Video Transcript

All you’ll need for this is a Phillips screwdriver.

Firstly, pull the freezer drawer front down and remove the two screws on the right side hinge - pop these to one side for later on.

Then, gently manoeuvre the hinge from the two holes in the side of the freezer section and pull away. It might be tight to begin with, so remove it slowly. Then, remove the drawer's front basket handle.

Now remove the front plastic edge trim away from the freezer section.

With your new front plastic edge trim, attach it to the side hinge and then to the freezer coils.

Using the small circular hole on the freezer drawer front, connect the left side of the freezer drawer front to the existing hinge on the left side as shown.

Now repeat the process for the hinge on the right side. Using the two back connectors on the hinge, gently insert these into the side of the freezer and the lower connector into the new plastic edge trim.
