Door reversal

If you wish to change the opening direction of the

doors, proceed as follows:

1. Open the freezer door. Remove the plinth (A) at the

bottom of the appliance, by pushing downwards

and pulling outwards. (See fig 5)

2. Remove the hinge cover (B) in the plinth and repo-

sition on the opposite side of the plinth.

3. Whilst supporting the lower door, use a 8mm nut

driver to remove the 3 hinge retaining bolts and

remove the lower hinge.

4. Carefully lower the door off the central hinge.

5. Support the upper door and remove the two secu-

ring screws from the centre hinge. Remove the

hinge, taking care that the upper door does not fall,

retain the plastic spacer washer.

6. Carefully remove the upper door.

7. Unscrew the small blanking plugs (3) and refit on

the opposite side to cover the vacant hinge holes.

8. Unscrew the hinge pin (4) in the upper and lower

hinge blades and refit on the opposite side.

9. Change the door self-closing system (5), putting

the freezer door's on the fridge door and viceversa.

10. Refit the spacer washers and the upper door onto

the upper hinge pin and refit the centre hinge in

position.

11. Relocate the lower door onto the central hinge pin,

and refit the lower hinge assembly.

12. Refit the plinth.

After reversing the door ensure the internal light turns

off when the fridge door is closed, and the door gasket

seals correctly to the cabinet. If the gasket is not sea-

ling correctly, apply warm air to the non-sealing area

using a hair dryer set to gentle heat.

This will make the rubber more supple and allow it to

revert to its original shape and seal correctly.
