Possible Causes

Ice buildup in drawer tracks, Warped plastic rails from overloading, Misaligned drawers after cleaning

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the freezer before defrosting or removing drawers.

Step-by-step checks:

  • 1. Remove drawers: Take out all baskets or drawers and inspect the tracks for ice or debris.
  • 2. Defrost tracks: Allow ice to melt naturally or use warm water on a cloth to speed up melting. Do not use sharp tools.
  • 3. Inspect rails: Check plastic rails for warping or cracks. Replace damaged rails with Gram-compatible parts.
  • 4. Reinstall correctly: Ensure drawers are seated properly in their tracks and not overloaded.

When to call a technician: If cabinet-mounted rails are broken or loose, a technician may be needed to replace or resecure them.
