Reversing the Doors
We recommend you seek the help of another individual to support the
doors whilst performing this operation.
•
Carefully prise off the cover cap for the top hinge and unscrew the
screws
fixing the top hinge to the appliance, you should support the
upper door
whilst doing this.
•
Carefully remove the upper door and place it somewhere safe. Note
that
there are spacers between the door and the hinge, note how
many and
their position.
•
Remove the central hinge by removing the 3 screws fixing it to the
appliance, support the lower door whilst doing this.
•
Remove the lower door and place it somewhere safe, again noting the
position of any spacer pieces.
•
Swap the previous top hinge to the opposite side at the bottom.
•
Refit the lower door using any spacers and position the central hinge
on
the door. After removing the 3 cover caps, fix the hinge securely
to the
appliance.
•
Swap the previous bottom hinge to the opposite side at the top.
Refit
the upper door and the hinge fixing securely to the appliance.
•
Fit the central cover caps and top hinge cover pieces in place to
complete the process.
•
Unscrew all four slider brackets from the doors and swap them over
to
the side furthest from the new hinge positions, before the decor
door is
fitted.
Ensuring the door seals correctly:
It is normal for the seal to be compressed after the door has been reversed. With
the door closed, use a hair dryer to expand the seal and fill the gap between the
door and the body of the appliance.
Take care not to use the hair dryer too close to the appliance, which could
damage the seal. A distance of approximately 10cm should be adequate.
When completed, allow the seal and door to cool before touching them. Once
done, the seal should remain in position.
