Hi Mel, I looked for a manual for your fridge but couldnt find one. These jobs are pretty similar - regardless of brand however.

You should first deremine if your model does indeed support swapping the hardware to allow the door to swing the other direction. Look at the points of attachement for the handles and hinges on the door and the fridge body itself. There are typoically pre drilled holes for fasteners in these parts on the opposite side - but have plugs or covers over them to minimize their appearance. if you have these tell tale indicators present - you're good to go.

The process will require removal of all products stored on the doors of the fridge and freezer compartments, and placing in a thermal container or cooler.

The hinges consist of one at the top, one at the bottom and usually one in the center that engages both the bottom of the top door and the top of the bottom door.

At the top, you may need to remove a bezel or cover to gain access to the fastener head(s). Many times these are hex head screws, but could be any type really. Two, 3 or more fasteners may be used to hold the top inge to the fridge. Once the screws are loosened / removed the tops door will shift - so be ready for it (or have afriend support it while you remove the fasteners). The doors are surprisingly light - a thein meta outer jacket wrapped around a lightweight drame, lots of insulation and plastic is it really is. Lift the top door up and away from the center hinge pin. You may find one or more spacers or washers made of metal or more likely - nylon. Remove these and set aside as they will likely be needed to put back in place when the hardware is reversed.

The lower door is being help by the center and bottom hinges now. You should have access to fasteners holding the center hinge to the fridge. Support the bottom door as you loosened and remove the fasteners on the center hinge If you are unable to access the fasteners of the center hinge, try the fasteners on bottom hinge instead. If you get the center hinge loosened, you should be able to lift on the door slightly to roll it out from between the center and bottom hinge. otherwise, when the bottom hinge fasteners are removed, the door will drop and be free from the fridge. Look for similar spacers or washers on the bottom hinge pin that yuou found on the top of the center hinge pin and save them.

Remove any remaining hinges from the fridge.

Remove door handle hardware from both doors and remove plugs / covers from the opposite side of the doors. Secure the door handles to the otherside and insert the plugs and covers into the holes that had previously been used to fasten the handles.

Remove the covers / plugs from the fridge and insert into the opening that previously fastened the hinges to the fridge. Swap any covers / plugs on the doors for hinges if needed.

Reinstall the hinges and doors in reverse order of removal. If the bottom hinge was last to come off - it is first to go on. Reinstall the spacers on the pin. The bottom door is placed on the bottom hinge pin. Place the center hinge pin into the recess of the top door and secure the hinge to the fridge. Place the spacers over the top pin of the center hinge. Place the top door recess over the center hing pin. Align the top hinge with the recess on the top of the door and insret fasteners through top hinge into fridge. Hand tighten all fasteners. Operate doors and check for rubbing, binding, etc. Adjust number and location of spacers as needed to allow doors to swing without scraping or binding. Once satisifed, tighten all fasteners. Adjust feet of fridge as need to allow the doors to close by themselves if left open by accident. Restock fridge & freezer.

Done!

Depending on the brand, this "may" be possible. Look for a mounting bracket area on the side you want to change to. Is so, have someone help you, two person job!

• I cannot confirm weather your fridge had reversible doors as you listed no model but the standard for fridges that can reverse the door swing are changed by doing this -

1. You will see little plastic covers on the opposite side where the hinges and handles are currently located now.
2. There are some little clips that hinge the screws on the top and bottom of each handle.
3. Remove these little covers with a small flathead screwdriver.
4. Now remove the screws holding the freezer and refrigerator handles on.
5. Now pop the screw hole covers on the side of the frig/freezer you will using.
6. Now place and fasten with screws the handles on the other side of the frig/freezer door.
7. Now remove the top freezer hinge first by removing the 3 screws on top.
8. Now pull up on the hinge (save the spacer).
9. Now pull up on the freezer door.
10. Now remove the screws on the middle hinge.
11. Now pull up and remove the middle hinge while holding the frig door steady (save the spacer).
12. Now pull up on the frig door and set to the side.
13. Now remove the screws on the bottom hinge (save the spacer).
14. Now put the screw hole covers you removed from the other side in the screw hole exposed from the screws you just removed.

• The switch

1. Start with the bottom hinge and place it on the opposite side (don't forget the spacer).
2. Place the frig door on the bottom hinge and the place the middle hinge in the hole at the top of the frig door.
3. Fasten the middle hinge.
4. Place freezer door on the middle hinge.
5. Put the freezer door in it's natural position to make putting the top hinge on possible.
6. Screw the top hinge in.
7. Job complete.

Regards, Tony

If you have a 5/16th nut driver pop the top hinge cover and remove the 3 screws then take the top door off. Back off the middle hinge and reposition it do the door no longer sags. Tighten them screws and put the top back on using the same procedure. Hold the door in the correct position you want whist tightening down them screws on top. Snap the cover back on. Raise the front egs a hair to throw the weight of them doors towards the rear of the ice box and take some the work off them hinges. Then Party on!

Hello,

Unplug the refrigerator and remove all food and utility bins from the doors. With the door open, remove the grille from the bottom of the refrigerator. Close the door.

Step 2
Remove the cover from the top hinge with the putty knife. Remove the three screws underneath, then remove the hinge. Take off the freezer door.

Step 3
Remove the three screws from the center hinge, then remove the hinge. Take off the refrigerator door.

Step 4
Remove the two screws from the bottom hinge, then remove the hinge. Replace with the new hinge and insert the two screws.

Step 5
Seat the refrigerator door on the bottom hinge and close the door. Fasten the new center hinge with the three old screws.

Step 6
Seat the freezer door on the center hinge and close the door. Fasten the top hinge and replace the top hinge cover.

Step 7
Replace the base grille, and plug the refrigerator back in.

Good luck in solving the problem with the solutions provided....

Unplug the dryer, remove the door hinge screws that go into the cabinet and the two screws on the opposite side of the door opening, then the front panel can be removedby starting at the top. Once the front is off, there are two screws, one to each side that hold the top on, remove these and raise the top. You can rotate the drum by hand and the baffles are held on by the screws on the outside of the drum. Reassemble in reverse order.

unplug power cord , open the rear cover the drum are visible.

DON'T remove the cover yourself unless you fully undertand the SAFETY issues involved in working inside a microwave oven. A microwave oven is possibly THE MOST DANGEROUS common consumer product to service. Usually with these doors, the latching parts tend to loosen up at times, thus requiring some re-adjustment and tightening. Sometimes they get a bit warn and require to be replaced. The handle by itself about $40, apparently GE doesn't know how to make a door handle that will hold up for more than a year or so. I just bought a new door off of eBay for $20 + $20 shipping ... a deal compared to the $135 + tax and shipping that most of the web sites want! All you need is a phillips screwdriver and a 5/16" socket. To get to 3 screws that anchor the TOP hinge, simply remove the vent grill (open the door and remove the 2 white screws that hold it in place). To get to the 2 screws that anchor the BOTTOM hinge, simply remove the 6 screws that hold the grey bottom pan of the microwave in place. The pan will swivel down, remaining attached in the back panel. Once you've removed the 5 hinge screws, the door should pull pretty much straight out. Reverse the procedure with the new door, which should come with hinges attached. Could be that the place the spring sits in is a little broken, so theres no stop for the spring. open it up and see if there's anything you can do with it, try some epoxy putty maybe. Good luck
