Changing the door hinging

Before building the appliance in, you will need to decide on which side the door is to be hinged. If left hand door hinging is required, follow the instructions below.

To change the door hinging you will need the following tools:

a cross-slotted screwdriver,

a flat-bladed screwdriver,

a selection of Torx screwdrivers,

a spanner.

^Open both appliance doors.

^Remove covers a, b and c and caps d with a screwdriver.

^Slightly loosen fixing screws e at the top, middle and bottom of the appliance.

^Push each of the doors outwards and take them off their hinges.

^Unscrew fixing screws e completely, and loosely screw them in at the top, middle and bottom on the opposite side of the appliance.

If you have put locking pins into the hinges to stop the door opening too far:

^Remove the locking pins from the top of the hinges.

To remove the soft-close mechanism

^Place the doors with the outer side downwards on a stable surface.

^Using a screwdriver, carefully push tension spring a outwards.

Warning. The soft-close mechanism snaps shut when dismantled. Danger of injury.
