Adjusting the refrigerator adjustable mount to keep it level
●
Installing the refrigerator on an unlevel floor or sinking of its leg(s) due to a floor which is not strong enough to support the weight of food
may cause a difference in level between the right and left doors.
This does not affect the refrigerator function. Adjust the refrigerator adjustable mount to keep it level according to the procedure listed
below if you want to correct it.
Correcting any left/right lean and lifting slightly the front side of the refrigerator until the door can close easily and completely.
To remove leg cover, hold both ends of it and pull
it towards you by applying some force.
The adjustable mounts, which are located in the front bottom corners of the refrigerator, can be adjusted by turning
them to level the refrigerator.
Turn the adjustable mounts to lower to the floor,
and then secure it at two (right and left) points.
Turn the adjustable mount on the opposite side of the
area where the door is lowered so that the Refrigerator
Compartment door will be horizontal.
The height of the door can be adjusted 1mm every one turn of the adjustable mount.
Insert the left and right pins of the
leg cover into the mounting holes to
attach the leg cover.
Depending on the material or strength of a floor on
which the refrigerator is installed or the weight of
food put in it, a door may sag in several days (about
five days) after the installation.
If this happens, adjust the parallelism between the
doors again.
