No, you must not use an extension cord or adapter plug; the refrigerator must be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle.
Open the doors, remove the toe grille, and turn the roller adjusting bolt with an adjustable wrench, socket wrench, or nutdriver until the refrigerator is level.
Do not use harsh cleaners or razor blades, as they can scratch the appliance surface.
