STEP 11 INSTALL DISPENSER
TRIM
Skip this step is you are installing a stainless
steel wrapped refrigerator.
There are two dispenser trims shipped with your
refrigerator. Select the appropriate trim for your
application.
Framed
Panel
Trim
Compare the dispenser trims. Note that the inside
depth of the frames are different. Choose the trim
with less depth for framed panels, choose the
deeper one for overlay panels.
Dispenser trim fit over the custom panel depends on
correct panel thickness. See pages 7 and 8 for panel
construction information.
• Press and snap the dispenser trim into the
dispenser recess on the refrigerator door.
If an excessive gap exists around the dispenser trim
or if the panel fits loosely in the door frame, foam
tape may be applied to help improve the fit. Remove
the trim and panel and apply foam tape to the door
around the dispenser and in the corners.
