Remove the top hinge cover (lift up on the

3 screws that hold the top hinge to the cabinet.
Lift the hinge straight up to free the hinge pin
from the socket in the top of the door. Carefully
peel off the adhesive backed spacer from the top

cabinet and lift it to free its bottom socket from
the hinge pin on the center hinge bracket.

Open the freezer drawer and remove the hinge
bracket from the center right side of the cabinet
by removing the three Phillips head screws.

screws from the center left side of the cabinet
and insert them into the holes just vacated by
the Phillips head screws on the center right side.
Remove the center hinge pin from the hinge
bracket using a 5/16 hex socket driver. Invert
the hinge bracket with shim and reinstall hinge
pin in hinge bracket. Secure this assembly with
the three Phillips head screws removed from the
right side. Tighten all screws.
NOTE: If the washer is not on the hinge pin,
check to see if it is stuck to the bottom of
the door.
