INSTALLING DOOR HANDLES
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.
