CAUTION

Wear gloves and safety goggles. Use extreme CAUTION when installing these handles.

NOTE

All set screws should be tightened so the screw is below

the surface of the handle. The handles should be drawn

tight to freezer and refrigerator doors with no gaps.

Opening the opposite door while tightening the Allen

screw makes installation easier.
The door handle may loosen over time or if it was

installed improperly. If this happens, tighten the set

screws on the handles.
