KitchenAid 22.7 Cu. Ft. Counter Depth Side-by-Side Refrigerator with Exterior Ice and Water インストールガイド

Leveling and Door Closing

Your refrigerator has two adjustable front feet — one on the right

and one on the left. In most cases, the refrigerator should be

steady when both feet are touching the floor. If your refrigerator

seems unsteady or if you want the doors to close more easily,

adjust the refrigerator's tilt using the instructions below:
1.

Move the refrigerator into its final location. Open both doors

to 90°. Remove the base grille by removing the two screws,

then pulling out on the outside corners.

NOTE:

The doors must only be opened to 90°. If they are

opened all the way, the base grille will not come off.

The two leveling feet are located on the brackets on each side

of the product.

NOTE:

Having someone push against the top of the refrigerator

takes some weight off the leveling feet. This makes it easier to

make adjustments.
3.

Use a ¹⁄₄" open-ended or adjustable wrench to adjust the

leveling feet. Turn the leveling foot to the left to raise that side

of the product, or turn it to the right to lower that side of the

product.
NOTE:

Both leveling feet should be snug against the floor, and

the rollers should not touch the floor. This keeps the

refrigerator from rolling forward when opening the doors.

Open both doors again and check that they close as easily as

you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by

turning the leveling feet to the left. It may take several more

turns, and you should turn both leveling feet the same

amount.

Use a bubble level to check the leveling of the refrigerator.

NOTE:

Whenever you need to move the refrigerator, turn the

leveling feet to the right until they are no longer touching the

ground. This will allow the refrigerator to roll more easily.

Door Alignment

A refrigerator that is not level from side-to-side may appear to

have doors that are not properly aligned. If the doors appear this

way, use the instructions in the previous section to check the

leveling.
The doors are designed to be slightly different heights when the

refrigerator is empty, in order to account for the weight of food

that will be placed on the doors. If the doors are still not aligned

after checking the leveling and loading the refrigerator with food,

follow the steps below to adjust the door alignment.
1.

If necessary, open both doors to 90° and remove the base

grille.

Locate the alignment screw on the bottom hinge of the

refrigerator door.

Use a ⁵⁄₁₆" open-ended or adjustable wrench to turn the screw.

To raise the refrigerator door, turn the screw to the right. To

lower the door, turn the screw to the left.

Check that the doors are even at the top. If necessary,

continue to turn the alignment screw until the doors are

aligned.

Open both doors to 90°. Replace the base grille.

FILTERS AND ACCESSORIES

Install Air Filter

(on some models)

On some models, your refrigerator's accessory packet includes

an air filter, which must be installed prior to use. On some models,

the air filter is already installed at the factory.

The air filter reduces the buildup of odors. This helps to maintain a

cleaner environment inside the refrigerator.
