Changing the door hinging

Caution. The upper door is not secure as soon as the upper hinge plate is removed.

^Close the upper door.

^Undo screws m in upper hinge plate n and pull it upwards and off.

^Carefully lift the upper door off and place it to one side.

^Make sure that you leave the hinge pin in the hinge plate in the middle of the appliance, as otherwise the lower door will be unsecured.

^Then fit cover h together with retainer i on the opposite side.

^Refit cover l on the opposite side.

Removing the lower soft-close door mechanism

^ Open the lower door.

^Prise open panel a from the soft-close mechanism and ease it off carefully from above bit by bit.

Take care not to damage the door seal.

If the door seal becomes damaged, the door will no longer close properly and cooling will be impaired.

^Slide panel a towards the appliance, and leave it hanging between the door and the appliance.

^Fit restraining clip b (supplied with the appliance) onto soft-close mechanism c.

The restraining clip stops the hinge from snapping shut. Do not remove the clip until told to do so.

^Carefully remove cover d from the side using a flat-bladed screwdriver.

^With the help of another person, tip the appliance back slightly.
