Looking Inside
Fresh Food Compartment
Shelves
Full Width Shelves: Some models have full width shelves that rest on linear support rails. To remove: pull the shelf forward until it stops, lift the front and pull the shelf straight out. To reinstall, reverse this procedure. Adjustable Shelves: Cantilever shelves may be available with your refrigerator. To remove a shelf, slightly lift up the rear of the shelf and pull 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, making sure the shelf is securely locked at the rear. On certain models the outside edge of the shelf rests on rails formed into the side of the refrigerator cabinet.

WARNING � Never attempt to adjust a shelf that is loaded with food (except in the case of the Elevator� Shelf).

Elevator� Shelf (select models)
The fresh food compartment may be equipped with an Elevator� Shelf. This shelf has a spill retainer edge for easy cleanup. It also has the convenient slide out feature that allows easy access to items stored at the rear of the shelf. This shelf can be adjusted up or down without being unloaded. To adjust an Elevator� 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. To remove the Elevator� shelf for occasional cleaning, 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 reinstall, 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 Elevator� shelf with the frame assembly does NOT require removal. Though unlikely, and not recommended, the correct removal procedure is as follows: Unload the shelf completely and raise the shelf to its highest possible position. While supporting the shelf and frame from the front, press both locks inward. Lift slightly and tilt the frame assembly to allow the rear guides to clear the vertical rails. The entire assembly can then be moved forward and clear of the refrigerator compartment. To reinstall, tilt the frame assembly while depressing both locks, reposition the rear guide behind the vertical rails. When the shelf is level, release the locks allowing the shelf to latch into the correct position.
