Install Base Grille

There are two pieces to the base grille to allow for a custom fit: the base grille itself and the skirt. The skirt can be added to the base grille in order to extend it all the way to the floor.

1.To see if the skirt is needed, place the base grille into position. Do not attach the base grille to the refrigerator. Measure the distance between the bottom of the base grille and the floor. The gap must be a minimum of ¹⁄₂" (1.27 cm) in order to add the skirt.

NOTE: If the gap measures less than ¹⁄₂" (1.27 cm), skip steps 3 and 4 of the instructions, and install the base grille only.

2.Remove the film from the base grille.

3.Snap the skirt onto the base grille.

Install Side Panel

If the built-in area depth is 25" (63.5 cm) or more, the side panels can be installed inside the side trim or attached to the outside of the side trim.

IMPORTANT: KitchenAid is not responsible for the removal or addition of molding or decorative panels that would not allow access to the refrigerator for service.

1.For the inside side trim piece, slide the front edge of the routed side panel into the trim piece.

2.Nail the rear edge of the panel to the support board.
