LEVELING THE REFRIGERATOR AND ADJUSTING HEIGHT AND GAP OF THE DOORS

HOW TO LEVEL THE REFRIGERATOR

If the Refrigerator is put on a floor that is not level, it can cause a height difference between the doors.

Insert a Flat-Head (-) Screwdriver into the slot in the Leveling Leg Control Lever and adjust the level by turning the Control Lever clockwise or counter-clockwise. When you rotate the Lever clockwise, you raise the refrigerator. When you rotate the Lever counter-clockwise, you lower the refrigerator.

If the Refrigerator is not level back and front, put a solid panel (such as a plastic panel, a plastic ruler, etc.) on the floor where the rear legs will rest, and then fix it in place with plastic tape. When you push in the Refrigerator, make sure the rear legs rest on the panel.

If you have a wooden floor or similar soft floor, take care not to damage the floor when pushing the Refrigerator into place.

HOW TO ADJUST THE DOORS HEIGHT

If any one of the doors is lower than

the other:

• Check if the Refrigerator is level before adjusting the door.

• Adjust the door height difference by inserting a Snap Ring ( 1 ) as shown between the door and the

hinge. You can use the rings on the right side door of the fresh food compartment and both sides of the freezer compartment.

After checking the height difference, select one Snap Ring with a suitable thickness. Insert one Snap Ring only, Inserting two or more Snap Rings may cause the Snap Rings to slip out or make a rubbing noise.

Lift up the lower door and insert the Snap Ring into the space between the Door and the Hinge.

To avoid injury, insert or remove Snap CAUTION Rings carefully.

Keep the Snap Rings out of the reach of children and make sure that children do not play with them or put them into their mouths.

1 mm, 1.5 mm, 2 mm, and 2.5 mm Snap Rings come with the Refrigerator.

If the Refrigerator is level before you load it with food, the Refrigerator may become unbalanced due to the weight of the food. If this occurs, adjust the level again using the same procedure.

If you raise the door too far, it can rub against the Top Cover.
