Operating Instructions
Reversing the door swing.
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Important Notes
NOTE: Doors on dispenser models do not reverse.
When reversing the door swing:
Read the instructions all the way through before
starting.
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.
Tools Required
Phillips screwdriver
Masking tape
T20 or T25 Torxdriver, whichever your model
requires
Putty knife or thin-blade screwdriver
3/8² socket and ratchet (a 6-point socket is
recommended)
Removing the doors.
Removing the Doors
Unplug the refrigerator from its electrical outlet.
Empty all door shelves, including the dairy compartment.
CAUTION: Do not let either door drop to the floor. To do so could damage the door stop.
Remove the Freezer Door
Tape the door shut with masking tape.
With a Phillips screwdriver, remove the hinge over on top of the freezer door
(on some models). With a Torxdriver, remove the 2 Torx screws that hold
the top hinge to the cabinet.
Lift the hinge straight up to free the hinge pin from the socket in the
top of the door.
Remove the tape and tilt the door away from the cabinet. Lift it off the
bottom socket.
Set the door on a non-scratching surface with the outside up.
