Miele KFN 8992 SD ED - Manual (Page 43)

The appliance is delivered with
right-hand hinging. If left-hand door
hinging is preferred, then follow these
instructions to change the door hinge.
Remove the door handles
Begin by releasing the sidebars from
the door handles, as follows:
^ When you pull on the door handle a,
the sidebar b moves backward and
creates a gap d between the handle
sidebar b and the mounting plate c
for the handle.
^ Use a blunt object (such as a
wooden spoon handle) to keep the
gap d open, and push the handle
slowly back toward the door.
Make sure that the blunt object does
not slip and damage the appliance.
The sidebar b will now come loose.
^ Pull it b out of the track.
^ Now loosen the 4 screws (Torx 15) in
the mounting plate and remove the
handle.
^ Remove the covers from the opposite
side and place them on the holes that
are left.
Switching the appliance doors
^ Pull off the cover a.
^ With the door closed, unscrew the
lower hinge bracket b, then remove
the door downward.
^ Now place the panel d in position on
the opposite side.
^ Remove the hinge parts c from the
hinge bracket b, and re-insert them
in the second hole on the hinge
bracket.
^ With the upper door of the appliance
f closed, pull the bearing pin e
downward to remove.
^ Open the upper appliance door, then
remove it by pulling it downward.
