Level and Align Refrigerator

WARNING
Tip Over Hazard
Refrigerator is top heavy and tips easily when not
completely installed.
Keep doors taped closed until refrigerator is
completely installed.
Use two or more people to move and install
refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death or serious injury.
IMPORTANT: All four leveling legs must contact the floor to
support and stabilize the full weight of refrigerator. Rollers are for
moving refrigerator and not for permanent support.
After moving the refrigerator to its final location:
1. Use a ⁵⁄₁₆" socket driver to turn the leveling bolts clockwise to
extend the legs to the floor as shown. The rollers should be
off the floor.

2. Adjust the leveling legs to level and align the refrigerator from
left to right and front to back so that the refrigerator is level
and aligned with the cabinetry. The cabinetry surface must be
plumb for the ideal fit of the refrigerator side trim.
3. Continue adjusting all of the leveling legs to raise the
refrigerator until the top is within at least 1" (2.54 cm) of
the top soffit.

NOTE: If an anti-tip board has been used, adjust the leveling
legs until the top of the refrigerator is within ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) of
the bottom of the anti-tip board as shown. Do not crush the
compressor cover.

IMPORTANT: Adjust in small increments to keep from
damaging the cabinet trim and causing problems with
the door alignment or top grille fit. To avoid damage to
the cabinet or leveling legs, do not apply more than
50 inch-pounds (5.65 Nm) of torque to the leveling
bolts. The leveling legs can be extended to a maximum
of 1¹⁄₄" (3.18 cm) below the rollers.
4. For Overlay models, additional adjustments may be needed
after the custom panels are installed.
