Install Refrigerator And Panels - Jenn-Air JS42NXFXDW Installation Manual

IMPORTANT: Jenn-Air is not responsible for the removal or
addition of molding or wood overlay panels that would not allow
access to the refrigerator for service.
Install Refrigerator to Adjacent Cabinets
1. Open the refrigerator and freezer doors to locate the cabinet
brackets on each side.
2. Using the bracket holes as a template, predrill a ¹⁄₈" deep pilot
hole into the adjacent cabinet.
3. Using two round head screws (provided with refrigerator) for
each bracket, anchor the refrigerator to the adjacent cabinets.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to anchor the other side of the
refrigerator to the adjacent cabinets.
Install Cabinet Side Trims
Install cabinet side trims to hide the brackets fastening the
refrigerator to the adjacent cabinets.
1. Open both doors to a 90° angle.
2. With the lip edge of the trim toward the back wall, insert the
cabinet side trim between the side of the refrigerator and the
adjacent cabinetry.
NOTE: Keep the top edge of the trim piece flush with the top
of the refrigerator. Installing the trim higher than the
refrigerator top could cause damage to the trim when the door
is opened.

IMPORTANT: The grille panel height allows the necessary airflow
for refrigerator performance. The top grille filler hides the upper

the recommended grille panel dimensions, performance will be
compromised.
