Reversing the Door

Before you Begin
NOTE
Service calls to reverse the door are not covered
under the product warranty.
• The door reversal process for the two-way door is more
complex than for a conventional dryer door. Read
through these instructions in their entirety before
beginning the process, in order to gauge whether to
have the procedure done by a professional installer or
service person.
• A support video is also provided at http://www.
lg.com/us/support/videos/video-tutorials-view, How
to Reverse the Door – LG EasyLoad™ Dryer.
Tools Required
• Phillips screwdriver
• Large flat blade screwdriver (recommended for hinge
screws if they are tight or your Phillips screwdriver is
worn)
• Small flat blade screwdriver (for lifting out parts)
wWARNINg
THE DRYER DOOR IS VERY LARGE AND HEAVY. Failure to
follow the instructions below may result in damage to
the dryer, property damage or personal injury.
• To avoid damage to the dryer or the door, support the
door with a stool or box that fits under the door, or
have an assistant support the weight of the door.
• Avoid dropping the door to avoid damage to the door
or the floor.
• Unplug the dryer or turn off power at the main circuit
breaker before beginning door reversal.
Door Reversal Instructions
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.

Be sure to support the weight of the door before
removing the hinge screws.
