Summit FF43ESSSTBADA Manuale Istruttivo

Refer to the Disassembly Diagram on page 7 and change the door hinges following  
this procedure: (The numbers in the diagram indicate the procedure order in the 
instructions.) 

1.  Remove the hinge cap by twisting it off. 
2.  Remove the upper hexagonal head screws. The refrigerator door can now be 

removed. 

3.  Tilt the refrigerator back or lay it on its back for steps 4, 5 and 6. Use a pad or 

blanket to protect the floor and to avoid scratching the painted finish. 

4.  Remove the leveling legs by turning them counter-clockwise. Remove the lower 

hexagonal head screws, two on the hinge side and one near the front corner of 
the other side. 

5.  Attach the left side leg spacer to the other side hole which is positioned 

symmetrically. 

6.  Attach the bottom hinge symmetrically to the other side of the cabinet. 
7.  Remove the upper hinge plastic pins and insert them in the holes from which the 

screws were removed in procedure 2. 

8.  Take off the hinge collar caps using a screwdriver and insert them in the hinge 

collar on the opposite side. 

9.  Attach the shaft to the refrigerator door. Attach the door to the bottom hinge and 

secure them with the screws from procedure 4. 

10. Attach the upper hinge to the refrigerator door. Do not tighten the screws 

completely. 

11. The direction in which the door opens has now been changed. However, the 

following points should be checked: 

a.  Make sure the door is on straight. 
b.  Make sure there is no space between the door gasket and the refrigerator 

unit itself when the door is closed. 

c.  Make sure the gasket on the hinge side is not caught between the door 

and the unit when the door is opened or closed. (If the door is forced 
closed when the gasket is caught, the gasket may be damaged.) 

When checking the above points, if it is discovered that the door is not 
installed properly (this is apt to happen on the first try), loosen the screws 
holding the upper hinge, straighten the door and tighten the screws slowly 
with the socket wrench. After making sure the door is installed correctly, 
tighten all the screws holding the hinge. If they are not tightened, the door 
may slip out of position or there may be an opening between the door and 
the unit. 

12. Stand the unit back in the upright position.
