An enclosure is required to match up to the trim, see Typical Installation. To obtain the
most integrated look, the cabinet or soffit above the refrigerator should extend out to the
same depth as the side panels. The refrigerator opening must have minimum dimensions
of 70-1/4" high x 36-1/8" wide x 24-1/2" deep as shown at right. If there is an overhead
cabinet, allow 1" for cabinet door clearance with the top trim piece so the cabinet doors
can be opened without hitting the top trim. If 1/2" side panels are used, then side trim
and panel will be even. If 3/4" side panels are used, then some of the side panel will
extend beyond the trim and must be finished.
Collar Trim Installation
*The rough-in dimension of 70-1/4" is minimum and is
measured from the finished floor to top of opening (or the
underside of the overhead cabinets).
For Models with Trim Kit: If frameless style cabinets are planned
for above the refrigerator, you may need to consider adding a
maximum of 1/4" (70-1/2") to height of opening to allow addi-
tional clearance between cabinet doors and top of refrigerator
trim when cabinet doors are in open position.
