POSITIONING THE
REFRIGERATOR TO ENGAGE
THE ANTI-TIP FLOOR AND
BASE BRACKETS
Before pushing the refrigerator into the opening,
plug the power cord into the receptacle and con-
nect waterline (if equipped). Check for leaks.
Locate the refrigerator’s RH side and move back
approximately in line with the RH side of the cab-
inet opening, W. This should position the anti-tip
floor bracket to engage the anti-tip base bracket
on the refrigerator.
Gently roll the refrigerator back into the cabinet
opening until it comes to a complete stop. Check to
see if the refrigerator front lines up with the cabinet
front face. If not, carefully rock the refrigerator for-
ward and backward until engagement occurs and
you notice that the refrigerator is fully pushed up
against the rear wall.
If Applicable: Adjust the rear (and front) wheel
height settings to fully engage the rear anti-tip
brackets, while also aligning the refrigerator front
with the cabinet front face.
