Replace the Doors and Hinges
1. Replace both bottom hinges, if removed. Make sure that the
leveler brackets are assembled behind the hinges. Tighten
screws.
IMPORTANT: When the screws are tightened properly, there
should not be any gaps between the refrigerator, leveler
bracket and hinge.
NOTE: There are two wiring bundles that run underneath the
freezer - a large bundle with a large grommet and two white plugs
at the end, and a small bundle with a small grommet and one
yellow plug at the end.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to lift the freezer door.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
2. Before replacing the freezer door on the bottom left hinge,
feed the small wiring bundle through the hinge. Assistance
may be needed.
IMPORTANT: Do not feed the large wiring bundle through the
hinge. This bundle is intended to run directly from the door to
the connections beneath the freezer. Forcing the large bundle
through the hinge may damage the door and/or the wiring
and will keep the door from closing properly.
3. Feed both water tubes through the bottom left hinge, then
replace the freezer door on the hinge. Assistance may be
needed.
NOTE: Provide additional support for the doors while the top
hinges are being replaced. Do not depend on the door magnets to
hold the doors in place while you are working.
4. Align and replace the top left hinge as shown. See Graphic 4.
Tighten screws.
5. Reconnect water tubing and wiring.
IMPORTANT: Do not intertwine the water tubing and wiring
bundles when reconnecting them.
Water Connection Style 1: Push the larger ⁵⁄₁₆" (7.94 mm)
water tube into the blue fitting until it stops, then push the
smaller ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) water tube into the green fitting until
it stops. See Graphic 2A.
Water Connection Style 2: Push the black water tube
with the blue tip into the blue fitting until it stops. Close
the clasp around the tubing, making sure it snaps into
place. Repeat this process to connect the red-tipped
black water tube and the red fitting. See Graphic 2B.
Reinstall the P-clamp around the small wiring bundle
(with one yellow plug), then replace the P-clamp on the
top screw hole of the routing plate. See Graphic 3.
Gently route the large wiring bundle (with two white plugs)
through the hole in the routing plate so that the wiring
runs behind the right side of the routing plate. See
Graphic 3.
NOTE: The large wiring bundle should always remain
below the small wiring bundle.
Reconnect the wiring plugs to the electrical housing, then
push the housing back under the refrigerator. Align the left
hole in the front lip of the housing with the right hole in the
refrigerator's base crossbar. See Graphic 3.
Reinstall the wiring clip over the grommets. First install
the smaller grommet into the top of the clip, then install
the larger grommet into the bottom of the clip (closest to
the screw hole). See Graphic 3.
6 6 6 6 6 6
Align the clip's screw hole with the left hole in the
electrical housing and the right hole in the crossbar, and
screw in the clip using a single screw. Tighten screw. See
Graphic 3.
IMPORTANT: Once connected, the wiring bundles should
not be taut. Some flexibility is needed to allow the freezer
door to open properly.
6. Replace the refrigerator door by lifting the door onto the
bottom right hinge.
7. Align and replace the top right hinge as shown. See
Graphic 6. Tighten screws.
8. Replace the ice storage bin (on some models) and any
adjustable door or utility bins.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
9. Plug refrigerator into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Leveling and Door Closing
Your refrigerator has two adjustable front feet — one on the right
and one on the left. In most cases, the refrigerator should be
steady when both feet are touching the floor. 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. If necessary, open
both doors to 90° and remove the base grille. See Graphic 1.
2. The two leveling feet are located on the brackets on each
side of the product. See Graphic 8.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator
takes some weight off the leveling feet. This makes it easier to
make adjustments.
3. Use a ¹⁄₄" open-ended or adjustable wrench to adjust the
leveling feet. Turn the leveling foot to the left to raise that side
of the product, or turn it to the right to lower that side of the
product.
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.
4. Open both doors again and check that they close as easily as
you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by
turning the leveling feet to the left. It may take several more
turns, and you should turn both leveling feet the same
amount.
5. Use a bubble level to check the leveling of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Whenever you need to move the refrigerator, turn the
leveling feet to the right until they are no longer touching the
ground. This will allow the refrigerator to roll more easily.
