Reversing the Door Swing
(not available on models ending CSS, SSHV, or SSTB
:
If you find the direction of opening the door of the appliance inconvenient, you can
change it. Holes on the opposite side have already been prepared at the factory.
This appliance can be opened from either the right side or the left. By default, the
door hinge is on the right side. If you prefer it on the left, please follow these
instructions:
1. Take off upper hinge cover from the door and remove the screws that hold top
hinge.
2. Lift the hinge straight up to free the hinge pin from the socket in the top of the
door.
3. Lift the door up and away to free its bottom socket from the hinge pin.
4. Remove the screws to the bottom hinge.
5. Remove the decorative caps from the opposite side and plug the holes from the
original side with the decorative caps.
6. Move the bottom hinge to the opposite side and tighten the screws. Use any lock
washers or nuts if they were used in the original installation.
7. Replace door onto the hinge pin on the bottom hinge. Place top hinge pin into
door. Insert screws into the top hinge and tighten.
Switching the Door Handle:
The door has two screw holes on each side, allowing you to move the handle from one
side to the other. To do so, unscrew the handle from its original location and align the
handle with the screw holes on the opposite side. Fix the handle in place with the
screws, then cover the screw heads with the handle seal.
