PANEL INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION
Water Line
Approximately .9 m of
1
/
4
" plastic tubing is connected to
the unit with a preassembled
1
/
4
" compression connection
under the unit. The water line fitting connection kit, provided
with the unit, contains a
1
/
4
" compression union fitting for
connection to the household water line.
Purge the water line prior to final connection to the unit. This
will remove any debris that may be present in the tubing
from installing the new water line.
Place the sleeve and nut on the water line and fasten
to the connection at the end of the tubing. Do not over
tighten. Check all water line fittings for leaks. Verify the
drain pan can be installed and removed without water line
interference.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If a reverse osmosis system used, it is
recommended that the water filtration system be bypassed
by removing the filter.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Water lines can not be exposed to
freezing temperatures.
Custom Panels
For overlay and flush inset applications, custom door and
grille panels must be installed. Panel size is critical for a
proper fit. To verify panel requirements and dimensions,
refer to the Sub-Zero design guide at subzero.com/specs.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Flush inset applications require a
minimum 13 mm reveal on all sides.
Finish all sides of custom panels. They may be visible when
the door is open.
Placement
CAUTION
Before moving the unit into position, secure door(s)
closed and protect any finished flooring.
Use an appliance dolly to move the unit near the opening.
If the unit has been on its back or side, it must stand upright
for a minimum of 24 hours before connecting power.
Plug the power cord into the grounded outlet and roll the
unit into position. Verify the anti-tip brackets are properly
engaged.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If used, side panels will need to be
installed before the unit is placed in its final position. Refer
to page 8.
EXTERNAL DISPENSER
For external dispenser models, the dispenser bezel must be
removed before custom panels can be installed.
The bezel will accommodate a 6 mm thick panel for framed
applications and a 19 mm thick panel for overlay and flush
inset applications. Panels thicker than 19 mm must be
routed in the dispenser area to 29 mm (including backer and
spacer panels).
To remove the bezel:
1
Lift, rotate and remove the tray.
2
Lift and remove the grille.
3
Remove the screw from the center of the chute and
remove the chute.
4
Rotate the control panel downward and disconnect the
wire harness.
5
Remove the screws from each corner of the bezel and
pull the bezel forward.
