How to reattach a SubZero refrigerator door handle

refrigerator

The handle on my SubZero refrigerator just came off. The "thing" that's attached to the door is fairly stiff and I haven't been able to unscrew it yet. Inside the hole in the "shim" that attaches to the handle is a star screw that holds the shim to the handle. Any idea how I would reattach this handle to the fridge?

There should be a small set screw on the inside of the handle (opposite side of the picture). This is usually driven with a small Allen key. Loosen the screw, place the handle back on flush against the door surface, and tighten the screw finger-tight. Don't over tighten as they strip easily because they are so small.

The screw will look something like this

There might be a small plastic cap over the set screw in order to better hide it.
