Trim kits and decorator panels.

Read these instructions completely and carefully.

Before You Begin

Some models are equipped with trim kits that allow you to install door panels. You can order

pre-cut black or white decorator panels from GE Parts and Accessories, 800.626.2002, or you

can add wood panels to match your kitchen cabinets.

Panels less than 1/4 (6 mm) thick

When installing wood panels less than 1/4

(6 mm) thick, you need to create a filler panel, such as 1/8

cardboard, that will fit between the face of the door and the wood panel. If you are installing the pre-cut

decorator panels, pre-cut filler panels are included in the kit. The combined thickness of the decorator or

wood panel and the filler panel should be 11/32 (8.7 mm) with the panel itself being no larger than 1/4 (6

mm).

For panel required models

Panels 1/4 thick or less

1/4 max

The handle and the top and bottom trim stand in front of the surface of the door, which requires that the filler

be smaller in length and width than the panel. Use the guidelines below and tape the filler onto the back of the

panel.
