LEVELING THE REFRIGERATOR
IMPORTANT: All four leveling legs must con-
tact the floor to support and stabilize the full
weight of the refrigerator.
Base Grille Removal
1. Open the refrigerator doors.
NOTE: Do not remove the Tech Sheets fas-
tened behind the grille.
2. Remove the screws from the base grille
and remove the grille.
Adjusting The Rollers
The roller adjusting bolts are located behind
the base grille. The refrigerator has four adjust-
able rollers: two in front, and two in the rear.
There are two sets of roller adjusting bolts
found at the base of the refrigerator on each
side. The rear leveling bolt (1) is yellow, and
the front leveling bolt (2) is silver.
1. Use a 1/2 (12.70 mm) socket wrench to
adjust the leveling bolts. Turn the leveling
bolt to the right to raise that side of the
refrigerator, or turn the leveling bolt to the
left to lower that side. It may take several
turns of the leveling bolts to adjust the tilt
of the refrigerator.
2. Adjust the front leveling bolt so that the top
of the refrigerator is parallel with the cabi-
net above the refrigerator.
For standard cabinets, leave approximately
1/8 (3.18 mm) gap between the top hinges
and the cabinet.
For full-overlay cabinets, leave a 1/4 (6.35
mm) gap for leveling.
If you do not have a cabinet above the
refrigerator, adjust the refrigerator to make
it level.

NOTE: Be careful not to unscrew the leveling
bolts too much when lowering the refrigerator.
The bolt head will start to come away from the
refrigerator when it is in the lowest position. If
the bolt comes out of the rear roller bracket, the
compartment access cover on the back of the
refrigerator will have to be removed to reinstall
the bolt.
3. Adjust the rear leveling bolt and level the
refrigerator with the side cabinets, or with
the cabinet end panels.
4. If needed, use the four leveling bolts to
raise the refrigerator to close the gap
between the refrigerator top hinge, and
the cabinet opening. Check to make sure
that all four rollers still touch the floor, and
that the cabinet doors above the refrigera-
tor open all the way.
