or blanket to protect the floor and to avoid scratching the painted finish.

Remove the leveling legs by turning them counterclockwise. Remove the
lower hexagonal-head screws, two on the hinge side and one near the front
corner of the other side.

using a screwdriver and insert them in the hinge collars on the opposite side.

13.
Rotate the middle hinge 180°. Attach it to the refrigerator door and secure it
with screws. (Do not tighten screws completely.)

The direction in which the doors open has now been changed; however, the
following points should be checked:
a. Make sure the doors are on straight.
b. Make sure there is no space between the door gaskets and the refrigerator
and freezer units themselves when the doors are closed.
c. Make sure that the gasket on the hinge side is not caught between the door
and the unit when the door is opened or closed. (If the door is forced
closed when the gasket is caught, the gasket might be damaged.)
d. When checking the above points, if it is discovered that the doors are not
installed properly (this is apt to happen on the first try), loosen the screws
holding the upper hinge, straighten the door and tighten the screws slowly
with the socket wrench. After making sure that the doors are installed
correctly, tighten all the screws holding the hinge.
If they are not tightened, the doors may slip out of position or there may be
an opening between the doors and the unit.
