WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install

refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

Bottom Door Hinge

For your convenience, the refrigerator doors have bottom hinges

with door closers. These closers allow the doors to swing fully

closed with just a gentle push.

IMPORTANT: So that the closers feature will operate properly,

the doors must be removed only when open to a 90° angle to the

front of the cabinet. If one or both doors were not at a 90° angle

when removed, the bottom door hinge must be reset.

90°

Reset the Door Hinge

1. Lift the door from the bottom hinge pin, and place it on a

at surface.

2. Using a TORX T25 screwdriver, remove the bottom hinge with

the bushing from the cabinet.

3. Insert the bottom hinge and bushing into the corresponding

slot in the bottom of the door.

NOTE: Make sure that the base of the hinge is parallel to the

bottom of the door.
