Top Freezer Refrigerator - Removing Glass on Crisper Cover
On top-mount refrigerators with glass shelves: If a spilled liquid gets between the glass and the shelf above the fruit & vegetable drawers, it may be necessary to remove the glass for cleaning. If this occurs, use caution when removing the glass.
- The glass edges may be sharp, so handling with leather gloves may be necessary.
- The glass must be fully supported on a flat surface to protect the glass. Be careful to avoid impact, as the glass shelves and covers may break if bumped or dropped.
- Do not clean glass shelves and covers with warm water when they are cold, as they may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes.
To remove the glass from the shelf above the fruit & vegetable drawers:
- Remove items from the shelf and remove the crisper drawers.
- Push up on the rear of the glass from underneath.
- While holding up the rear of the glass, push the glass to the rear about 1/2" to disengage it from the front of the frame.
- Once disengaged from the front of the frame, carefully lift the shelf up and out.
To reinstall:
- Place the piece of glass in the front groove in the shelf, keep the rear raised.
- Gently lower the glass into the frame in the rear.
