Door Reversal
Instructions
NOTE: Some models have “pocket” handles, which are re- cessed into the side of the door. On these models, only the hinges will need to be reversed.
Your refrigerator is equipped with reversible door hinges. Hinging of the door can be changed to the opposite side any time you wish. An envelope containing extra plastic hole plugs is included in some models. Turn the refrigerator control to OFF. Remove all food, bottles, and other items from the door. Begin with freezer door. Completely remove one door before beginning the other.
1.Refer to the Toe
Grille Instructions on page 13 to remove the Toe Grille (some models). Snap off hinge cover at top of cabinet (some models). With the freezer door closed, remove the two screws attaching upper hinge to cabinet. Lift the
hinge up and off. Be sure to save screws and hinge for reassembly later.
2.Open the freezer door enough to allow it to be lifted off the center hinge.
3.With the refrigera- tor door closed, remove center hinge pin. (Note the ar-
rangement of the up- per and lower wash- ers (some models) on
the hinge pin. The washers must be re- assembled later in the same manner.) Open refrigerator
door enough to al- low door to be lifted
off the lower hinge. Remove the two screws attaching the center hinge. The third outermost screw under the center hinge should be left in place. Save hinge, pin, and washers (some models) for reassembly later. Reinstall screws in original holes.
