Installing the anti-tip-brackets
The appliance includes two anti-tip-brackets. If your cabinetry is not designed for the specific dimensions
of your appliance, or if you plan to use the appliance as a free-standing unit, you should use these
brackets to avoid your appliance tilting due to unbalanced overweight situations where the door
is
open.
For free-standing use
1. Consider the distance necessary for the appliance to be flush with the front of your cabinetry. If
there is no cabinetry, put the unit close to the wall, then take the measurement of the space at the
back, between the unit and the wall.
2. Based on the measured distance between the back of the unit and the wall, bend the anti-tip
bracket (included with the unit) from the pointed lines to form a “step” with the same Distance
measured.

2. Take the measurement from the top of the cabinet of the unit to the bottom of the counter.
The measurement X”(mm) may vary depending on the design of the counter, extension of the
legs of the product, etc.
3. Based on the Distance = X” (mm) between the appliance and the counter, bend the anti-tip-
brackets included with the appliance on the pointed lines to form a “step” 1/16” (2mm) smaller
than the Distance = X” (mm) measured.

Installing the overlay frame
(For T24UR905LP and T24UR905RP models only)
If you plan to install a custom overlay frame, you will need to create the frame yourself or consult a
qualified cabinetmaker or carpenter.
A full sized template for easier hole pattern marking is included in the manual package.
IMPORTANT:
- The thickness of the overlay frame must be ¾” (19mm).
- Overlay frame must not weigh more than 10lbs (4.54kg).
- Overlay frame weighing more than recommended may cause damage to your appliance.
- To install the frame, use only the screws included in the “installation kit”.
Create the custom overlay frame using the dimensions shown.
IMPORTANT: The following graphics shows a custom frame for a door with hinges installed on the right-
hand side. If your Glass Door Refrigerator has hinges installed on the left-hand side, rotate the custom
frame 180° so the makings will be on the left.
For detailed dimensions, see the frame specifications in Addendum A.

P

IMPORTANT: It is recommended to install the custom overlay frame with the help of another person.
1. Install the custom handle of your preference on the overlay frame before installing the frame on
the door.
- Every custom handle is different and it is the responsibility of the customer to make the
necessary adjustments to place the handle on the overlay frame.
- The screws used to affix the custom handle to the frame must be flat and flush with the surface
of the frame; if the screws are not flat, then consider making a recession on the overlay, enough to
hide the head of the screw below the surface of the overlay, otherwise the screws will interfere
with the correct placement of the overlay on the door.
2. Locate and identify every pair of holes on the overlay frame corresponding with the holes on the
door. Every hole must be aligned to screw and fasten the overlay to the door.

3. Remove the door gasket from the corners, by pulling it gently until the four screws are visible.
Then remove the two screws further to the corner. The two holes shown on the below illustration
must be accessible to screw (install) the custom overlay frame to the door. There should be 8
accessible holes in total, two per corner.
NOTE: It is not necessary to remove the entire gasket from the door, just from the corner, enough
to access to the screws.

holes
4. Align the overlay frame with the door and hold them firmly together while screwing them. It may
be easier with the help of another person to hold and keep the frame in place while fastening.
Using the 8 screws included in the installation kit, fasten the overlay frame to the door.
