Refrigerator and Freezer Drawers

1. With the drawer closed, place the handle onto the shoulder

screws so that the setscrews are facing down toward the

floor.

2. Firmly push the handle toward the drawer until the handle

base is flush against the drawer.

3. Insert the short end of the hex key into the left-hand hole and

slightly rotate the hex key until it is engaged in the setscrew.

4. Using a left to right motion, tighten the setscrew a quarter-

turn at a time just until it begins to contact the shoulder

screw. Do not fully tighten.

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to fasten the right-hand setscrew to the

shoulder screw.

6. Once both setscrews have been partially tightened as

instructed in the previous steps, fully tighten both setscrews.

IMPORTANT: When the screws feel tight, tighten them an

additional quarter-turn. The handle is not properly installed

without this extra tightening.

7. Save the hex key and all instructions.

Remove the Handles

1. While holding the handle, insert the short end of the hex key

into a setscrew hole and slightly rotate the hex key until it is

engaged in the setscrew.

2. Using a right to left motion loosen the setscrew a quarter-turn

at a time.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the other setscrew. Slowly pull the

handle away from the door or drawer.

4. If necessary, use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the

shoulder screws from the door.

Refrigerator Leveling, Door Closing and Alignment

The base grille covers the adjustable brake feet and roller

assemblies located at the bottom of the refrigerator below the

freezer drawer. Before making any adjustments, remove the base

grille and move the refrigerator to its final location.

Tools Needed: ¹⁄₄" hex nut driver

Tools Provided: ¹⁄₈" hex key wrench

1. Remove the base grille. Using both hands, grasp the grille

firmly and pull it toward you. Open the freezer drawer to

access the brake feet.

NOTE: To allow the refrigerator to roll easier, raise the brake

feet by turning them counterclockwise. The front rollers will

be touching the floor.

2. Move the refrigerator to its final location.

3. Using the ¹⁄₄" hex nut driver, lower the brake feet. Turn them

clockwise, until the rollers are off the floor and both brake feet

are snug against the floor. This keeps the refrigerator from

rolling forward when opening the refrigerator doors or freezer

drawer.

IMPORTANT: If you need to make further adjustments

involving the brake feet, you must turn both brake feet the

same amount to keep the refrigerator level.

4. Make sure the doors close easily. If you are satisfied with the

door opening and closing, skip the next section and go to

“Align the Doors.” If, however, the doors do not close easily

or the doors pop open, adjust the tilt.

To Adjust the Cabinet Tilt:

■ Open the freezer drawer. Use a ¹⁄₄" hex nut driver to turn

both brake feet clockwise the same amount. This will

raise the front of the refrigerator. It may take several turns

to allow the doors to close easier.

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the

refrigerator takes some weight off the brake feet. This

makes it easier to turn them.
