Freezer Shelf Front Plastic Edge Trim

1. Tools needed

All you’ll need for this is a Phillips screwdriver.

2. Remove hinge and drawer front

Firstly, pull the freezer drawer front down and remove the two screws on the right side hinge - pop these to one side for later on.

Then, gently manoeuvre the hinge from the two holes in the side of the freezer section and pull away. It might be tight to begin with, so remove it slowly. Then, remove the drawer's front basket handle.

3. Remove plastic edge trim

Now remove the front plastic edge trim away from the shelve.

4. Install new plastic edge trim

With your new front plastic edge trim, attach it to the side hinge and then to the shelve.

5. Re-attach drawer front and hinge

Using the small circular hole on the freezer drawer front, connect the left side of the freezer drawer front to the existing hinge on the left side of the fridge freezer as shown.

Now repeat the process for the hinge on the right side of the fridge freezer. Using the two back connectors on the hinge, gently insert these into the side of the freezer and the lower connector into the new plastic edge trim.

Screw the two screws into the hinge and make sure the basket handle opens and closes correctly.

That's it, your new plastic edge trim is all set to go!
