REVERSING THE DOOR SWING
(some models)
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.
For two-door units:
Take off the upper hinge cover from the top door and
remove the screws that hold the top hinge.
Lift the hinge straight up to free the hinge pin from the
socket in the top of the door.
Lift the top door to free its bottom socket from the hinge
pin on the central hinge bracket.
Remove the screws to the central hinge to free its pin
from the top of the lower door.
Lift the door up and away from the bottom hinge
pin.
Remove the screws to the bottom hinge.
Remove the decorative caps from the opposite
side and install the bottom hinge. Plug the holes
from the original side with the decorative caps.
Replace door onto the pin on the bottom hinge,
then install the central hinge into lower door.
Insert screws into the central hinge and plug the
holes on the reverse side.
Replace the upper door onto the central hinge pin.
Insert screws into the top hinge and tighten.
For one-door units:
Take off the upper hinge cover from the door and
remove the screws that hold the top hinge.
Lift the hinge straight up to free the hinge pin from
the socket in the top of the door.
Lift the door up and away to free its bottom
socket from the hinge pin.
Remove the screws to the bottom hinge.
Remove the decorative caps from the opposite side and plug the holes from the
original side with the decorative caps.
Move the bottom hinge to the opposite side and
tighten the screws. Install any lock washers or nuts
if they were used in the original installation.
Replace door onto the hinge pin on the bottom
hinge. Place top hinge pin into door. Insert screws
into the top hinge and tighten.
