- Remove the wood base with a 1/2" socket or open end wrench and discard the shipping bolts and brackets. Use an appliance cart to move the refrigerator near the front of the enclosure. To allow the refrigerator to be rolled into position, ensure the front feet are retracted with a 1/2" open end wrench. Front and rear leveling can be done from the front once the refrigerator is in position.
Important: If the refrigerator has been on its back or side, it must stand upright for a minimum of 24 hours before connecting power.
- Plug the power cord into the grounded outlet. Temporarily lift the anchor bracket away from the top of the refrigerator. It may be helpful to temporarily tape the front of the anchor bracket to the top of the enclosure so it does not obstruct moving the refrigerator into position. Roll the refrigerator into position, ensuring the water line does not interfere underneath and the power cord does not interfere at the back. Slack in the power cord may be taken up in the space around the water filter.
Important: If the floor is not level, it may be necessary to level the refrigerator prior to rolling it into the enclosure. See Step 6 on leveling to temporarily tilt the refrigerator. Final leveling can be done from the front.
- Lift the top grille and align the slots in the upper cabinet with the holes in the anchor bracket. Install anchor bolts and any washers (from Step 2) with a 1/2" socket or open end wrench but do not tighten until leveling is complete.

natural_image
Line drawing of a cabinet or rack with hanging fixtures and a door (no text or symbols)Important: If the mounting holes do not align with the slots in the top of the cabinet behind the top grille, it may be necessary to roll the refrigerator out of the enclosure, loosen the anchor bracket screws on the back wall, slide the bracket left or right, and retighten the screws.
Step 5 — Connect Water Line
- Place the sleeve and nut on the household water line under the refrigerator and fasten it to the connection at the end of the tubing with a 1/2" open end wrench. The sleeve and nut are located in the plastic bag with the literature. Do not over-tighten. Check all water line fittings for leaks.
