Installation Instructions

REVERSING THE DOOR SWING (if desired)

BEFORE YOU START

Unplug the dryer from its electrical outlet.

1REMOVE THE DOOR ASSEMBLY

Remove the side hinge cap by opening the dryer door and removing the screw from behind the hinge (#8 x .375” tapping screw). Then using your hand, pop the hinge cap off the dryer.

1 x C Screw

Hinge cap

1REMOVE THE DOOR ASSEMBLY (cont.)

Close and hold the door, remove the 2 hinge screws (#10 x 0.75” tapping screws). Pull the door away from the dryer front panel.

2 x B

Screws

2DISASSEMBLE THE DOOR ASSEMBLY

Lay the door down on a soft, protected, flat surface so that the inner part faces upward (door resting on the handle side).

Remove the 7 screws (#10 x 1.125” tapping screws) located around the perimeter of the door.

7 x A Screws

Turn the door assembly over and separate the chrome cover from the inner door. Put the inner door aside on a soft, protected flat surface.
