Introduction
Note: This kit is supplied to service models with broken or malfunctioning hinges. The removal of
original hinges that are functioning properly is not recommended.
Installation
1. Models 280 and 283: Loosen the 4 screws in the corners of the unit enclosure. Open the door.
Disconnect all wires from the door to printed circuit board at printed circuit board. Be sure to note
the location of the printed circuit board connections for rewiring purposes.
Other models: Open the door to the enclosure, and loosen the 4 outermost corner screws. Swing the
mid-section away from the rear section by pulling the right side of this section forward.
2. With constant pressure, slowly pull the mid-section away from the rear section until the hinges
dislocate from the mid-section. Both hinges, except broken parts, should be entirely in the mid- or
front section.
3. If the non-anchored half of a hinge requires removal, snap it apart from the anchored half, and replace
it. If the anchored half of a hinge requires removal due to the erosion of the adhesive, replace it with
a new hinge. If desired, a small amount of a strong glue may be used to secure the hinges.
