fresh food door is reversible on freezer drawer models.

2. Transfer cabinet plugs and cabinet

screws to opposite side of cabinet.

• Remove cabinet plugs with flat

blade of screwdriver tip wrapped

in masking tape.

• Remove center mullion screws

with 5⁄16” hex head screwdriver

3. Transfer door stops from bottom edge of fresh food

door and freezer door, if applicable, to opposite

side of door edge.

for removal and installation.
