Remove tape and any labels from your refrigerator

before using (except the model and serial

WITH QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS

Move the refrigerator into its final position. Use a

level and check that the refrigerator is level.

NOTE: If your refrigerator has an automatic ice

maker, do this before attaching the ice maker to a

water supply. If you move the refrigerator after the

water line has been hooked up you may loosen or

disconnect the fittings.

Your refrigerator has two leveling screws, one on

each side.

To level your refrigerator:

Check to see if the rear of the refrigerator is

level. Shimming may be necessary if your

refrigerator is placed on an uneven surface.

2. Adjust the front of the refrigerator by removing

the base grille (see page 30).

3. Turn the leveling screw clockwise on the side

that you want to raise. If you want to lower that

side, turn the screw counterclockwise.

4. Make sure that the doors are even. If the freezer

door is lower than the fresh food door, turn the

leveling screw on the freezer side clockwise. If

the fresh food door is lower, turn the leveling

screw on that side clockwise.

5. Replace the base grille.

If you are not hooking up an ice maker, connect

the refrigerator to the electrical supply after

leveling, and then see page 14.
