Cabinet Levelling & Refrigerator Door Alignment (if necessary)
Guidelines for final positioning of your refrigerator:
- All four corners of the cabinet must rest firmly on the floor.
- The front should be slightly elevated to ensure that doors close and seal properly.
- Doors should align with each other and be level. Most of these conditions can be met by raising or lowering the adjustable front rollers.
To level the cabinet using the front rollers:
1. Slightly open freezer drawer if the toe grill is installed. Lift the toe grille and gently pull forward.
2. Make initial cabinet adjustments by using the front roller height adjusting screws. Use a 3/8 inch socket wrench to turn the adjustment screws (1 per side). To raise: turn adjustment screw clockwise. To lower: turn adjustment screw counter clockwise. 3. Ensure both doors are bind-free with their seals touching the cabinet on all four sides and that cabinet is stable.
4. After unit is levelled, lower anti-tip leg using a 3/8 inch socket wrench until it firmly contacts the floor

To make final door height adjustments:
1. Open freezer drawer to make lower hinge visible.
2. Insert 6mm Allen wrench into the shaft of the lower hinge.
3. Adjust the height by turning clockwise or counterclockwise. Turning clockwise will lower the door. Turning counterclockwise will raise the door. Default setting is to the lowest height when you receive your appliance.

Adjust Flipper Mullion for proper connection with the mullion guide by ensuring the flipper mullion is folded and perpendicular to the fresh food door. If the mullion guide is not in the correct position, it could prevent the door from closing completely.
