5.Reconnect water tubing and wiring.

IMPORTANT: Do not intertwine the water tubing and wiring bundles when reconnecting them.

Push the larger ⁵⁄₁₆" (7.94 mm) water tube into the blue fitting until it stops, then push the smaller ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) water tube into the green fitting until it stops. See Graphic 2.

Reinstall the P-clamp around the small wiring bundle (with one yellow plug), then replace the P-clamp on the top screw hole of the routing plate. See Graphic 3.

Gently route the large wiring bundle (with two white plugs) through the hole in the routing plate, so that the wiring runs behind the right side of the routing plate. See Graphic 3.

NOTE: The large wiring bundle should always remain below the small wiring bundle.

Reconnect the wiring plugs to the electrical housing, then push the housing back under the refrigerator. Align the left hole in the front lip of the housing with the right hole in the refrigerator's base crossbar. See Graphic 3.

Reinstall the wiring clip over the grommets. First install the smaller grommet into the top of the clip, then install the larger grommet into the bottom of the clip (closest to the screw hole). See Graphic 3.

Align the clip's screw hole with the left hole in the electrical housing and the right hole in the crossbar, and screw in the clip using a single screw. Tighten screw. See Graphic 3.

IMPORTANT: Once connected, the wiring bundles should not be taut. Some flexibility is needed to allow the freezer door to open properly.

6.Replace the refrigerator door by lifting the door onto the bottom right hinge.

7.Align and replace the top right hinge as shown. See Graphic 6. Tighten screws.

8.Replace the ice storage bin and any adjustable door or utility bins.

9.Plug refrigerator into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Leveling and Door Closing

Your refrigerator has two adjustable front feet — one on the right and one on the left. In most cases, the refrigerator should be steady when both feet are touching the floor. If your refrigerator seems unsteady or if you want the doors to close more easily, adjust the refrigerator's tilt using the instructions below:

1.Move the refrigerator into its final location. If necessary, open both doors to 90° and remove the base grille. See Graphic 1.

2.The two leveling feet are located on the brackets on each side of the product. See Graphic 8.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling feet. This makes it easier to make adjustments.

3.Use a ¹⁄₄" open-ended or adjustable wrench to adjust the leveling feet. Turn the leveling foot to the left to raise that side of the product, or turn it to the right to lower that side of the product.

4.Open both doors again and check that they close as easily as you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by turning the leveling feet to the left. It may take several more turns, and you should turn both leveling feet the same amount.

NOTE: Whenever you need to move the refrigerator, turn the leveling feet to the right until they are no longer touching the ground. This will allow the refrigerator to roll more easily.

Door Alignment

A refrigerator that is not level from side-to-side may appear to have doors that are not properly aligned. If the doors appear this way, use the instructions in the previous section to check the leveling.

The doors are designed to be slightly different heights when the refrigerator is empty, in order to account for the weight of food that will be placed on the doors. If the doors are still not aligned after checking the leveling and loading the refrigerator with food, follow the steps below to adjust the door alignment.

1.If necessary, open both doors to 90° and remove the base grille. See Graphic 1.

2.Locate the alignment screw on the bottom hinge of the refrigerator door. See Graphic 9.

3.Use a ⁵⁄₁₆" open-ended or adjustable wrench to turn the screw. To raise the refrigerator door, turn the screw to the right. To lower the door, turn the screw to the left.

4.Check that the doors are even at the top. If necessary, continue to turn the alignment screw until the doors are aligned.

5.Open both doors to 90°. Replace the base grille. See Graphic 1.

HandleInstallation

Style 1 - Setscrews

PARTS INCLUDED: Handles (2), hex key, spare setscrews

NOTE: Handle mounting setscrews are preinstalled in the handle.

1.Remove handles from packaging inside the refrigerator.

NOTE: To avoid damaging the handles, place them on a towel or other soft surface.

2.Open the refrigerator door. Place the handle on the shoulder screws (located on the front of the refrigerator door), with the setscrews facing the freezer door.

3.Firmly push the handle into the door, but do not push down. Insert the short end of the hex key into each setscrew, and tighten each screw.

IMPORTANT: When the screw feels tight, tighten it an additional quarter-turn. The handle is not properly installed without this extra tightening.

4.Open the freezer door and repeat the previous steps to install the freezer door handle, with the setscrews facing the refrigerator door.

5.Save the hex key and all instructions.

To Remove the Handles:

1.Use a hex key to loosen the setscrews, then pull the handle off of the door.

2.If necessary, use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the shoulder screws from the door.
