Door Closing and Alignment

Door Closing

Your refrigerator has 2 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 instructions below:

1. Plug refrigerator power cord into a 3-prong grounded

outlet. Move the refrigerator into its final position.

2. Remove the base grille (see “Base Grille” earlier in this

section). The two leveling screws are part of the front
roller assemblies which are at the base of the
refrigerator on either side.

3. Use a screwdriver 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. This makes it easier to adjust the screws.

4. Open both doors again and check to make sure that

they close as easily as you like. If not, tilt the
refrigerator slightly more to the rear by turning both
leveling screws to the right. It may take several more
turns, and you should turn both leveling screws the
same amount.

5. Replace the base grille.

Door Alignment

If the space between your doors looks uneven, you can
adjust it using the instructions below:

1. Pry off the top hinge cover.

2. Loosen the top hinge screws using a

⁵⁄₁₆-inch socket or

wrench.

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

between the doors while you tighten the top hinge
screws.

4. Replace the top hinge cover.
