2. Adjust the leveling legs to level and align the refrigerator from
left to right and front to back so that the refrigerator is level
and aligned with the cabinets.
3. Continue adjusting all of the leveling legs to raise the
refrigerator until the top is within at least ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) of the
top soffit as shown.
NOTE: If an anti-tip board has been used, adjust the leveling
legs until the top of the refrigerator is making contact with the
bottom of the anti-tip board(s). Do not crush the compressor
cover.

IMPORTANT: Adjust in small increments to keep from
damaging the cabinet trim and causing problems with the
door alignment or top grille fit. To avoid damage to the cabinet
or leveling legs, do not apply more than 50 inch-pounds
(5.65 Nm) of torque to the leveling bolts. The leveling legs can
be extended to a maximum of 1¹⁄₄" (3.18 cm) below the rollers.
4. After leveling the refrigerator, again use a straight edge or
4 foot level across the front of the refrigerator installation
blocks to the cabinets to check that the refrigerator is still
flush.
Install Refrigerator and Panels
IMPORTANT: Jenn-Air is not responsible for the removal or
addition of molding or wood overlay panels that would not allow
access to the refrigerator for service.
Install Top Grille Filler (standard installation only)
IMPORTANT: The grille panel height allows the necessary airflow
for refrigerator performance. The top grille filler hides the upper
compartment cover behind the top grille. If you choose to modify
the recommended grille panel dimensions, performance will be
compromised.
Custom Wood Panel Models
1. In the custom made (1" x width of grille panel) wood filler
¹¹⁄₁₆
piece, drill a hole " from each edge.
NOTE: Make sure the hole is centered in the 1" thickness of
the wood piece.
