Unable to Level

Possible Solutions

Why is it important to level the refrigerator?

A refrigerator that is not leveled correctly and/or does not have the doors adequately aligned could have some of the following concerns:

  • Doors unable to close or seal properly
  • Frost build-up or moisture problems
  • Temperature fluctuation 
  • Unable to adequately aligned the doors
  • Door switch unable to actuate correctly

Is the floor under the refrigerator level?

Check to make sure the floor under the refrigerator is level. If it is not, shims may need to be used to level the refrigerator properly. 

How to level the refrigerator

A properly leveled refrigerator will help ensure its proper operation. When leveling the refrigerator, you level from front to back and side to side.  For specific leveling information, please refer to your Owner's Manual or Installation Instructions.   Learn how to use your phone to level household appliances.
