2.
Remove the upper, and if necessary, the center hinge
pin(s).
This allows you to remove the refrigerator
door(s).
3.
Place a metal,
1/4"
flat washer (available at any
hardware store) over the lower hinge pin and reinstall
the
door(s).
This will raise the door to engage the
latch assembly. (On very rare occasions two
[2]
washers
may be required.)
If the latch assembly still will not engage, the base can
be repositioned to reorient the door as follows:
1.
Turn the refrigerator on its side to gain access to the
four (4) base screws. Loosen all four (4) screws slightly.
2.
Reposition the base so that the door catch retainer
engages with the latch.
3.
Retighten the base screws
while
holding
the base in
its new position.
By following the above listed procedures you will be able
to correct any door latching problems incurred when
reversing the hinge position on your
Dometic
refrigerator.
