Door Removal and Reversal Instructions (continued)
TRIM REMOVAL (FULL-LENGTH TRIM MODELS ONLY)
In some models, the refrigerator door has a full length trim piece which
continues from the bottom of the handle to the bottom of the door. The top
of the trim attaches to the handle bracket (Figure 1) or fits around the base
of the handle (Figure 2). An adhesive “trim lock” is positioned about halfway
down. The bottom of the trim is held in place by either an adhesive trim
lock, or a trim lock with two prongs inserted into a hole on the face of the
door.
TO REMOVE TRIM:
1. Remove trim by gently pulling trim lock areas out and away from door.
2. When trim is free from door, slide the trim straight down and away
from base of handle.
NOTE: For models with short handle trim, remove by sliding trim straight
down and off of handle bracket.
