Failure to follow the warnings below can result in damage to the dryer, property damage or injury to persons. • To avoid damage to the dryer or the door, support the door with a stool or box that fits under the door, or have an assistant support the weight of the door. • Always reverse the door BEFORE stacking the dryer on top of the washer. • Avoid dropping the door to avoid damage to the door or the floor. Tools Needed: flat blade screwdriver, Phillips screwdriver Before Starting 1. Unplug the machine or turn off the power supply at the main circuit before reversing the door. Open the dryer door.

Remove the four screws on the left door frame (hinge assembly). 3. Carefully lift out the hinge assembly, revealing the wire harness connector at the top of the hinge. Depress the center lock tab to disconnect the wire harness connector. 4. Rotate the hinge assembly 180 degrees and connect the wire harness to the connector in the bottom right side of the door. 5. Install the hinge assembly in the recess on the right side of the door, tucking the wire harness in the corner to make room. Insert and tighten the four screws. 6. Rotate the handle removed in step one 180 degrees and install it on the left side of the door using the two shorter screws. Use the longer screws to mount the door strike in the center. wWarning Be sure to support the weight of the door before removing the hinge screws. Removing the Door 1.
