Tighten Freezer Door Handle FFTR1814QW4A

The top of the handle to on my freezer door is loose, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to tighten it. There are obvious screws for the bottom, but the screw at the top goes directly into the door. Does this mean I need to take the inside of the door apart? And, if so, is there anything I should know before I start disassembling things? This is a newish fridge, and I don't want to mess it up....

Thanks!

SOLVED! I figured it out!

For others who might be wondering:

Just unscrew the bottom of the handle and then slide the top of the handle up, off of its screw. Tighten that screw, slide top of handle back on, and then replace the bottom screws.

Nice job!

yes upper part usually slides down on peg with screw. 

Thanks! Now I know! Hope it helps some other perplexed person out there. I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets stumped by simplicity sometimes! :D
