INSTALLING DOOR 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.
