Instructions for Reversing Door Swing

This refrigerator allows the owner to change the door swing if desired. The hinging of the doors can be changed to the opposite side anytime you wish.

TOOLS REQUIRED

Phillips Screwdriver - Size #2

Two Slotted Screwdrivers

REMOVING THE DOORS

1.Turn ELEC-OFF-GAS switch, located on the control panel, to OFF. Remove all items of food, juices, etc., from the doors. Remove the juice rack and storage bins. Close both doors before removing hinge pins.

2.Remove the top hinge pin using one of the slotted screwdrivers. Remove the center hinge pin (both pieces) using the two slotted screwdrivers; one on each end of the pin. Lastly, remove the bottom hinge pin. Be sure to save the pins for reassembly later. (See Figure 12)

3.Remove the upper door by opening the door slightly and pulling the bottom of the door away from the refrigerator. Allow enough room to slide the door down off of the upper hinge pin shoulder. (See Figure 6)

4.Remove the lower door by opening it slightly and pulling the top of the door away from the refrigerator. Allow enough room so

the door can be lifted up and off of the bottom hinge pin shoulder (See Figure 7). Be sure to save the hinge plates along with the

spacer used in the middle hinge bracket, for reassembly later.Figure 6 (See Figures 12 - A, B, and C)

REMOVING AND RELOCATING THE HINGE BRACKETS

5.Remove the middle hinge bracket by using the #2 Phillips screwdriver and taking out the three screws holding it in place. Next, remove the three screws on the opposite side corresponding to the center hinge location. Relocate them in the holes just exposed by the removal of the hinge bracket. Attach the hinge bracket to the refrigerator where the hole plugs previously were. Do not tighten screws completely. (See Figure 8)
