Changing The Direction Of Opening The Door - Smeg FI224B Instructions For Use Manual

Changing the Direction of Opening the Door

If you find the direction of opening the door on your appliance
inconvenient, you can change it. Holes on the opposite side have
already been prepared in the factory and are now plugged.
Remove the cover of the upper hinge, unscrew the hinge and
take off the door (the door is not fixed on the lower hinge).
Unscrew the upper rail, replace it to the opposite side of the
appliance and fix it.
Remove the washer from the lower hinge and unscrew (rotate it
in clockwise) the fastener on the lower hinge.
Replace the fastener and the washer in reverse order into the
opening of the lower hinge on the opposite side of the
appliance.
Take off all door corners and interchange them (instead of the
corner with a hole insert the one without the hole and vice
versa).
Put the door of the appliance on the lower hinge.
Fix the upper hinge and cover it.
Replace the slide guides to the opposite side of the door.
Plug the remaining holes with decorative caps.
Check the gasket, it shouldn't be creased and it should seal
well.
Should the seal not adhere to the casing of the appliance
perfectly, it will have to be heated from a suitable distance (by
means of hair drier, for example) and lightly stretched to the
required height.
Changing the Direction of Opening the Door on the Low
Temperature Compartment
Unscrew the blocking element and the hinge of the low
temperature compartment and take off the door.
Plug the holes with plastic caps provided.
Turn the door for 180° and replace it on the opposite side of the
low temperature compartment. Fix the hinge and the blocking
element of the door (position of holes already provided).
