- Ok, The two screws located on the back side of the control panel in the corners need to be removed. Lift the control panel and let it rest on the hinges. Now will see the lid switch connector in the middlethat just needs to unplug. Locate the two clamps on each end (bronze colored) and unclip them. After those have been removed, tilt the cabinet toward you and it will release from the fram. NOW you wil be able to see and clean the whole thing.
When putting the cabinet back on, make sure the front lip fits under the frame and make sure the rear side panel locks in place on the little tabs on the frame. put the spring clips back in and plug the lid switch in. Set the control panel in place and tighten rear screws.
I hope this helps you. Please feel free to contact me if you need further assistance and please rate my response so that others as well as my self know how I am doing.

Thanks
