THE INSTALLATION SPACE

IMPORTANT: Double-Drawer Refrigerators are
designed to be built-in only. They cannot be used
free-standing.

NOTE: The unit is designed to be flush with the
surrounding cabinets.

Additional Specifications
• A 120 volt 60Hz., 15 or 20 amp power supply is required.

An individual properly grounded branch circuit or circuit
breaker is recommended. Install a properly grounded
3-prong electrical receptacle recessed into the back
wall as shown. Electrical must be located on rear wall
as shown. NOTE: GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter)
is not recommended.

PRODUCT CLEARANCES

When installed
in a corner:

Allow 2-1⁄ 2" min. clearance between Double-Drawer
and adjacent cabinet, wall or other appliances.
Allow 22" min. clearance from the front for drawer
opening.

NOTE: Clearances are based on the noted 2-1⁄ 8" handle
standoff depth.

• Test the drawer openings. Carefully open and close

the drawers. The drawers should not rub or catch on
adjacent cabinetry. Notify the installer if the drawers
make contact with cabinetry.

Choose the location:
• These products may be closed in on the top and

three sides as long as the front is unobstructed for
air circulation and proper access to the drawers.

• Do not install these products where the temperature

will go below 55°F (13°C) or above 90°F (32°C).

• These products are not designed to be stacked one over

the other.
