Before You Begin
Some models are equipped with trim kits that allow you to install door panels. You can order
pre-cut black or white decorator panels from GE Parts and Accessories, 800.626.2002, or you
can add wood panels to match your kitchen cabinets.
Panels less than 1//4" (6 mm) thick
When installing wood panels lessthan 114" (6 mm) thick, gou need to create a filler panel, such as 118"
cardboard, that will fit between the face of the door and the wood panel. If SOUare installing the pre-cut
decorator panels, pre-cut filler panels are included in the kit. The combined thickness of the decorator or wood
panel and the filler panel should be 11/32" (8.7mm) with the panel itself being no larger than 1/4" (6 mm).
Panels1/4" thick or less
1/4" max
/,
The handle and the top and bottom trim stand in front of the surface of the door,which requires that the filler
be smaller in length and width than the panel. Use the guidelines below and tape the filler onto the back of the
panel.
