Reversing Door Swing
RELOCATING THE TRAVEL LATCHES
8.Remove both travel latches by taking out the two screws holding each to the refrigerator. Use the #2 Phillips screwdriver. Remove the two screws from each of the corresponding holes on the opposite side of the refrigerator. Relocate them in the two holes just exposed by the removal of the latches. Attach each latch in the new position so the tab points towards the opposite side of the refrigerator. Do not tighten screws completely. (See Figure 9)
9.Turn the door over so that the end previously at the bottom is now at the top. Relocate the bottom of the door on the bottom hinge pin shoulder. Close door and align holes in top hinge brackets. The magnetic gasket will hold the door in place. Before reinstalling the top door, check to insure that the spacer is in place. (See Figures 10 and 12 - C)

10.Reposition the upper door in a similar manner as described in Step #9, except the top of the door must be engaged into the hinge pin shoulder before setting the door in place. (See Figure 11)
11.Starting at the top, replace the hinge pins using the slotted screwdrivers as in the removal procedure. Tighten all screws.
ALIGNMENT OF THE DOORS
12.Align the upper door with the lower so that there is a parallel gap between the doors and around the frame. Adjust the doors to the cabinet so the gaskets seal but do not bind. Tighten the screws holding the hinge brackets in place.
13.Door Seal: The door seal can be checked by closing the door on a long narrow strip of paper. A slight drag should be noticed when the paper is pulled out from between the gasket and the cabinet. Repeat the process around all four sides of the door. If the door does not seal properly, readjust the hinge brackets.
14.Position the travel latches so that they secure the doors when closed but do not prevent the doors from closing properly. Tighten the two screws in each travel latch.
15.Replace the juice rack and storage bins into the door. Make sure that the milk bins (wider storage bins) are installed in the lowest door position.
