Tools you will need
Note: If required you may lay the
refrigerator on its back in order to gain
access to the base, you should rest it on
soft foam packaging or similar material
to avoid damaging the backboard of the
refrigerator. To reverse the door, the
following steps are generally
recommended.
1. Use a putty knife or thin-blade
screwdriver to prize the screw hole
cover which is at the top left corner of
the refrigerator, and the upper hinge
cover which is at the top right corner of
the refrigerator.
2. Unscrew the special flange self-
tapping screws which are used for fixing
the right upper hinge part by an 8mm
socket driver or a spanner (please
11
support the upper door with your hand
when doing it).

3. Remove the door from the lower hinge.
NOTE: When removing the door, watch
for washer(s) between the lower hinge
and the bottom of the lower door that
may stick to the door. Do not lose.
4. Place it on a smooth surface with its
panel upwards. Loose screw 2 and part
1, then install them to the left side and
tighten securely.
