•  Ensure the unit is unplugged and empty.
•  To take the door off it is necessary to tilt the unit backwards. You should rest the unit 

on something solid, e.g. a chair just below the top panel.

•  All parts removed must be saved to do the reinstallation of the door. 
•  Do not lay the unit flat as this may damage the coolant system.
