Overlap Fit with Trim Ring
This configuration is recommended when the wall is fin
-
ished with ½ in. thick gypsum wallboard, or other facing
material(s) not exceeding 9/16 in. thickness beyond the
wall framing. The wallboard or facing material is finished
up to the finishing stops on the face of the appliance.
The Trim Ring will be installed on the Front, so that it
overlaps the edges of the wall board or facing material.
1.
Remove the Trim Ring/Front Assembly by pulling
evenly to remove it from the appliance. Set the Trim
Ring/Front Assembly aside in a clean and secure
location.
2. Apply a protective masking over the outer glass
panel to shield it from construction debris, drywall
debris, paint, mortar, etc. The glass can also be
protected by carefully wrapping it in the plastic bag
that contained the appliance in its packaging.
3.
If finishing with painted drywall, install ½ in. thick
gypsum wallboard so that it mates with the finishing
stops around the appliance opening. See Figure
4.5.
4.
If finishing with another desired facing material up
to 9/16 in. total thickness, install the material so it
mates with the finishing stops around the appliance
opening. See Figure 4.5.
5.
Complete finishing of the wall, including any prim
-
ing, painting, grouting, etc. Remove the protective
masking that was covering the glass panel during
finishing.
NOTICE:
To minimize possible dust contamination
of the appliance interior, always use effective dust
collection on wall finishing tools, such as rotary cut
-
ting spiral saws or sanders.
6.
Test fit the Trim Ring/Front Assembly to the ap
-
pliance opening. It should securely latch to the
appliance at all magnets located at each corner and
perimeter of the frame. There should be approxi
-
mately 1/16 in. clearance between the front and the
glass.
7.
If necessary, adjust Trim Ring out in the Front to
allow for additional clearance for the wall finishing
thickness. Make the adjustment by loosening the
screws, adjusting, the tightening the screws. See
Figure 4.6.
8. After finishing any necessary adjustments, fit the
Trim Ring/Front Assembly into the appliance open
-
ing. Verify that all magnets securely latch to the
appliance. There should be approximately 1/16 in.
clearance between the front and the glass.
9. The Trim Ring will overlap the stop of the finished
wall. See Figure 4.7.
