Predrill Panels (custom wood panels only)
IMPORTANT: The template can be used for either a ³⁄₈" (0.95 cm)
or a ¹⁄₈" (0.32 cm) reveal installation.
The drilling templates are used only for custom wood overlay
panels.
The drilling templates are double-sided.
The drilling holes are precut into the template.
1. On the template, locate the diagram of your refrigerator. Then,
follow the letters and colored arrows to correctly place the
drilling template on the panels.
2. Predrill ¹⁄₈" (0.32 cm) deep pilot holes into the wood rails
bordering the doors and top grille panels.
Predrill Panels (panel kits only)
IMPORTANT: The panels included in the panel kits are marked for
the location of the mounting brackets only.
1. Predrill holes where marked. See "Complete Installation" later
in this section, for instructions on drilling additional holes in
the door panels.
2. Remove the film covering on stainless steel door panels
before installing brackets.
Prepare Panels (custom wood and panel kits)
IMPORTANT: The process for installing panels on the refrigerator
is the same for both custom panels and panel kits.
