Refrigerator

are 

easily 

adjusted 

to 

suit 

individual 

needs. 

Before

remove 

all

Remove 

and 

discard 

shipping 

clips 

wedged

These 

clips 

stabilize 

the 

shelves

during

the 

rear 

of 

the 

refrigerator),

back 

of 

the 

shelf 

up 

and 

out.

Slider-Flip 

Shelf 

(some 

models)

Your 

Spillsafe™ slider-flip shelf provides more space and organization

options. 

 

The 

slider-flip 

shelf 

is 

adjustable, 

like 

your 

other 

shelves. 

 

Clean 

your

slider-flip 

shelf 

as 

you 

would 

any 

other 

inside 

refrigerator 

part 

(please 

see 

the

Care 

and 

Cleaning 

Section).

To 

suit 

your 

need, 

“flip” 

the 

flip 

shelf 

as 

shown 

below. 

 

The 

shelf 

will 

stay 

in

position. 

 

The 

slider 

shelf 

portion 

slides 

in 

and 

out, 

like 

your 

other 

refrigerator

shelves.  Remember to leave enough space above the shelf to “flip” the flip
shelf.
