DOOR AND HANDLE INSTRUCTIONS Door and Drawers Depending on the width of your doorway, you may need to remove the doors to move the refrigerator into your home.

Remove food and any adjustable door or utility bins from doors. � Keep the refrigerator doors closed until you are ready to lift them free from the cabinet. Provide additional support for the refrigerator door while the hinges are being removed. Do not depend on the door gasket magnets to hold the door in place while you are working.
