Owner’s Manual 6
Door handles:
During travel, the door latch prevents the door from opening. When closing each door,
push the door toward the refrigerator until you hear a “click” sound.
To open each door, pull the handle away from the refrigerator (See Art00990).
During storage, the storage latch prevents the door from completely closing. Use it to
prevent odors when the refrigerator is stored for an extended period of time.
To operate the storage latch (see Art00991), open each door about 1/2 inch, hold the door
handle in the open position, and push the storage latch [55] into the cutout [56] of the
strike plate. Do not use the storage latch as a travel latch because the doors will not be
fully closed.
Movable door seal:
The movable door seal [134] is located on the left door of the fresh food compartment (See
Art01789). It provides the correct seal when both doors of the fresh food compartment are
closed. When the left door of the fresh food compartment opens, the movable door seal
moves so that it is flat against the edge of the door. To avoid possible damage to the
movable door seal, make sure that it is flat against the edge of the door before you close the
door
Crispers:
The crispers are located at the bottom left side of the fresh food compartment and supply a
storage area to preserve fruit and vegetable freshness. Make sure that you always push the
crispers fully in. The glass crisper covers are made so that you can remove them.
NOTE: Do not wash the crispers in a dishwasher. The crispers are not dishwasher safe.
To remove the glass crisper covers [135] (See Art01790):
- Remove the crispers [136].
- Remove the screw from the top right side of the crisper support wall [137].
- Remove the screws [41] from the retainer [54] on the left side of the refrigerator (See Art00992).
- Remove the retainer.
- Remove the glass crisper covers.
- Remove the crisper support wall.
Tall bottle and gallon storage drawer:
The tall bottle and gallon storage drawer [138] is located at the bottom right side of the fresh food com-
partment and supplies a storage area for items such as 2-liter bottles or gallon milk containers (See
Art01790). This drawer has a divider which prevents items from moving and/or
overturning while the vehicle is in transit. Make sure that you always push the drawer
fully in.
The divider fits down into grooves on the inside of the drawer. The divider also fits at
the rear of the drawer so that you can use all of the capacity of the drawer.
NOTE: Do not wash the drawer or divider in a dishwasher. The drawer and divider
are not dishwasher safe.
