When moving the refrigerator through a narrow
opening, removing the doors is preferred. If you
must remove the handles, be very careful not to
scratch the doors.
The appearance of the handles may vary from
what is shown.
CAUTION
• When assembling or disassembling the
refrigerator handles, grasp the handle firmly to
avoid dropping it.
• Do not swing the handle into nearby people or
animals.
• Make sure that the set screws are in place and
the handle footprints at the ends of the handles
are aligned correctly over the mounting
fasteners on the doors. The set screws should be
loose enough to allow the handle footprints to
slide down into place over the mounting
fasteners on the door.
• Make sure that there is not a gap between the
door and handle after assembling the handle.
