NOTES
These refrigerators are supplied with two
dispenser trims, one for framed panels
and one for overlay panels.
1/4" Panel Dispenser Trim:
The framed panel must be 1/4” nominal
thickness to fit the dispenser trim.
• The dispenser trim ts over the custom
panel and snaps into the freezer door.
• If the panel is less than 0.250" thick, a
noticeable gap may be created around
the dispenser trim. Foam tape may be
applied on the door to improve the fit.
• If the panel is more than 0.250" thick,
the dispenser trim cannot be secured
to the door.
3/4" Overlay Panel Dispenser Trim:
The 3/4” overlay dispenser trim is
designed to fit a total panel thickness of
1.100".
• If the panel is less than 1.100" thick, a
noticeable gap may be created around
the dispenser trim.
• If the panel is more than 1.100" thick,
the dispenser trim cannot be secured to
the door.
• The overlay panel must be constructed
according to the specifications shown to
achieve the correct total thickness.
• Alternative panel construction methods
such as securing a 3/4" panel to a 1/4"
backer panel cannot be used. Another
method, routing a 3/4"-thick panel
on all sides, cannot be used. These
methods will not result in the required
1.100" panel thickness.
• When a raised panel design is to be
used, a custom middle rail is required.
Raised Overlay Panel Design on
Dispenser Models:
When a raised panel design is to be used,
a custom wide middle rail is required to
accept the dispenser trim.
• The middle rail must be wide enough to
allow for the dispenser trim to overlap
the opening.
• The middle rail must be 1.10” total
thickness to accept the dispenser trim.
