Then, follow the letters and colored arrows to correctly
place the drilling template on the back side panels.
NOTE: Check the direction of the arrows to determine which
holes to mark when the template is aligned at the top of the

Door Panels
1. Place panels on a firm, covered, flat surface with the front
facing down.
2. Locate the 2 predrilled holes in the handle side edge of the
door panel.
3. Using the installation block as a guide for depth, attach a
shoulder washer with a hex head pointed screw (both provided
with refrigerator) into the predrilled door panel (2 per door).
4. For the mounting bracket, insert the hex-head pointed screws
(provided with refrigerator) into the wood at the top of the door
panels where they were predrilled.
NOTE: It is critical to use the
⁵⁄₈
" screw, the longest length
provided, to attach the bracket to the top of the door panel.
5. Attach a mounting bracket to the top edge of each door panel
by placing the large end of the keyhole slot over the screws and
sliding the bracket so that the screws are centered in the slots.
NOTE: Start with the screws in the center of the slots as
shown, then move the door panel, as necessary, to align.
