Removing the lower soft-close
mechanism:
Open the lower door.
If a door seal is damaged the
door will not close properly and
cooling performance will be reduced.
Condensate will build up in the
interior and this can cause a build-up
of ice.
Do not damage the door seals.
Loosen the panel from the soft-
close mechanism by inserting a flat-
headed screwdriver into the gaps
from below and, taking care,
gradually lift the panel off.
Changing the door hinging
Push the panel toward the
appliance and leave it hanging there
between the door and appliance for
the time being.
Place the safety device (supplied
with the refrigerator) on the soft-close
mechanism so that it engages.
The safety device prevents the hinge
from snapping shut.
Do not remove the red safety device
until instructed to do so.
Use a flat-headed screwdriver to
carefully remove the cover from
the side.
