Your refrigerator has two front leveling legs (one
on the right side and one on the left). Adjust the
legs to alter the tilt from front-to-front or side-to
-side. If the refrigerator seems unsteady, or you
want the doors to close more easily, adjust the
refrigerator's tilt using the instructions below:
1.
Turn the leveling legs by inserting a flat blade
screwdriver in the holes located in the leveling
screws. Turn the leg clockwise (

)to lower it. It may take several turns
of the leveling leg to adjust the tilt of the
refrigerator.

top of the refrigerator takes some weight off
the leveling legs. This makes it easier to adjust
the legs.
2.
Open both doors again 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 counter-
clockwise. It may take several more turns, and
you should turn both leveling legs the same
