Standard, New Construction and Replacement Installation
Installation Tips to Maximize the Built-In Look
• All wall/floor moulding should be removed prior to installation.
• Water recess on rear wall recommended to prevent water line damage.
48" minimum length 1/4" diameter water line tubing recommended.
• When possible, recess both copper water line and electrical outlet.
(See local codes)
• Front and rear leveling legs are adjustable for the built-in look.
(See owner’s manual)
Handle Side Clearance
– At least 2" (51 mm) on the handle side for fingertip clearances.
Top and Bottom Clearance
– At least 3/16" (4.75 mm) at the top and bottom edges to allow for trim flange.
Hinge Side Clearance
– The installation of 3/4" (19 mm) thick side panels requires less clearance
because the space between the door and adjacent countertop is wider.
• To avoid door contact to countertop consider:
– Miter the corner of the adjacent countertops 45°, or pull the refrigerator
forward enough to avoid contact.
