2REVERSING THE DOOR SWING (CONT.)

3REMOVE THE FRESH FOOD DOOR

3.1 Tape the door shut with masking tape.

3.2Using a 5/16″ hex-head socket screwdriver and a 5/16″ open-end wrench, remove the two screws holding the center hinge (and the shim glued to it) to the cabinet. Lift the center hinge to free its pin from the socket in the top of the door, and set hinge and screws aside. Be careful not to lose the center hinge spacer and washer.

3.3Remove the tape and tilt the door away from the cabinet. Lift the door from the pin in the bottom hinge bracket. (If the plastic washer sticks to the door bottom, put it back on the hinge.)

3REMOVE THE FRESH FOOD DOOR (CONT.)

3.5Transfer the two screws from the opposite side of the cabinet to the screw holes vacated by the center hinge removal.

3.6Transfer the washer (if your model has one) to the opposite side.

3.7Take one of the screws removed in step 2 and start it in the outermost screw hole on the opposite side. Do not drive it all the way down—leave enough space under the screw head for thickness of shim and bracket.

4REVERSING THE HARDWARE

4.1Move the bottom hinge bracket (and shim glued to it) and plastic washer from the right side to the left side.
