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.

On Some Models

4. Replace the base grille.

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.

Caster Installation

Gather the required tools and parts before starting installation.

TOOLS NEEDED:

PARTS SUPPLIED:

1. Before you begin, turn the refrigerator control OFF.

2. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

3. Remove food and any adjustable shelves and bins from

refrigerator.

4. Open the lower compartment door and remove the base grille.

Remove the grille by grasping the grille with both hands, lifting up

and pulling bottom of the grille toward you.

5. Place the plastic skids (shipped with the refrigerator) on the floor

at least 3 ft (91.44 cm) apart. Lay a piece of cardboard or other

material over the skids. This will elevate the refrigerator to allow

for easier caster installation and also help to avoid scratching the

finish.

NOTE: If the skids have been discarded or are not available,

2" x 4" boards may be used.
