Left Hand Door Swing Clearance

I have purchased a EI28BS56IS refridgerator. My existing fridge is a 2-door and the left hand door bumps against the wall before getting to 90 degrees. I think the hinge on the Electrolux is a bit different and the door doesn't need as much clearance. Am I correct about this? How much clearance do I need for the door to open correctly?

Door travels 150 degrees.  You will need to change a longer screw on the bottom hinge with a new change kit.  Good luck!
