• Typical symptoms include a broken/missing insert, air drafts at the vent, rattling from the cover, or inconsistent cooling

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing

• Release and remove the damaged insert; snap the new insert into the cover with correct orientation and a secure fit
• Handle nearby foam seals and the damper door carefully to avoid damage
