IMPORTANT: To aid in door alignment and closing, there
is a shim located between the hinge and the cabinet.
When the hinge is removed, the shim may fall out of
place. If this occurs, set the shim aside so it can be put
back in place when the hinge is reconnected later.

Replace the Doors and Hinges
1. Replace both bottom hinges, if removed. Make sure the shim
is between the hinge and cabinet. Tighten screws.
2. Before replacing the freezer door on the bottom left hinge,
feed the wiring with the yellow plug and the water dispenser
tubing through the hinge. Assistance may be needed.

hinges are being replaced. Do not depend on the door magnets to
hold the doors in place while you are working.
3. Align and replace the top left hinge as shown.
Tighten screws.
4. Reconnect water dispenser tubing and wiring.
IMPORTANT: Do not intertwine the water tubing and wiring
bundles when reconnecting them.

fire, or electrical shock.
8. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Leveling and Door Closing
Your refrigerator has two front adjustable rollers — one on the
right and one on the left. If your refrigerator seems unsteady or if
you want the doors to close more easily, adjust the refrigerator's
tilt using the instructions below:
1. Move the refrigerator into its final location.
2. Remove the base grille to locate the two leveling screws,
which are part of the front roller assemblies on each side.
See Graphic 8 .
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator
takes some weight off the leveling screws and rollers. This makes
it easier to adjust the screws.
3. Use a ¹⁄₂" (13 mm) hex-head socket wrench to adjust the
leveling screws. Turn the leveling screw to the right to raise
that side of the refrigerator or turn the leveling screw to the left
to lower that side. It may take several turns of the leveling
screws to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Both leveling feet should be snug against the floor, and
the rollers should not touch the floor. This keeps the
refrigerator from rolling forward when opening the doors.
