STEP 4 ANTI-TIP PROCEDURE
(CONT)
Connect Power Cord:
• Before pushing the refrigerator into the opening, plug
the power cord into the receptacle. 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.
• Gently push refrigerator into the opening with hands
against front corners.
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”
(10.16 cm). The refrigerator should be level and
plumb with cabinetry.
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.
