About the fresh food compartment shelves.
Shelf supports at various levels allow you to custom-space your shelves. Not all features are on all models.
Full-Width Shelves
Some models have a steel wire sliding shelf, a
stationary tempered glass shelf,
a spillproof shelf or two steel wire stationary
shelves. These shelves can be moved to
another place in the fresh food
compartment.
The full-width sliding shelf has stop-locks.
When placed correctly on the shelf supports,
the shelf will stop before coming completely
out of the refrigerator and will not tilt when
you place food on it or remove food from it.
Half-Width Shelves
One end of the shelf rests on a molded side-
wall support; a bracket on the other end hooks
into a track on the rear cabinet wall.
To remove, lift the shelf up at front, then off
the support and out of the track.
To replace, select desired shelf height. With
shelf front raised slightly, hook the bracket’s top
lug into the track, then lower the shelf onto the
support.
NOTE: The shelf to the right of the track is designed
to hook into the right-hand slot; the shelf to the left
is designed to hook into the left-hand slot.

to help prevent spills from dripping

the shelves, see the above instructions.
