STEP 5 LEVEL REFRIGERATOR

All models have 4-point leveling. The front is supported

by leveling legs, the rear is supported by adjustable

wheels. Both are accessible from the front of the

refrigerator.

• To level the back of the refrigerator, turn the 7/16” hex

nut located above the front wheels. Turn clockwise to

raise or counterclockwise to lower the refrigerator.

• For front leveling, use a 1-1/4” open-end wrench.

• Adjust height of refrigerator to match installation

cutout opening

83-1/2” (212.09

cm) to 84-1/2”

(214.63 cm). The

refrigerator should

be level and plumb

with cabinetry.

STEP 5 LEVEL REFRIGERATOR

(Cont.)

The rear leveling wheels and front leveling legs are

limited to a maximum height adjustment of 1” (2.54

cm). If the installation requires more than 84-1/2”

(214.63 cm) height, the installer should elevate

the refrigerator on a sheet of plywood or runners.

Cabinetry trim could also be added across the top of

the opening to shorten the opening. If you attempt to

raise the refrigerator more than 1” (2.54 cm), you will

damage the front leveling legs and the rear leveling

wheels.

STEP 6 SECURE UNIT TO WALL

• The “L” rod can be found in the upper left corner of

the unit in the access compartment. Look through the

access compartment to make sure the rod lines up

with the anti-tip bracket.

• There are 2 washers and a hair pin cotter with the rod.

Remove the washers and hair pin cotter from the end

of the rod.

• Rotate and move the

“L” rod into the slot in

the anti-tip bracket tab.

Once it is in the slot,

rotate the “L” rod so the

hook portion is pointing

down. The holes at the

front end of the rod

should be in a vertical

position.

• Pull out on the end of the

rod to make sure it is secure in the bracket.

• Locate the hole on the rod that is closest to the unit.

A hair pin cotter will be put through this hole to secure

the rod. If this hole appears to be too far away for a

snug fit against the unit, add the washers one at a

time until the pin will fit tightly into the hole.

• Align the straight section of the pin with the hole from

the underside of the rod. Push the pin up until it snaps

into position. Pliers may be used. NOTE: The hair pin

cotter must be vertical when this step is completed

to ensure the “L” rod is

engaged in the bracket.

• Check the rod for

tightness by pulling

forward. If the rod

moves, remove the hair

pin cotter and place

another washer on the

rod. Reinsert the pin.

STEP 7 ALTERNATE ANTI-TIP

PROCEDURE

The refrigerator must be secured to prevent tipping.

If the anti-tip bracket cannot be used, this alternate

procedure may be used to secure the refrigerator

against tip-over.

• Raise the grille panel to access case trim.

• Use a 3/16” bit to drill four evenly spaced clearance

holes through the metal top case trim.

• Use a 1/16” bit to drill to pilot holes through the metal

clearance holes and into the wood soffit. The holes

should be centered in the soffit or a 3/4” min. wood

brace. The brace spanning the enclosure must be

securely fastened to cabinets on both sides.

• Install four, 1-1/2” (3.81 cm) drywall screws into the

pilot holes.

• If no soffit above the unit, drill screws into adjacent

cabinets through the side case trim.

STEP 8 ADJUST DOOR SWING

NOTE: This refrigerator has a 3-position door stop.

When space does not allow the door to swing open

fully to 115°, you may change the door swing to

a 90° opening. A 130° door swing is available for

standard installation only. If used for flush installation,

damage will occur to wood panels. Skip this step if

door opening is satisfactory for your installation

situation.

• Lift the grille panel to access the wire cover trim.

• Remove screws on both sides of the wire cover trim

and rotate off.

• Use pliers to unscrew door stop and reinstall into the

90° or 130° position.
