•Push the shelf in to return to original position.

•Pull until the shelf stops.
•Press up on the tabs located underneath its outside
edges and continue pulling forward until the shelf is

•Align the shelf to the frame and push it all the way

In ordinary use, the Elevator™ Shelf frame assembly
does NOT require removal. Though unlikely, and not
recommended, the correct removal procedure is as
follows:
To Remove Frame Assembly:
• Unload the shelf completely.
• Slide the shelf forward about 2” and manually move
the two rear latches toward the shelf center.
• While supporting the entire shelf and frame from
underneath, lift slightly and rotate the assembly
approximately 30° to allow the rear mechanism to
clear the vertical rear side rails.
• The entire assembly can then be moved forward
and clear of the refrigerator compartment.
To Reinstall Frame Assembly:
• Reverse the removal procedure. Be sure the shelf
is in a level position. When the sliding shelf is
pushed to the rear, it will reposition the rear latches
to their correct operating position.
