Changing the Direction of Opening the Door

If you find the direction of opening the door on your appliance inconvenient, you can change it. Holes on the opposite side have already been prepared in the factory.

Unscrew the kick-plate and remove it by pushing downwards.

Unscrew the lower hinge and take off the door together with the upper hinge washer.

Unscrew the upper hinge fastener and fix it on the opposite side of the appliance.

Take off, change and replace the door hinge fixture and the fixture plugs.

Put the door with the upper hinge washer on the upper hinge fastener.

Fix the lower hinge with washer on the new position.

Replace the cover plate of the lower hinge to the opposite side of the kick-plate and place it to the appliance.

In case your appliance is equipped with a handle mounted on the side of the appliance, take it off and replace it on the other side. Some screws are covered with caps. Take them off before undoing the screws.

Check the gasket, it shouldn't be creased and it should seal well.

Should the seal not adhere to the casing of the appliance perfectly, it will have to be heated from a suitable distance (by means of hair drier, for example) and lightly stretched to the required height.
