The upper interior section is commonly
referred to as the fresh food section even though it
may be set for wine. The bottom convertible drawer
interior section is referred to as the freezer section
even though it can be con

wine modes of operation. The center ice drawer will
always be operating in freezer mode.
The fresh food evaporator cover is held to the back
wall of the refrigerator with 7 Phillips-head screws.
