LOCATION

IMPORTANT :

A flush installation is NOT possible with a 24" (60.9 

cm) deep opening.

To avoid floor damage, make sure levelers are raised 

(not touching floor) and refrigerator is on rollers 

before moving.

Use the installation block, attached to the door hinge, 

as a reference to make sure the refrigerator is pushed 

back far enough into the opening, so that when 

the panels are installed they will be flush with the 

adjacent cabinets.

After the refrigerator is leveled and aligned, remove 

the installation block from the door hinge and use 

it to check the spacing between the panels and 

adjacent cabinets.

NOTE :

 The installation block is designed to provide 

accurate spacing for 3/4" (1.9 cm), 3/8" (9.53 mm) and 1/8" 

(3.18 mm).

1. 

Place top of cardboard carton or plywood under 

refrigerator. 

Remove dolly.

2. 

Move the refrigerator straight back and evenly into 

the opening. 

Be sure that the water tubing is not 

kinked and the power supply cord is on top of the 

refrigerator.

NOTE :

 If the power supply cord is behind the 

refrigerator, it will not install properly.

3. 

Make sure the installation block is flush with the 

adjacent 

cabinets.

NOTE :

 To achieve a flush installation, it is critical to 

verify a 3/4" (1.9 cm) depth from the front face of the 

adjacent cabinetry to the refrigerator.
