While firmly supporting the left handle base against the door, align the right base of the handle with the right tabs that are attached to the door.

Now, while firmly holding the handle at the left and right bases, gently slide the handle towards the right until the right base settles in. The handle should now be flat against the face of the freezer door at both the left and right bases.

With hands still firmly keeping the handle flat against the freezer door, you may have to reverse directions momentarily to assure clip/tab engagement. Then firmly slide the handle to the right until it clicks. The audible "click" indicates that the fastening clips are securely interlocked.

At the right end, flex the handle base away from the surface of the freezer drawer. Simultaneously slide the door handle removal card that came with

your refrigerator under the right side base of the handle. Slide the card to the line indication or until

it stops, which will be approximately 3/4".

With both hands, firmly grasp the handle towards the right base.

Slide towards the left, lift and remove from the surface.
