836978 Genuine Humidity Control Crisper Lid for Fisher & Paykel 900mm Fridges, F&P 900 Vegetable Crisper Cover

For F&P's 900mm wide fridges, 836978 is the genuine Fisher & Paykel humidity control lid that covers the crisper bin. It's the 900 size version, with the 680 bottom mount lid sold separately as 836573. We don't hold a list of compatible models, so check the model and serial number on the label inside your fridge, then confirm 836978 on its parts list.

Why the crisper lid affects freshness

Fresh produce lasts longest when the crisper holds the right moisture level. The lid seals the top of the crisper and its humidity control adjusts how much air moves in and out. When the lid cracks or the control snaps, the bin can't hold that balance. Salad greens go limp, herbs dry out, and some fruit may sweat and spoil faster. A damaged lid can also rattle or sit crooked so the bin doesn't close properly.

Changing the lid

Pull out the crisper bin to get clear access. Release the old lid from its supports, checking whether it lifts at the front or slides out towards you. Fit the new one, make sure the humidity control slides or turns smoothly, and refit the bin. This job doesn't need the power turned off.

Questions about this part

How do I set the humidity control?

As a general rule, close the vent for leafy greens and vegetables that wilt, and open it for fruit that gives off moisture. Your fridge's user manual will have the recommended settings for your particular model.
