Built-in Installation with Custom Side Panel

• A custom side panel is necessary when the refrigerator

is installed at the end of a cabinet run. The side panel

covers the side of the refrigerator chassis.

• The required depth of the side panel is the same as the

depth of the cabinet on the opposite side of the unit.

• A support board is mounted to the wall behind the

refrigerator. It will act as a bracket to attach the custom

side panel to the wall behind the refrigerator.

• The refrigerator is shipped with the side trim pieces pre-

installed. These trim pieces have screw holes that allow

the unit to attached to the cabinet and side panel using

1/8” diameter wood screws.

• See tables on this page for cutout dimensions.

Installation inside a cabinet of this width allows the

refrigerator trim to be attached directly to the surrounding

cabinets.
This width is the minimum that must be kept when the side

trim is removed to allow for proper ventilation.

Installation in cabinets of this height requires that the back

of the cabinet be ventilated through the top. Otherwise,

a 2-inch height increase in cabinet height is required for

adequate ventilation
