If you own a Whirlpool refrigerator with a bottom-mount freezer, you might be wondering how to remove the top freezer drawer for cleaning or maintenance purposes. The top freezer drawer is the one that slides out on a track and has a handle on it. It can be tricky to remove, but not impossible. In this post, we will show you how to remove the top freezer drawer from a Whirlpool refrigerator in a few simple steps.
To remove the top freezer drawer from a Whirlpool refrigerator, you need to open the freezer door, pull out the drawer handle, lift up the drawer slightly, and slide it out of the track. Then, you need to disconnect the wires, unscrew the metal strip, and pull out the drawer completely.
The first step is to open the freezer door and locate the top freezer drawer near the top of the appliance. Pull out on the drawer handle to unlock it from its track. You should hear a click when it is released.
Next, you need to lift up the drawer gently as you pull it forward. Be careful not to drop it or damage it, as it can be heavy when full. You might need someone to help you support it from both sides. As you lift up the drawer, you should be able to slide it out of the track.
Once you have slid out the drawer, you need to disconnect the wires that connect it to the refrigerator. To do this, take off the plastic cap located at the end of each wire and pull out the wires gently. Put them aside in a safe place. Then, locate the two metal screws at the bottom of the freezer drawer and take them out with a screwdriver. Remove the metal strip that holds the drawer in place.
Finally, you can pull out the drawer completely and check whether it is empty or not. You can now clean it or replace it as needed. To put it back, just reverse the steps above.
