Owner's Manual

• Cut a 2” x 4” block, 35” (88.9 cm) long and secure the
block to the mounting brackets provided using #12 or
#14 wood screws.
• Secure the bracket
with wood block to
the back wall so
that it is 84” (213.36
cm) from the
finished floor. Use
#12 or #14 wood
screws. See the
illustration.
• The screws must
penetrate at least
one inch into the
vertical wall studs.
• If metal wall studs, use self-tapping sheet metal
screws in place of wood screws.
IMPORTANT: When the refrigerator is installed under
a soffit or if there is not enough height for this method
of security, brackets cannot be used. Proceed to step
7 to level the refrigerator and then to step 8 to secure
refrigerator to cabinets.
The refrigerator must be
secured to prevent tipping.

STEP 7 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 84-1/2”
(214.63 cm). The refrigerator
should be level and plumb
with cabinetry.
NOTICE: 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. Make adjustments in small
increments.
STEP 6 ANIT-TIP PROCEDURE (Cont.)
Connect Power Cord:
• Before pushing the refrigerator into the opening, plug
the power cord into the receptacle. The water filter
guard will need to be removed for access (some
models). Remove the 3 screws holding it in place. If
access is still too tight, remove the 2 screws holding
the water filter bracket and move aside. Open the
grille panel and reach into the opening at the back
to grasp the power cord. Pull the power cord into the
opening as you push the refrigerator back. Secure
the bracket and guard with the original screws.
• Gently push refrigerator into the opening with hands
against front corners.
