If it is necessary to move refrigerator through narrow doorways, follow
these steps to remove the handles and/or refrigerator and freezer doors.

To Remove Handles:

Full-length Trim

1. Using a putty knife, carefully slide the corner of the blade under the trim. Slide

blade down until you find the trim lock. Carefully manuever the blade against the
trim lock 

from the side

 as shown. 

Note:

 Pressing down on the trim lock from

above will not release it.

2. Carefully push the putty knife firmly against the trim lock and twist gently. The trim

lock will snap free from the door. (Each trim piece will have two (2) trim locks.)

3. Grasp trim and pull up away from handle using a slight side-to-side motion.
4. Remove screws attaching handle to door.
5. Repeat those steps for each handle end. Keep screws and trim pieces.
6. To replace handles, line up handle with screw holes, insert screws and tighten.

Slide upper and lower trim piecesback on handle ends, and snap trim locks back
into holes on door front.

To Remove Doors

Before removing doors, be sure the freezer control is  turned to OFF.  Remove all food
from the doors and unplug the refrigerator.  Remove the toe grill.

Trace around hinges with a soft lead pencil. This will make it easier to realign the
doors when they are replaced. Completely remove one door before starting removal
of the other, as follows.

1. Open door to door stop position (135°) and remove upper hinge screws.  DO NOT

remove upper hinge from door.

2. Carefully lift door off of lower hinge.
3. Remove lower hinge bolts and lower hinge.

Store doors in a safe place until the refrigerator is moved to the desired location. Keep
all hardware for reinstallation.
