GE Top-Freezer Refrigerators GTR12 - Manuel (Page 7)

LEVELING LEGS
Adjustable legs at the front corners of the refrigerator
should be set so the refrigerator is firmly positioned on
the floor, and the front is raised just enough that the door
closes easily when opened about halfway.
To adjust the leveling legs, turn the legs clockwise to
raise the refrigerator, counterclockwise to lower it.
