KitchenAid 2316565C manual Classic Series Custom Panels, Top Grille Panel, Model a

If you plan to install custom wood panels, you will need to create the panels yourself or consult a qualified cabinetmaker or carpenter. See dimension drawings for panel specifications.

IMPORTANT: Panels weighing more than recommended may cause damage to your refrigerator.

NOTE: Dimensions shown have a (±) ¹⁄₁₆" (1.5 mm) tolerance. Panels that are more than ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) thick must be routed. If panels are less than ¹⁄₄" (6.35 mm) thick, install a filler panel between the doors and decorative panels.

NOTES:

■If the standard handle is used, the handle side offset of both panels should be 3¹⁄₄" (8.25 cm) to allow for finger clearance.

■If an extended handle is used, the handle side offset of both panels should be ⁷⁄₁₆" (1.1 cm). Make sure the refrigerator location allows the doors with extended handles to open to 90 degrees. See “Door Swing Dimensions.”

■The dashed lines in the illustration represent the location and offsets of raised wood panel.
