To remove a freezer drawer in a Whirlpool refrigerator, please follow the steps below:
Empty the drawer: Remove all items from the freezer drawer and set them aside in a safe place.
Open the freezer door: Fully open the freezer door to its maximum position.
Locate the drawer stops: Look for the drawer stops on each side of the freezer drawer. These are small levers or tabs that prevent the drawer from being fully pulled out accidentally.
Lift the drawer: With one hand on each side of the drawer, lift it slightly to disengage the stops. Gently pull the drawer towards you until it stops.
Tilt the drawer: While holding the drawer, tilt it slightly upwards to release the rear wheels from the track.
Remove the drawer: Continue pulling the drawer towards you while maintaining the slight upward tilt. Once the rear wheels are completely off the track, the drawer should slide out of the freezer compartment.
Note: If you encounter any resistance or difficulty while removing the drawer, double-check that you have fully disengaged the stops and that the drawer is not catching on any other components. Sometimes wiggling the drawer gently from side to side can help free it from any obstructions.
When you want to reinstall the freezer drawer, simply reverse the process by aligning the rear wheels with the tracks and sliding the drawer back into place. Ensure the stops engage properly to secure the drawer in its closed position.
It's important to note that the specific instructions may vary depending on the model of your Whirlpool refrigerator. It's always a good idea to consult the user manual that came with your appliance for model-specific instructions or refer to the manufacturer's website for any additional resources.
