Door reversal
Before carrying out the operations described below,
pull out the mains plug from the wall socket.
Carry out door reversal as follows:
1. Gently lay the appliance on its back with the top
held away from the floor by 5-8 cm (2-3 inches) of
packing.
2. Remove the bottom door hinge (5).
3. Remove the door (4) by opening it and pulling it
gently downwards to remove it from the top hinge
pin (2).
4. Unscrew the top hinge pin (2) from the top hinge (1)
and replace it in the opposite hole on the left hand
side.
5. Unscrew the foot at the base (6) of the appliance
and refit it on the opposite side.
6. Refit the door and the bottom hinge to the left hand
side.
7. Remove the door handle (3) and fit it on the
opposite side. Cover the holes left open with the
plugs already provided.
When the bottom hinge is screwed in, a certain
amount of force is exerted on the screws.
It is therefore advisable to lubricate the screw tips
before starting this operation.
Important
After completion of the door reversal operation,
verify that the door gasket is sealing onto the
cabinet.
If the ambient temperature is cold (i.e. in
Winter), the gasket may not fit perfectly to the
cabinet. In that case, wait for the natural fitting
of the gasket or accelerate this process by
heating up the part involved with a normal
hairdryer on a low setting.
