Original VarioSafe K2 drawer body for Liebherr freezers 9041576

The original Liebherr VarioSafe K2 drawer body number 9041576 is the direct solution for a broken, cracked or unstable freezer drawer. The part is suitable for freestanding and integrated freezers from the GN and GP series, including models GN1063, GN1153, GN1273, GP1213 and GP1373. Self-replacement is possible in a few minutes - without tools and without a technician.

The drawer broke? It happens. Plastic exposed to freezing temperatures for years becomes brittle, and the drawer body is often the first part to show damage – especially when quickly removing frozen goods. In our experience, most customers who contact us with a broken freezer drawer have completed the replacement themselves, in less than five minutes.

A moment before ordering – safety above all! To ensure a successful repair and maintain the longevity of the device, it is mandatory to use only original parts. Non-original parts may cause damage. Now click the 'Check Model Compatibility' button at the top of the page and our system will immediately confirm that the part is suitable for you.

Why does the drawer body break – and what do we do?

Freezer drawers break for one reason: plastic that has stood for years in temperatures of minus 18 degrees becomes brittle. A sharp removal of a frozen product that has become stuck, irregular pressure on the sides of the drawer, or a fall during cleaning – any of these is enough. The crack starts small, and develops until the drawer completely falls apart. This is where the original part 9041576 comes in – a plastic drawer body, manufactured to Liebherr’s exact specifications for the GN and GP series.

✅ Perfect fit – identical dimensions to the original part, including the connection points to the rails and front panel

✅ Freeze-resistant plastic – a material chosen to withstand extreme temperature fluctuations over the long term

✅ Undamaged rails – the drawer slides smoothly on the original rails, without friction or stops

⚠️ Non-original parts often do not match the exact dimensions and tend to fall apart in less than one season.

Where is the model sticker on your freezer? On GP series freestanding freezers – the sticker is on the inside left side, near the second drawer from the bottom. On GN series integrated freezers – the sticker is on the inside of the freezer compartment, on the left side near the bottom. Click the 'Check Compatibility' button to match by E-Nr.

🔧 How do you replace the VarioSafe K2 drawer body?

The replacement is simple and does not require tools. It usually takes 3-5 minutes. There is no need to unplug the freezer. Here is the procedure:

1. Step 1 – Remove the drawer – Pull the drawer all the way out. Lift slightly and pull outward. The drawer will come straight out of the rails.
2. Step 2 – Separate the front panel – Press the plastic tabs on both sides of the drawer body and pull the front panel out of the body.
3. Step 3 – Attach the board to the new body – Insert the front panel into the new drawer body until you feel a click.
4. Step 4 – Put it back in – Insert the drawer into the rails at a right angle and push until it stops.

⚠️ Before inserting the drawer – check that the rails are clean and that there are no plastic fragments from the old drawer that may block them.

💡 Tip from the experts

From our technicians’ experience: The number one reason for premature failure of freezer drawers is excessive loading – placing heavy items on the edge of the open drawer. A split-second action that causes a break on the corner. A simple habit extends the life of the drawer by years: When removing heavy items, always support the bottom of the drawer with one hand. Another tip that most people don’t know – once every six months, wipe the drawer rails with a damp cloth. Dirt that accumulates there causes friction that stresses the connection points of the drawer body.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Does the drawer body 9041576 also include the front panel?

No. SKU 9041576 is the drawer body only – the inner plastic part. The clear front panel (drawer front) is a separate part. If the front panel is intact and only the body is broken, it is enough to order that part only. Check the panel before ordering – save unnecessary cost.

Can I replace it myself without prior experience?

Yes. This is one of the easiest DIY operations there is. No tools required, no technical knowledge required, and no need to disconnect from the power supply. Three actions of pressing and pulling – and you’re done. In our experience, even customers who have never repaired an appliance themselves complete the replacement in less than 5 minutes.

How do I know this is the right body for my model?

Make sure your freezer model is listed as compatible – GN1063, GN1153, GN1273, GP1213 or GP1373. If you are unsure, find the model sticker (E-Nr) inside the freezer and click the 'Check Model Compatibility' button. An order mistake equals a mismatch – seconds of checking save you having to return.
