Model 249FFI
with Ice Maker
Aside from the full-size units
Sub-Zero offers in its Built-In and
Integrated lines of refrigeration, we
round out our product line-up with
aline of traditional Undercounter
refrigeration which meets all of the
exacting standards you have
grown to expect from Sub-Zero.
If you desire, this unit could be
matched with a 249RP and outfit
acompact New York apartment
with all the refrigeration space
necessary.While that is a limited
application, these units can sit
side-by-side in any home bar area
and be a great combination for
those party situations.
This model should be ordered with
or without an ice maker; you
cannot retrofit the ice maker.

INSTALLATION NOTES
Refer to the illustrations and specifications
for overall dimensions, finished rough opening
dimensions and installation specifics.
For Model 249FFI with automatic ice maker,
rough in the water supply line. Connect a 1/4"
OD copper line to the house supply, being sure
to use an easily accessible shut off valve
between the supply and the unit.
Do not use self-piercing valves. A saddle
valve kit (4200880) is available from your
Sub-Zero dealer. To obtain local dealer informa-
tion, visit the Locator section of our website,
subzero.com.
Aline filter is required when water condi-
tions have a high sediment content. The ice
maker operates on water pressure of 20 psi
(1.4 bar) to 100 psi (6.9 bar). In some cases a
reverse osmosis water filter system may not be
able to maintain the minimum water pressure
consistently.
A115 V AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp fused electrical
supply is required. It is recommended that a
separate circuit, serving only this appliance, be
provided.
All Undercounter models are equipped with a
power supply cord with a 3-prong grounding
plug which must be plugged into a mating
3-prong grounding type wall receptacle. Locate
electrical within the shaded area shown in the
illustration on page 3.
You must follow all National Electrical Code
regulations. In addition, be aware of local codes
and ordinances when installing your service.
Refer to the Undercounter Installation
Instructions packed with the appliance, which
provides step-by-step procedures for making
sure the unit is installed properly.

FRAMED PANELS
Framed door panels must be 1/4"(6) thick around the
perimeter. If the panel is thicker than 1/4"(6), an edge must
be routed around the panel to ensure a proper fit. Refer to
the illustrations on this page.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The weight of the panel cannot
exceed 20 lbs (9 kg).

OVERLAY PANEL
The overlay door panel design allows for a decorative
panel to cover the door trim for a more seamless appear-
ance. To achieve this look, the most common way is to
work with three panels – the decorative 3/4"(19) thick
overlay panel, a 0.10" (3) thick spacer panel and a 1/4"(6)
thick backer panel. An accessory kit (OVERPAN) is required
in order to accommodate the proper installation of the
overlay panel. Additional specifications will be provided
with the accessory kit.
IMPORTANT NOTE: An area must be notched out on the
back edge of the overlay panel at both the top and bottom
hinges to avoid interference as shown in illustration on
this page.
Keep in mind that the Sub-Zero door panels have the
potential for hitting adjacent cabinets and/or countertops
when they are opened. You need to be aware of your
surrounding cabinetry and space limitations when using
the overlay units. Refer to the full-scale illustration on
page 7.
You will need to follow the exact dimensions and panel
placement for your model to ensure a proper fit. Refer to
the overlaypanel specifications below.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The weight of the panel assembly
cannot exceed 20 lbs (9 kg).
IMPORTANT NOTE: The total thickness of all panels for an
overlay model must be at least 5/8"(16) thick.
