I N S TA L L AT I O N G U I D E – GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Even though Jenn-Air Built-In Refrigerators are available in
®
a wide range of design styles and configurations, the basic
installation planning information for all models have things in
common. After the decision has been made to install a Jenn-Air
Built-In Refrigerator, be sure to review the installation require-
ments for the model design chosen.
Make sure the opening where the unit will be installed is
properly prepared. Refer to Figure 1. Also check placement
for electrical outlet and water line as shown in Figure 1.

For the door to open properly, it must be able to open at least
90 degrees. For installation in a corner, a 2-inch filler strip is
required to ensure the 90-degree opening. Be sure to add the
filler strip width to your finished rough-in dimension.
The floor under the refrigerator has to be level with the surround-
ing floor. To protect the floor when moving the refrigerator, place
cardboard, or better yet, a carpet remnant with the backing
placed up, on the floor.
IMPORTANT TIP: Refer to the illustrations at the end of this
section for details on door openings and filler size alternatives.
Important: Because of continuing product improvements, Jenn-Air reserves the right to change specifications without notice. Dimensional specifications are provided for
planning purposes only. For complete details see installation instructions packed with product before selecting cabinetry, making cutouts or beginning installation.
