Adjust the Doors, Install Air Filter | Whirlpool WRT771RWYW guide

Adjust the Doors

IMPORTANT: To comply with American Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines, fully retract the rollers into the cabinet to lower the refrigerator.

Door Closing

Your refrigerator has two front adjustable rollers – one on the right and one on the left. If your refrigerator seems unsteady or you want the doors to close easier, adjust the refrigerator's tilt using the following instructions:

1.Remove the base grille. See the Base Grille graphic in “Refrigerator Doors.” The two leveling screws are part of the front roller assemblies which are at the base of the refrigerator on either side.

2.Use a socket driver to adjust the leveling screws. Turn the leveling screw to the right to raise that side of the refrigerator or turn the leveling screw to the left to lower that side. It may take several turns of the leveling screws to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws and rollers which makes it easier to adjust.

3.Open both doors again to make sure they close as easily as you like and that they stay closed. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by turning both leveling screws to the right. It may take several more turns.

NOTES:

■To keep the refrigerator level, you should turn both leveling screws the same amount.

■Some models have an additional leveling leg located in front of the right-hand roller assembly. After adjusting the refrigerator to the desired tilt, turn this leveling leg until it is firmly against the floor as shown.

Door Aligning

If the space between your doors looks uneven, you can adjust it using the following instructions:

1.Pry off the top hinge cover.

2.Loosen the top hinge screws using a ⁵⁄₁₆" socket or wrench.

3.Have someone hold the door in place or put a spacer between the doors while you tighten the top hinge screws.

4.Replace the top hinge cover.

Install Air Filter

(on somemodels)

On some models, your refrigerator's accessory packet includes an air filter, which must be installed prior to use. On some models, the air filter is already installed at the factory.

The air filter reduces the buildup of odors. This helps to maintain a cleaner environment inside the refrigerator.

Installing the Air Filter (on some models)

The filter should be installed behind the vented door, which is located (depending on your model) along either the rear or left interior wall near the top of the refrigerator compartment.

1.Remove the air filter from its packaging.

2.Lift open the vented door.

3.Snap the filter into place.

Air Filter Status Indicator (on some models)

Style 1 - Install Manual Air Filter Status Indicator

The filter comes with a status indicator, which should be activated and installed at the same time the air filter is installed.

REPLACE

MONTHS

1.Place the indicator face-down on a firm, flat surface.

2.Apply pressure to the bubble on the back of the indicator, until the bubble pops to activate the indicator.
