Keep in mind that depending on how your fridge is oriented in the coach, side to side may actually mean front to back, and vice-versa.
You can get free level apps in the apple store or playstore that will give you a pretty good indication of how out of level you are.
If you have a residential fridge, someone will have to answer that.

Good answer!

Thanks for the replies. I'm doing work on the underside of the MH and it will be jacked up a while, is the reason I ask. I can jack it up either way, but wasn't sure about fridge. Seems the consensus is it doesn't matter if the fridge is turned off. It's the original fridge (14 years old) and has worked perfectly all this time. (KNOCK WOOD!) thanks again for the help.

Unless you have frame mounted jacks your better bet is to use solid wood or plastic blocks under the wheels to raise the unit. Wood is cheap and easy, cut on a 45 degree bevel.

The point is that despite what some folks think the unit has to be really uncomfortable to be in danger. Nominal 2 inch lumber is around 1-5/8 to 1-3/4 inch thick so you may notice some slope but level within those step sizes is way more than adequate.
