Door opening

Your refrigerator should be positioned to allow easy
access to a counter when removing food. For best
use of drawers and freezer baskets, the refrigerator
should be in a position where both the refrigerator
and freezer doors can be fully opened.

Guidelines for final positioning of your
refrigerator:

• All four corners of the cabinet must rest firmly

on the floor.

• The cabinet should be level at the front and

rear.

• The sides should tilt ¼ inch (6 mm) from front

to back (to ensure that doors close and seal
properly).

• Doors should align with each other and be

level.

All of these conditions can be met by
raising or lowering the adjustable front
rollers.

To level the cabinet using the front rollers:

1 Open both doors and remove the toe grille

(see “Toe Grille Installation and Removal
in the “Installation” section).

2 Close the doors and use a flat-blade

screwdriver or

³⁄₈

inch socket wrench to raise

or lower the front rollers.

3 Ensure both doors are bind-free with their

seals touching the cabinet on all four sides.

NOTE

The refrigerator doors are designed to shut by
themselves within a 20 degree opening.
