Panel Installation
Flush Inset Panels
If your customer has chosen the flush inset panel applica-
tion, make sure that the panels you are about to install
match dimensions listed in the flush inset panel specifica-
tions on pages 32–33. Additional panel design information
can be found in the Sub-Zero design guide and on our
website, subzero.com.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The size of the flush inset panel is
critical. It must be sized correctly for a proper fit inside the
opening.
Overlay models are shipped without handle hardware.
The cabinet manufacturer or designer will provide handle
hardware at the job site to match the overall decorating
scheme.
To install flush inset panels, first remove the door trim
molding. For side-by-side models and the upper door for
over-and-under models, insert a screwdriver tip into the
top corner slot on the handle side and pop out the trim
molding. Remove the screws and frame. For the drawer
on over-and-under models, insert a screwdriver tip into
the slot on either side of the trim molding running along
the top of the drawer, and pop out the trim molding.
Remove the screws and frame. Refer to the illustrations
on page 23.

Sub-Zero allows a
material into place in the frame. If your material is thicker
than a
a proper fit or mount the decorative flush inset panel on a
sheet of
material into the channel.
You must allow for 0.10"
board and the decorative panel, so the panel will slide
easily into the door frame.
The illustration below provides a rear view of the three-
panel assembly with critical dimensions, standard for all
built-in models.
IMPORTANT NOTE: With the panels installed,
minimum reveals must be kept on all sides to ensure
proper door opening and sufficient cooling of the unit.
