TRIM REMOVAL (Full Length Trim Models Only)
In some models, the refrigerator door has a full length trim piece which continues from the bottom of
the handle to the bottom of the door. The top of the trim attaches to the handle bracket (see Figure
1) or fits around the base of the handle (see Figure 2). An adhesive trim lock is positioned
approximately half way down the trim piece. The bottom of the trim is secured by either an adhesive
trim lock or a trim lock with two prongs inserted into a hole on the face of the door.
REMOVE TRIM:
1. Remove the trim by gently pulling the trim lock areas out and away from the door.
2. When the trim is free from the door, slide the trim straight down and away from the base of
the handle. Note: For models with a short handle trim, remove by sliding the trim straight
down and off the handle bracket.
