Leveling and Door
Alignment
Leveling
The refrigerator has two front leveling legs. Adjust
the legs to alter the tilt from front-to-back or side-
to side. If the refrigerator seems unsteady, or the
doors do not close easily, adjust the refrigerator’s
tilt using the instructions below:
1 Turn the leveling leg to the left to raise that
side of the refrigerator or to the right to lower
it. It may take several turns of the leveling leg
to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.
NOTE
• A flare nut wrench works best, but an open-end
wrench will suffice. Do not over-tighten.
2 Open both doors and check to make sure that
they close easily. If the doors do not close
easily, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the
rear by turning both leveling legs to the left. It
may take several more turns, and be sure to
turn both leveling legs the same amount.
Door Alignment (Standard Door
Model)
Both the left and right refrigerator doors have an
adjustable nut, located on the bottom hinge, to
raise and lower them to align properly.
If the space between the doors is uneven even
after the door bins are filled, follow the
instructions below to align the doors evenly:
Use the wrench (included with the owner's
manual) to turn the nut in the door hinge to adjust
the height. Turn the nut to the right to raise the
door or to the left to lower it.

manual) to turn the nut in the door hinge to adjust
the height. Turn the nut to the right to raise the
door or to the left to lower it.
