BRACKET TO THE LEFT
Remove the base grille by grasping it about 6" from
each end and pulling its bottom edge toward you.
Using a Torx ® driver, move the bottom hinge bracket
and plastic washer from the right side to the left side.
NOTE: If the washer is not on the hinge bracket,
check to see if it is stuck to the bottom of the door.
Hinge Bracket
Before replacing the base grille, remove the grille
cap by removing the screw. Screw the cap to the
opposite side.
Replace the base grille by inserting the tops of the
metal clips into the oval vents, making sure one of the
plastic tabs on the back of the grille goes into each of
the oven vents. Then push the bottom of the grille
forward until it snaps into place.

TRANSFER CENTER HINGE
5
BRACKET TO THE LEFT
Remove the center hinge bracket by removing the
three Torx ® screws.
NOTE: Keep these screws with the hinge bracket.
They are long screws and will be used when installing
the hinge on the other side.
On some models, you will need to remove the color-
matched caps from the screw heads before you can
remove the screws. Use the edge of a thin flat blade to
gently pry the caps off the screw heads. (A putty knife
works well for this.) Cover the blade with tape to
prevent scratching the paint.
Remove the three Torx
side of the cabinet. Screw them into the holes on
the right side.
Place the center hinge bracket over the holes at
the center left side of the cabinet. Insert and
tighten the three long screws.
Replace the caps by snapping them over the screws
with your finger.
