There are two pieces to the base grille to allow for a custom fit: the
110°
base grille itself and the skirt. The skirt can be added to the base
grille in order to extend it all the way to the floor.
1. To see if the skirt is needed, place the base grille into position.
Do not attach the base grille to the refrigerator. Measure the
distance between the bottom of the base grille and the floor.
The gap must be a minimum of
the skirt.
NOTE: If the gap measures less than
steps 3 and 4 of the instructions, and install the base grille
only.
