Refrig of the year: Kenmore Elite 74033 Refrigerator
Consumer Reports Rated: Excellent

Hello Charles,

Just when I'm thinking Sears SERVICE is NOT some sort
of sad/bad joke... you put in a Kenmore Elite Model number...

continued search found your Owners Manual... Pages 10 & 16 are what you want

The front should be slightly higher than the rear to aid in door closing... (page 10)

Your refrigerator has two front leveling legs-one on the right and one on the left. Adjust the legs to alter the tilt from front-to-back or side-to-side. If your refrigerator seems unsteady, or you want the doors to close more easily, adjust the refrigerator's tilt using the instructions below: NOTE: Tools Required: 11/16" wrench or flat blade screwdriver.
1. Turn the leveling leg to the left to raise that side of the refrigerator or to the right to lower it. It may take several turns of the leveling leg to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Having someone push backward against the top of the refrigerator takes some weight off of the leveling legs. This makes it easier to adjust the legs.
2. Open both doors again and check to make sure that they close easily. If the doors do not close easily, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by turning both leveling legs to the left. It may take several more turns, and you should turn both leveling legs the same amount... (page 16)

`` After that...

All you have to do to maximize that efficiency is keep the closure area free of pizza boxes, ice cubes or errant frozen food bags.

Hope this was helpful...

It is not a matter of adjusting the doors. It is a matter of adjusting the legs so that the front legs are taller than the back. This causes the entire refrigerator to tilt toward the back, which is what makes the doors close by themselves. Your installer should have done this for you, as it differs between locations. It takes at least 2 people to do this: one person tilts the refrigerator back by pushing on the front of the freezer door, and the other person carefully rotates the front legs of the refrigerator until they lengthen about 1/2 inch - each! You might have to slide the whole refrigerator forward to give you some space behind it to allow tilting. Don't adjust the rear legs - not needed unless someone has unthreaded them in error, or for some unknown reason.

Hi,

Please clarify if the dishwasher is tilting forward when both the trays are out.

If so there are ways to install the machine so that it will not tilt. If your dishwasher is installed under the kitchen bench and there is a gap on top, the machine will tilt from the weight of dishes once the trays are rolled out.

The legs are adjustable, therefore, free the hoses and power cord. Pull the machine out so that you can untwist the legs to a height suitable to minimise the gap. Just leave enough space to allow you to push the machine back in with ease. You can always pack in cardboard or phoam later when machine is in.
If after legs are heightened and you still have a big gap, the you need to get to pieces of timber cut on either top edge to fill the gap.
There are specialty brackets (e.g. L-shaped brackets) which you can buy and screw into the cabinet walls to hold machine in.
Some machines have holes on the side or top to allow you to screw in from the wall of machine into the cabinet. However, I do not believe Electrolux models have this.
Let me know if I have misunderstood your problem.

Your washer has self adjusting rear legs . Tilt the machine foreward and look at the back legs . If one is stuck in , use a screwdrive and pry it out till both legs are in the out position . Set washer back down slowly and the rear legs will automatically adjust .

Some units are self leveling,by pushing the frig back (tilting it back)if this is not the case you adjust the front legs down manualy buy lifting the front up.

Try pushing back as you work the switch forward and backward. The most likely problem is a stuck runner. Remove the two front bolts and the two rear nuts from the seat legs and tilt the seat backwards to clean and lubricate the runners

Your refrig has legs you can adjust down ... this will tilt the refrig to the back so it will close be itshelf...

hope it helps let me know if it helps

I dont knowthe year ,that should be stamped on the id plate. As for tilt and trim----- in the lowest position the leg will only move slowly out and up that is when it is in the trim mode, after that it goes into the tilt mode and the leg travels considerably faster, this works going up and down,putting the leg down, it will travel faster until the last foot or so then it goes into the trim mode automaticaly and travels slower but with more power---you cant split them.It needs the extra power to be able to"trim"" the boat whilst it has the water pressure against it at ,say 25 knots. To test what i am saying ,puthe leg down as far as it will go ,stand on the anti cavitation plate and push the button to raise the leg .You will see it will only traveh ashort way out and up be fore stopping because it doesnt have the extra power to lift you as it did in the first foot and a half.thatis the system and you cant change it if that is unclear take it to a dealer ,he may explain it better---------"youdoit"

This machine has self adjusting legs in the rear. Tilt the machine forward and see if you can hear the spring loaded legs adjust in the back if not they may need some lubrication and some help. tap on legs with hammer gently and they will usually release. Front legs have screw adjustments and very important locking nut which 99 out of 100 installers wont use. Thank you

The back legs are usually not adjustable. Adjust the front legs & lock them with the lock nuts, at the lowest level, that is the machine tilts towards the front. Adjust further if there is any shake when you try with your hands.

You could also check to see if any springs or shocks have become loose. Refer manual.
