IMPORTANT: If you want to reverse your doors so that they open 
in the opposite direction, follow these steps. If you are not 
reversing the doors, see “Replace Doors and Hinges.”

See complete graphics later in these instructions.

1. Remove the three dome caps and screws from the handle 

side and use them to fill the holes created when the hinge 
screws were removed. 

2. Using the three 

⁵⁄₁₆" hex-head hinge screws, removed in 

Step 1, insert two screws halfway into the holes, leaving 
space to insert the center hinge.

3. Once the refrigerator door is in place, slide the center hinge 

from the right onto the screws, insert the third screw, and 
then tighten all screws completely.

NOTE: Make sure the washers are in place on both the top 
and bottom pins of the center hinge. 

1. Remove the three cabinet hole plugs from the top of the 

cabinet and place them in the hinge holes on the opposite 
side.

2. Remove the door handles. 

■

Remove the two flat-head handle screws from the bottom 
of the freezer door handle.

■

Using the 

¹⁄₈" hex key, loosen the setscrew attaching the 

top of the handle. 

■

Pull the handle away from the door to release it from the 
shoulder screw. Keep all parts together.  

3. Using the plastic tool (provided), remove the brand badge 

from the freezer door by prying up the right-hand side and 
slowly peeling the badge away from the door, revealing the 
hole to mount the door handle. 

■

To avoid scratching the finish, do not use a sharp or 
metallic object to pry the brand badge from the door.

■

Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over any adhesive 
residue with your fingers. Rinse the door with warm water 
and dry with a soft cloth. 

4. Remove the shoulder screw and its washer from the left-hand 

side of the door and fasten it into the hole that was behind 
the brand badge.

5. Remove the door stop from the bottom of the freezer door. 

6. Move the door stop to the opposite side, making sure that the 

hole in the door stop plate is aligned perfectly with the hole 
for the center hinge pin.
