THE INSTALLATION SPACE
IMPORTANT: Double-Drawer Refrigerators are
designed to be built-in only. They cannot be used
free-standing.
NOTE: The drawers should 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 23-1⁄8"
min. clearance from the front for drawer opening.
NOTE: Custom handle clearances may vary depending on
the standoff of the custom handles.
• 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. NOTE: When installing
custom panels and handles, use above clearances as
a general guide but adjust according to the installation.
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.
Black or Stainless Steel Toekick Options
• These products are shipped with two toekicks,
a stainless steel and a black toekick. For shipping
purposes, one of the toekicks will be secured to
the back of the unit and the second will be installed,
in place, on the unit. Keep the unused toekick,
and other unused or removed parts, for future use.
Allow 22" clearance
at the front for full
extension of drawers.
