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
Door

or wrench.
3.
Have someone
hold the door in place or put a spacer
between
