To prevent damaging the doors or gasket seals, open the doors wide when removing the shelves. When removing any of these shelves out of the rail compartment, you must lift (from the rear) and pull it towards you. To re-install, ensure the shelf is resting securely on the support brackets and push shelf inward until it locks into place.

IMPORTANT: Do not cover the gap of glass shelves with aluminum foil or any other type of material that will prevent adequate air circulation within the cabinet.

Open the door completely.

If necessary, make sure you remove all the contents sitting on the shelf.

Pull the shelf forward until the notch aligns with the metal post on each side of the shelf track.

Lift the shelf until both notches pass through the posts.

Continue to pull the shelf forward until it is completely removed from the inner compartment.

To prevent damaging the door gasket, make sure to have the door all the way opened when pulling shelves out of the rail compartment. For easy access to the bottles, you must pull the shelves approximately 1/3 out of the rail compartment.

To remove the shelves out of the rail, pull each shelf approximately 1/3 out. Use a long flat screwdriver to press down the right plastic notch and at the same time lift the left plastic notch. Then proceed to pull out the shelf slowly.

In order to guarantee the stability of the model ILWD36X, install and screw the fastening bracket correctly onto the kitchen furniture.
