PREPARING THE SPACE
Make sure the installation opening is properly
prepared. Refer to Figure 1 (page 3) for space
dimensions.
CAUTION
If unit is to be installed under a countertop,
it is recommended that the countertop be
supported by a structure other than the unit
itself, to prevent damage to the countertop.
IMPORTANT:
For a cabinet door to operate
properly, the door must be open a minimum of
94° (see Figure 1). Use a minimum 3-3/32” filler in
corner installations to ensure a 94° opening. Allow
enough clearance in front of the unit for full door
swing or shelf pull-out.

Make sure floor under unit is level
with the surrounding finished floor. Protect finished
floor with plywood, rug, cardboard or some other
suitable material before moving the unit into place.
Failure to do this may result in damage to the floor.
