I can't get the cover off the light in the fridge section to change a light bulb. The manual says there is a screw non can be found and I'm afraid I will break the cover.

Does it look something like #11 in the drawing I've attached? From what I can see, there are tabs along the side, but no screws.

If it was mine, I would try to gently pull down from the middle (lower-left of the cover as shown in the diagram), causing the cover to bow down slightly and the tabs to come out of the slots. You need to do this gently so that the cover won't come flying off (and also so it won't break).

You won't need to flex it very much in order for the tabs to come out.

Good luck, be careful.

Yes it looks like this. I will give it another try. Thanks for the help.
