of the grille with the leveling assemblies on each side and snapping the grille into place.
