7 LEVEL REFRIGERATOR

All models have 4-point leveling. The front and back
are supported by leveling legs. Both are accessible
from the front of the refrigerator.
To level the back of the refrigerator, turn the 1/2

hex nut located above the front wheels. Turn
clockwise to raise or counterclockwise to lower
the refrigerator.

For front leveling, use a 7/16

open-end wrench.

Adjust height of refrigerator to match

installation cutout opening 83-1/2

to 84-1/2

.

The refrigerator should be level and plumb with
cabinets.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The refrigerator must be level.
If it is not, the doors may not align evenly at
the top. See Step 16.

CAUTION:

The rear leveling legs and front leveling legs
are limited to a maximum height adjustment
of 1

. If the installation requires more than 84-1/2

height, the installer should elevate the refrigerator
on a sheet of plywood or runners. Cabinet trim
could be added across the top of the opening
to shorten the opening. If you attempt to raise
the refrigerator more than 1

, you will damage

the front and rear leveling legs.

a properly grounded receptacle. Set the
Master Power switch to the I (ON) position.

Master Power switch to the O (OFF) position.
