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.

5 CONNECT POWER

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

interior lights are on.

CAUTION:

• After power has been established, turn the

Master Power switch to the O (OFF) position.

6 MOVE INTO

INSTALLATION SPACE
