Page 5

Remove the Doors

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect power before removing doors.

Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.

1.Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power.

2.Open both doors to 90°. Remove the base grille by removing the two screws, then pulling out on the outside corners. See Graphic 1.

NOTE: The doors must only be opened to 90°. If they are opened all the way, the base grille will not come off.

3.Disconnect the water tubing, located behind the base grille on the freezer door side. The dispenser tubing runs through the door hinge, and must be disconnected in order to remove the door.

NOTE: On models with the ice storage bin on the door, there are two water tubing connections, as shown. On models with the ice storage bin inside the freezer, there is only one water tubing connection.

■Style 1: Press the colored outer ring against the face of fitting and pull the water tubing free. See Graphic 2A.

NOTE: Keep the water tubing connector attached to the tube that runs underneath the freezer. The door cannot be removed if the connector is still attached to the tube that runs through the door hinge.

■Style 2: Firmly pull on the clasp to release the tube, then pull the water tubing free. See Graphic 2B.

NOTE: Keep the clasp attached to the tube that runs underneath the freezer.

4.Disconnect the wiring, located behind the base grille on the freezer door side. See Graphic 3.

On models with the ice storage bin on the door:

NOTE: There are two wiring bundles that run underneath the freezer - a large bundle with a large grommet and two white plugs at the end, and a small bundle with a small grommet and one yellow plug at the end.

■Remove the P-clamp using a ¹⁄₄" hex-head socket wrench. Remove the small wiring bundle from the P-clamp.

■Remove the wiring clip using a ¹⁄₄" hex-head socket wrench.

■Pull the electrical housing out from under the refrigerator. Disconnect the wiring plugs from the housing.

■Gently pull the large wiring bundle (with two white plugs) through the routing plate.

On models with the ice storage bin inside the freezer:

NOTE: The wiring configuration is simpler than what is shown in Graphic 3. There is only one wiring bundle with one wiring plug, and there is not a routing plate.

■Remove the wiring clip using a ¹⁄₄" hex-head socket wrench.

■Pull the electrical housing out from under the refrigerator. Disconnect the wiring plug from the housing.

5.Close both doors and keep them closed until you are ready to lift them free from the cabinet.

6.Use a ³⁄₁₆" hex key to remove the top left hinge screws as shown. See Graphic 4.

IMPORTANT: Do not remove either screw A.

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard Use two or more people to lift the freezer door. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

7.Lift freezer door straight up off bottom hinge. See Graphic 5. The water tubing and wiring remain attached to the freezer door and pull through the bottom left hinge.

NOTE: This may require two people - one to lift the door and another to feed the water tubing and wiring through the hinge.

On models with the ice storage bin on the door:

■Be sure the hole in the hinge is clear of obstructions, then gently pull one water tube through the hinge. (Avoid kinking the tube.) Next, gently pull the other water tube through the hinge, again avoiding kinks. Finally, gently pull the wiring bundle (including the grommet and wiring plugs) through the hinge.

On models with the ice storage bin inside the freezer:

■Be sure the hole in the hinge is clear of obstructions, then gently pull the water tube through the hinge. (Avoid kinking the tube.) Next, gently pull the wiring bundle (including the grommet and wiring plug) through the hinge.

IMPORTANT: Rest the door on its side on a soft, clean surface, such as a towel, blanket or piece of cardboard. This will help avoid damaging the door, water tubing and wiring.

8.Use a ³⁄₁₆" hex key to remove the top right hinge screws as shown. See Graphic 6.

IMPORTANT: Do not remove either screw A.

9.Lift the refrigerator door straight up off bottom hinge.

IMPORTANT: Rest the door on its side on a soft, clean surface, such as a towel, blanket or piece of cardboard. This will help avoid damaging the door.

10.It may not be necessary to remove the bottom hinges to move the refrigerator through a doorway. Both bottom hinges have similar construction.

■If necessary, use an internal star drive or a ³⁄₈" hex-head socket wrench to remove the bottom hinges. See Graphic 7.

IMPORTANT: The leveler brackets are mounted behind the hinges. If you remove the hinges, make sure that the leveler brackets are replaced when reinstalling the hinges.
