WARNING
NOTE
The door reversal procedure for the two-way door
is far more complex than for a conventional dryer
door. It is recommended that you read through these
instructions in their entirety before beginning the
process, in order to gauge whether you prefer to have
the procedure done by a professional installer or
service person.
NOTE
The instructions here are for changing the door swing
from a right to a left side hinge. If the door has been
reversed, and it is necessary to change it back, use
care when following these instructions. Some of
the illustrations and the left/right references will be
reversed, and you will need to read the instructions
carefully.

WARNING
Be sure to support the weight of the door before
removing the hinge screws.
While supporting the door, remove the four hinge
screws, two from each hinge. Set the door aside face
down on a protected surface to prevent damage to
the door or the work surface.
a. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the two screws
and the latch mechanism on the front panel of the
cabinet.
b. Remove the latch hole cover by gently prying it
up with a flat blade screwdriver, being careful not
to scratch the paint. Install the latch hole cover on
the opposite side, where the latch mechanism was
removed. Install the latch mechanism in the position
from which you removed the latch hole cover, using
the two screws removed in step a.
c. Remove the hinge cover by gently prying it up with
a flat blade screwdriver, being careful not to scratch
the paint. Rotate the hinge cover 180 degrees and
install it on the opposite side, where the upper hinge
was attached.
