11. Cover the remaining hole with the decal (provided).

12. Tighten all screws. Set aside refrigerator door until bottom

hinge is installed on the opposite side of the refrigerator.
NOTE: For 21 cu ft models, transfer both the bottom hinge
assembly and the leveling foot to the opposite side.

Reverse Top Hinge

1. Remove the screw attaching the hinge pin to the hinge. Turn

the hinge over so that it is pointing in the opposite direction.

2. Place the plastic spacer beneath the hinge so that it will be

between the hinge and the cabinet, making sure the holes are
aligned.

3. Fasten the Top Hinge to the opposite side of the cabinet,

inserting the screws only halfway, so you will be able to
replace and align the freezer door later.

Replace Doors and Hinges

IMPORTANT: Provide additional support for the doors while the
hinges are being moved. Do not depend on the door magnets to
hold the doors in place while you are working.

Install Refrigerator Door

1. Place the washer on the hole on top of the refrigerator door.
2. Lift the refrigerator door onto the bottom pin of the Center

hinge, and rest the door on the magnetic shipping bracket to
ensure proper alignment.
NOTE: If the shipping bracket is no longer there, the distance
between the bottom of the door and the floor must be 3.46"
(8.8 cm).

3. Insert the bottom hinge pin into the bottom of the refrigerator

door and fasten the hinge to the cabinet. Do not tighten
completely.

NOTE: For 21 cu ft models, install both the bottom hinge
assembly and the leveling foot.

4. Measure the distance from the bottom of the refrigerator door

to the floor. The distance should be approximately 3

¹⁄₂"

(88 mm).
NOTE: If necessary, loosen the bottom hinge, without
removing the screws, adjust the door to the correct height and
fully tighten the screws.

Install Freezer Door

1. Place washer on the upper hinge pin of the Center Hinge.
2. Place the freezer door on the upper hinge pin of the Center

Hinge.

3. Insert the Top Hinge pin into the drilled hole in the top of the

freezer door. Do not tighten the screws completely.

4. Align the doors so that the bottom of the freezer door aligns

evenly with the top of the refrigerator door. Tighten all screws.
NOTE: The distance between the doors should be
approximately

⁵⁄₈" (16 mm).

Final Steps

1. Remove the cover from each side of the base grille. Move

each cover to the opposite side.
NOTE: The shorter cover must be on the hinge side of the
base grille.

2. Align the clips on the base grille with the screws on the

bottom of the cabinet. Push the base grille toward the cabinet
until it is flush.

3. Plug in the refrigerator or reconnect the power.
4. Reset the controls. See “Using the Controls.”
