GUIDE TO INTERNAL COMPONENTS
Shelves
• Never attempt to adjust a shelf that is loaded with food
(except in the case of the lift shelf).
• Confirm shelf is secure before placing items on shelf.
Your refrigerator has either spill guard glass shelf or non
sealed Shelves. The spill guard glass shelf shelves have a spill
retainer edge which allows for easier clean up and some are
equipped with the Easy Glide slide out feature. To slide out
(select models), grasp the front of the shelf and pull forward.
Push in the shelf to return to the original position.
To Remove a Shelf:
• Slightly tilt up the front and lift up the rear of the shelf, then
pull the shelf straight out.
To Lock the Shelf Into Another Position:
• Tilt up the front edge of the shelf.
• Insert the hooks into the desired frame openings and let the
shelf settle into place.
• Be sure the shelf is securely locked at the rear.
Lift Shelf (select models)
The fresh food compartment is equipped with an lift shelf.
This shelf can be adjusted up or down without having to be
unloaded of its contents. To adjust an lift shelf, pull out the knob
on the crank handle. Rotate the crank clockwise to raise the
height of the shelf, and counterclockwise to lower the height of
the shelf.
Note
• Do not raise the shelf to the very top of the vertical rails, as
the shelf may become jammed.
To Remove:
Completely unload the shelf and pull the shelf forward.
When the shelf stops, press up on the tabs located underneath
its outside edges, then continue pulling forward, clear of the
frame.
To Install:
Align the shelf to the frame and push it all the way back.
(There is no need to depress the tabs for reinstallation).
In ordinary use, the lift shelf frame assembly does not require
removal. Though unlikely, and not recommended, the correct
removal procedure is as follows:
To Remove:
• Unload the shelf completely.
• Remove glass shelf by pulling forward. When shelf stops lift up
and continue pulling forward.
• Manually move the two rear latches toward the shelf center.
• While supporting the entire shelf and frame from underneath,
lift slightly and rotate the assembly approximately 30° to allow
the rear mechanism to clear the vertical rear side rails.
• The entire assembly can then be moved forward and clear of
the refrigerator compartment.
