■

Slowly tilt the panel to attach it to the adhesive pads on 
the panel mounts. Firmly press against the corners of the 
door to ensure that the panel is properly attached to the 
adhesive pads.

3.

Loosen the panel alignment tool's screw and remove the tool 
from the refrigerator door by sliding it to the right and off of 
the door.

4.

Mount the panel alignment tool onto the freezer door. Repeat 
Step 1 in refrigerator. 

5.

Attach the freezer door. Repeat Step 2 in refrigerator.

6.

Loosen the panel alignment tool's screw, and remove the tool 
from the freezer door by sliding it to the right and off of the 
door.

7.

Open both doors and fasten the panel mounts to the door 
panels. All eight panel mounts (four on each door) should be 
fastened in the same manner:

■

Use a Phillips screwdriver and two 13 mm screws (one at 
the top of the mount and one at the bottom of the mount) 
to fasten the mount to the door panel.

■

Locate the two slotted headless screws, and use a flat-
blade screwdriver to turn the bottom headless screw 
clockwise. This loosens the panel mount brace, which is 
between the panel mount and the door panel. Remove 
and discard the panel mount brace.

8.

Finalize the placement of the door panels by using the 
alignment screws on the panel mounts.

A. Top slotted headless screw
B. Bottom slotted headless screw
C. Screw

NOTE: 

Make sure that the door panels do not come into 

direct contact with any of the surrounding cabinets or cabinet 
doors. Such contact could prevent the refrigerator and/or 
freezer door(s) from closing properly.

■

The top slotted headless screw (A in the picture) adjusts 
the spacing between the door and the door panel. Use a 
flat-blade screwdriver to make adjustments. Turn the 
screw clockwise to increase the space between the door 
and door panel and counterclockwise to decrease the 
space.

NOTE: 

When the doors are closed, there should be a 

minimum of 1 mm of space between the rear face of the 
door panels and the front face of the frame. Use the top 
slotted headless screw to add more space if necessary.

■

The bottom slotted headless screw (B in the picture) 
adjusts the horizontal (left-to-right) alignment of the door 
panel. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to turn the screw 
clockwise and loosen it. Slide the panel to the left or right 
as desired, and then tighten the screw by turning it 
counterclockwise.

NOTE: 

Do not slide the panel more than 2.5 mm in either 

direction. If you slide the panel too far, the panel mount 
may not properly fasten to the door panel.

■

The screw (C in the picture) at the bottom of the panel 
mount adjusts the vertical (top-to-bottom) alignment of 
the door panel. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to make 
adjustments. Turn the screw clockwise to raise the door 
panel and counterclockwise to lower the door panel.

NOTE: 

To raise or lower the door panel, you may need to 

first loosen the slotted headless screws. If you do, make 
sure to re-tighten them after making the desired vertical 
adjustment.
