It is not difficult but you have two choices: remove the whole kitchen cabinet and then take out the fridge, or remove the fridge alone. IMHO removing the cabinet is easier. Warning: if you plan to remove the cabinet, first look in the compartment under the driver seat for a sheet metal screw that goes through the sheet metal and into the cabinet. If there is one, remove it first. While you have the fridge out, stand it upside down for 48 hours to get the ammonia mixed up in the system again.
