Installing Backer Panels
Remove the door handle or trim piece on overlay models. A magnetic backed molding hides the handle
or overlay trim screws. Use the adhesive side of the packaging tape on the magnetic backed molding
to pull it away from door (Fig. 8a). Remove the screws with a Phillips screwdriver (Fig. 8b). Slide the
backer panel into position. The backer panel needs to be under the trim. Install the handle. Replace
the molding in the channel, and reset the magnetic backed molding. To install the backer panel on the
grille remove the screws on the top and bottom of the upper cover (Fig. 8c). DO NOT REMOVE the
foam. Slide the backer panel into place and replace screws (Fig. 8d). If the thickness of the backer
panel is less than a ¼", back it up with a sheet of shim material to obtain a ¼" thickness. Cardboard is
recommended for Stainless Steel application. For panel size refer to Fig. 10.
CAUTION
Do not drive screws or sharp objects into the doors. Do not pinch door seal when reinstalling handle.
CAUTION
When attaching a raised wood panel of ½" or
thicker, secure the raised panel to the back
of the grille cover frame. Use 4 #8 or similar
screws. See illustration for approximate
locations.
