To carry out the following opera-
tions, we suggest that this be
made with another person that
will keep a firm hold on the doors
of the appliance during the oper-
ations.
To change the opening direction of the
door, do these steps:
• Remove the plug from the power sock-
et.
• Tilt back the appliance carefully so that
the compressor cannot touch the floor.
• Remove the plinth (1).
• Remove the cap (2) and position it on
the opposite side.
• Unscrew the hinge (3) and remove the
door.
• Unscrew the lower pin and the washers
(3)
• Position the pin and the washers (6) on
the opposite side (7).
• Unscrew the other hinge (5)

• Fit the handle on the opposite side
and put the plastic caps (contained in
the instructions bag) in the free holes.
• Do a final check to make sure that:
– All screws are tightened.
– The door opens and closes correctly.
If the ambient temperature is cold (i.e. in
Winter), the gasket may not fit perfectly
to the cabinet. In that case, wait for the
natural fitting of the gasket.
In case you do not want to carry out the
above mentioned operations, contact
the nearest After Sales Service Force.
The After Sales Service specialist will car-
ry out the reversibility of the doors at
your cost.
