Door Closing and Door Alignment

The base grille covers the leveling screws and roller assemblies

located at the bottom of the refrigerator cabinet below the

freezer door or drawer. Before making adjustments, remove the

base grille and move the refrigerator to its final location.

1. Remove the two screws fastening the base grille to the

cabinet, and set the screws aside. Grasp the grille and pull it

toward you.

2. Move the refrigerator to its final location.

NOTE: To allow the refrigerator to roll easier, raise the

leveling legs off the floor by turning the leveling screws

counterclockwise. The front rollers will be touching the floor.

3. So the doors will close easier, use a ¹⁄₄" hex driver to turn

both leveling screws clockwise. This will raise the front of the

refrigerator tilting it slightly downward to the rear. Turn both

leveling screws the same amount.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the

refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws. This

makes it easier to turn the screws.

4. Open and close the doors to make sure they close as easily

as you like. If not, increase the tilt by turning both leveling

screws clockwise. It may take several turns of the leveling

screw to allow the doors to close easier.

5. Check for door alignment. If one door is lower than the

other, adjust the leveling screw, on the lower side of the

refrigerator. Using a ¹⁄₄" hex driver, turn the screw clockwise

to raise that side of the refrigerator until the doors are

aligned. It may take several turns of the leveling screw to

raise the refrigerator.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the

refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling screws. This

makes it easier to turn the screws.

6. Make sure the refrigerator is steady. If the refrigerator

seems unsteady or rolls forward when the door or drawer is

opened adjust the leveling screws. Using a ¹⁄₄" hex driver,

turn the leveling screw on each side clockwise until the

rollers are up and the leveling feet are firmly against the

floor.

7. Replace the base grille by aligning the holes in the grille

with the holes in the cabinet and fasten using the screws

removed in Step 1.

REFRIGERATOR USE

Using the Controls

The temperature controls are located at the top front of the

refrigerator or freezer compartments.

Temperature Controls

For your convenience, the temperature controls are preset at the

factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the

controls are still set to the recommended setting as shown.

Recommended Setting “4”

IMPORTANT:

■ The recommended setting should be correct for normal

household refrigerator use. The controls are set correctly

when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream

is firm.
