Hello,

I received my new Ikea kitchen yesterday. Unfortunately, a drawer front in the wrong color was delivered. It is the drawer system Maximera.

For the sake of speed, I suggested handling the replacement myself. However, I am already struggling to remove the old front. It would be great if you could give me some tips. Which mechanism do I need to release and where so that the front can be detached?

Thanks for any tips

Hello,
I assume the drawer was purchased in Germany and has no railing.
1. Remove the white cover cap on the sides.
2. In the middle, there is an almost rectangular hole.
3. In the hole, you can see a partially covered cross hole in a metal plate.
4. Insert a sufficiently large Phillips screwdriver there. The partially covering metal plate will automatically lift.
5. Turn the screwdriver clockwise on the left side. On the other side, turn it counterclockwise.
6. Done

The whole process is also shown in the assembly instructions.
