What sets the KBSD702M apart
The under-shelf prep area and the removable wood-look tray set the KBSD702MPS apart. The prep shelf includes bakeware sized to a 9-by-13-inch baking sheet and cake pan, which gives the owner a workspace inside the cabinet. The tray slides out for storage that is easy to reach, and glass shelves with spill-containing etched edges keep spills from running into the lower shelves. Day to day, the owner uses the external dispenser for measured filtered water rather than opening the main door.
Service notes for the KBSD702M
Dispenser trouble on this model is traced to the external dispenser, the filter path and the water supply, and the owner should note whether the dispenser stops, runs slow or runs wet. Freezer frost and fresh-food complaints point to the airflow and defrost parts, which a technician checks along with the door seals. Loud or nonstop compressor noise should be described by sound type, since a steady hum and a rattle lead to different fixes. Water under the unit is worth tracing to the defrost drain or the dispenser supply before the visit. The owner can safely check the door gaskets and wipe the etched shelf edges, and should leave the wood-look tray in place while checking. Copy the complete model string from the rating label, since extra letters follow this base.
The model number is printed on the rating label, usually on a side wall or the ceiling inside the fresh-food section, or behind the base grille; match it letter for letter before booking, because a single letter can change parts.
