Lower Flange Installation
The lower flange is shipped as a loose part to prevent damage
during shipment. The part is to be attached after the refrigerator
is set into the cut-out opening.
1. Install the lower flange by maneuvering it under and behind
the bottom hinge plate, as shown in Figure 4 (the hinge will
be located on either the right or left side, depending on
door swing preference).
2. Once the lower flange is slipped around the hinge, the part
will swing into place as shown in Figure 5.
3. Secure the flange with screws provided.
Decorative Door Panel Installation
The Norcold refrigerator door provides slots for inserting deco-
rative panels. Installation of the panel is accomplished by remov-
ing the handle assembly, sliding the panel into the frame slots
and reinstalling the handle assembly.
The frame slots are designed to accept panel thickness up to
3/16" maximum.

Instructions for Reversing Door Swing
Your refrigerator is equipped with convertible door hinges. The
hinging of the doors can be changed to the opposite side any-
time you wish.
TOOLS REQUIRED:
Phillips Screwdriver - Size # 2,
One Slotted Screwdriver
REMOVING THE DOOR
1. Turn ON-OFF switch, located on the Control Panel, to OFF.
Remove all items of food, juices, etc., from the doors. Re-
move the storage bins from the door.
DOOR REMOVAL
2. Remove the travel latch and 8 plastic hole covers from the
mounting flange. Retain all parts for re-installation. With the
door opened 90 degrees, remove the two outboard screws
from both the top and bottom hinge brackets of the door.
(See Figure 7). Next, open the door to almost completely
open. Remove the remaining inboard screw from the top
hinge bracket. (See Figure 8).
IMPORTANT:
Hold the door in place while removing this screw since the
door could fall away from the cabinet.
Next, remove the remaining inboard screw from the bottom
hinge bracket (with the door held securely so as not to fall). Pull
the door away from the cabinet. Retain the 8 screws just removed
for re-installation.
