Site Planning for Expansion Pods
The XLS-812300 can be expanded by adding one or two expansion pods. If you plan to
install expansion pods (whether during the initial installation or in the future), consider
the recommended installation order:
1.
Install the base unit.
2.
Install the expansion pod on the
right
side of the base.
3.
Install the expansion pod on the
left
side of the base.
