Maytag Model Mbf1956keq Refrigerator Light Shield

I need to replace the light bulb in my Maytag model MBF1956KEQ Refrigerator. The light shield will not release by simply "sliding it towards the rear" of the refrigerator, as stated in the users manual. I don't want to break the shield. Is there a step missing from these instructions?
