Of course it is early in the morning. According to what I have read, you should push up on the panel and pull out to remove. No ice here to thaw. Appreciate your help

Before, it would not close even with coaxing. So long as I remember to reach my hand to the door and touch it so it closes shut, it will hopefully not warm up the freezer. I consider it 90% fixed. Would not be satisfied if this were some else's freezer.
