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.
