Reversing The Door Swing; Important Notes - GE 21 Owner's Manual And Installation Instructions

REVERSING THE DOOR SWING

IMPORTANT NOTES

When reversing the door swing:
NOTE: Door swing is not reversible on stainless steel
models.
• Read the instructions all the way through before
starting.
• Parts are included in the door hinge kit.
• Handle parts carefully to avoid scratching paint.
• Set screws down by their related parts to avoid
using them in the wrong places.
• Provide a non-scratching work surface for the doors.
IMPORTANT: Once you begin, do not move the cabinet
until door-swing reversal is completed.
These instructions are for changing the hinges from
the right side to the left side—if you ever want to
change the hinges back to the right side, follow these
same instructions and reverse all references to left and
right.
• Once door swing is finalized, ensure the logo badge
is properly aligned and permanently secured to
the door by removing the adhesive cover on the
back side.
NOTE: A replacement logo badge is included in the
hinge kit.
Unplug the refrigerator from its electrical outlet.
Empty all door shelves, including the dairy
compartment.
