SIDE PANEL
When installing a custom side panel, an accessory kit is
required and is available through an authorized Sub-Zero
dealer. For local dealer information, visit the find a show-
room section of our website, subzero.com. Stainless steel
side panels are also available from an authorized Sub-Zero
dealer.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The use of side panels may change
the width of the opening.
A custom side panel must be a minimum of 610 mm deep
and 13 mm thick. Routing will be necessary for the side
panel to fit flush against the side of the unit. Refer to the
illustrations below.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The height of the side panel will vary
with the height of the grille. Verify the finished height
before modifying the panels.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
For over-and-under and French door
models, additional routing will be necessary to accommo-
date the lower hinge plate of the refrigerator.

GRILLE PANEL
Remove the bottom grille frame by extracting the two
lower corner screws from each side of the grille assembly.
Refer to the illustration below.
With the bottom section removed, slide the custom grille
panel into the frame. If the panel is thinner than 6 mm, a
filler material will need to be installed to achieve a proper
fit. Once the panel is installed, reattach the bottom grille
frame by sliding the corner brackets back into position,
then reinstall the four corner screws.

LEVELING
Once the unit is in position, turn the front leveling legs
clockwise to adjust the height. The rear height adjustment
can be made from the front of the roller base. Using a 3/8"
socket, turn the 3/8" hex bolt clockwise to raise the unit or
counterclockwise to lower. Use the lowest torque setting
when using a power drill. Do not turn the rear leveling legs
by hand. Refer to the illustration below.
When the unit is properly leveled, door and drawer adjust-
ments are less likely to be necessary.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Level the unit to the floor, not the sur-
rounding cabinetry. This could affect the operation of the
unit, such as door closing.
