Installation Instructions
REVERSING THE DOOR SWING
WARNING
Follow all steps when reversing
the door swing. Failure to follow these instructions,
leaving off parts, or overtightening screws, can lead
to the door falling off and result in injury and property
damage.
IMPORTANT NOTES
When reversing the door swing:
• Read the instructions all the way through before
starting.
• Tighten all hinge screws but avoid over-tightening to
prevent stripping.
• Handle parts carefully to avoid scratching paint.
• Set screws down by their related parts to avoid
losing them.
• Provide a non-scratching work surface for the doors.
CAUTION
Lifting Hazard
The Fresh Food and Freezer doors are heavy. Use
both hands to secure the doors before lifting.
IMPORTANT: Once you begin, do not move the
cabinet until door-swing reversal is completed.
These instructions are for changing the hinges from
the right side to the left side—if you ever want to
change the hinges back to the right side, follow these
same instructions and reverse all references to left
and right.
