IMPORTANT NOTES
When reversing the door swing:
NOTE:
Door swing is not reversible on stainless steel
models.
Read the instructions all the way through before
starting.
Parts are included in the door hinge kit.
Handle parts carefully to avoid scratching paint.
Set screws down by their related parts to avoid
using them in the wrong places.
Provide a non-scratching work surface for the doors.
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.
Once door swing is finalized, ensure the logo badge is
properly aligned and permanently secured to the door
by removing the adhesive cover on the back side.
NOTE:
A replacement logo badge is included
in the hinge kit.
Unplug the refrigerator from its electrical outlet.
Empty all door shelves, including the dairy
compartment.

REMOVE THE REFRIGERATOR DOOR
Tape the door shut with masking tape.
Remove the hinge cover on top of the
refrigerator door by carefully prying it
up with a putty knife, if necessary.
Using a 5/16
socket ratchet/driver, remove
the bolts securing the top hinge to the cabinet.
Then lift the hinge straight up to free the hinge
pin from the socket in the top of the door.
Carefully remove the door thimble from inside
the socket. This will be used again when
reinstalling the door on the other side.
