PROPER DISPOSAL OF YOUR
OLD REFRIGERATOR
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not
problems of the past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators
are still dangerous – even if they will sit for “just a few
days.” If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator, please
follow these instructions to help prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator:
Take off the door.
Leave the racks in place so that children may not
easily climb inside.
FEATURES
1. Stealth Flush Design with
Smooth Close Door
Create an unbroken silhouette. Discreet 1/8" reveals
envelop every side, without exposed hinges or trim
pieces. Quiet, soft, secure. An articulating hinge
discreetly ushers the door open and gently pulls it
closed.
2. Daring Obsidian Interior
Inspired by volcanic glass, this dark finish erupts
with reflective, high-contrast style. Let the object of
your desire emerge like vibrant art, begging to be
consumed.
3. Glass Shelves
Gaze through platforms of glass wrapped in
unyielding shelf frames.
4. UV-Resistant Low-E Thermal Glass
Sustain what satiates. Double-paned glass helps filter
out ultraviolet light and rejects temperature swings
to reserve the finest tastes for your discerning palate.
5. LED Lighting
LED lights instinctively come alive, chasing away
shadows to reveal vivid details.
6. RISE™ Design Expression
Embrace an era of striking proportions. A stainless
steel suit of armor gleams with spectacular light. This
is strength—inextricable from beauty. Forged in the
fires of progress, the RISE™ design expression towers
over stagnant, uninspired designs that have inherited
undeserved standing.
7. NOIR™ Design Expression
Lose yourself in a world that’s yours alone. Crisp
silhouettes crackle with mystique; beguiling
reflections flow in and out of sight. Taut with
ceaseless allure and minimalist appeal, the NOIR™
design expression rejects dated ideals of beauty.
8. Custom Panel Overlay
Break free with custom panels that allow
unapologetic expression. Custom panels and handles
must be purchased separately.
9. Door Open Alarm
Helps protect food by giving an audio and visual alert
if the door is left open for 10 minutes.
10. Display Lighting Option
Features energy-efficient LED lights that provide
a clear view without excessive heat that can affect
internal temperatures.
11. Hushed Acoustics
Our internal compressor keeps your beverages
impeccably chilled, while running unobtrusively in
the background. Brilliance doesn’t have to announce
itself; it just is.
12. Emotive Controls
Hold sway over every zone. Let your light-guided
touch coax out the flavors of beverages, spirits and
beyond.
WARNING
Suffocation Hazard
Remove doors from your old refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.
Important information to know about disposal of
refrigerants:
Dispose of refrigerator in accordance with Federal and Local
regulations. Refrigerants must be evacuated by a licensed,
EPA certified refrigerant technician in accordance with
established procedures.

need to create the panel yourself or consult a qualified
cabinetmaker or carpenter. Refer dimension drawings for
panel specifications.

The thickness of the overlay panel must be 3/4"
(19 mm).
Custom solid door overlay panel must not weigh

shown in the illustration "Solid door overlay panel and
hinge routing dimensions". Rout shaded areas to a 1/2"
(12 mm) depth as shown.
IMPORTANT: The following graphic shows a custom
panel for a door with the hinges installed on the right-
hand side. If your refrigerator has the hinges installed on
the left-hand side, rotate the custom frame 180° so the
hinge markings will be on the left.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS Before you move your refrigerator into its final location, it
is important to make sure you have the proper electrical
connection.
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
A 115 V, 60 Hz, AC only, 15 or 20 A fused, grounded
electrical supply is required. It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving only your refrigerator be provided.
Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch. Do
not use an extension cord.
NOTE: Before performing any type of installation,
cleaning, or removing a light bulb, unplug refrigerator or
disconnect power.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
UNPACK THE REFRIGERATOR
Before using your refrigerator, all packaging materials
should be removed and the interior should be cleaned.
Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before
turning on the refrigerator. With your fingers, rub a
small amount of liquid dish soap over any adhesive
and wipe with warm water to remove.
Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol,
flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove
tape or glue. These can damage the surfaces of your
refrigerator. For more information, refer “Refrigerator
Safety” section.
Dispose of and/or recycle all packaging materials.
After all packaging materials have been removed,
clean the inside of your refrigerator. Refer the
cleaning instructions in “Cleaning” section.
NOTE: For standard stainless steel or glass door models,
skip to "Door Closing" section.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
WARNING
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install
refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
Important information to know about glass shelves
and covers:
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when
they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to
sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping.
Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small,
pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers
are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid
dropping.

CUSTOM OVERLAY PANEL INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT:
Create custom overlay panel according to the
specifications in the “Custom Overlay Panel” section.
JennAir is not responsible for the removal or addition
of molding or decorative panels that would not allow
access to the refrigerator for service.
1. Open the door completely to 90°.
2. Remove the gasket from the corners of the door,
pulling gently until the two screw holes in each
corner of the door can be seen.
NOTE: The gasket does not have to be removed from
the door, only the corners.
3. Using two people, hold the custom overlay panel
against the door. Be sure that the top and bottom
hinges fit accurately into the routing on back of the
custom wood panel.
NOTE: Handle needs to be installed before the custom
overlay door panel has been installed on the refrigerator
door.
4. Fasten the custom panel to the door using two wood
screws (provided in installation kit) at each corner.
5. Press the gasket firmly back into it’s original position.

INSTALLATION AND DOOR CLOSING
Your refrigerator has four leveling legs. If your refrigerator
seems unsteady or you want the door to close more
easily, adjust the refrigerator’s tilt using the instructions
below.
1. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
2. Move the refrigerator into its final location.
3. Turn the leveling legs to the right to lower the
refrigerator, or turn the leveling legs to the left to
raise it. It may take several turns of the leveling legs to
adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the
refrigerator takes some weight off the leveling legs.
This makes it easier to adjust the leveling legs.
4. Open the door and check that it closes as easily as
you like. If not, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the
rear by turning both front leveling screws to the right.
It may take several more turns, and you should turn
both leveling legs the same amount.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
WARNING
