Overlay Series Custom Panels

Custom overlay panels allow you to blend the exterior of your refrigerator into the overall kitchen décor and to use custom handles for additional design flexibility.

The custom panels must have backer panels attached in order to mount them to the refrigerator. It is most common to work with three panels, as shown in the following graphic: a decorative overlay panel, a ¹/₈" (3.18 mm) spacer panel or spacer strips and a ¹/₄" (6.35 mm) backer panel.

In some cases, your cabinet manufacturer may choose to work with one panel routed for the different dimensions. Follow these panel dimension and placement instructions to be sure that the custom overlay panels will fit properly.

IMPORTANT:

■ For 36" (91.4 cm) models, the refrigerator door overlay panel

cannot exceed 50 lbs (23 kg) and the freezer drawer overlay

panel cannot exceed 20 lbs (9.1 kg).

■	For 42" (106.7 cm) models, the refrigerator door overlay panel
	cannot exceed 30 lbs (13.5 kg) and the freezer drawer overlay
	panel cannot exceed 25 lbs (11.4 kg).
■	The weight of the top grille overlay panel cannot exceed
	10 lbs (4.5 kg) for both models.

To minimize panel weight, you may use 2" (5.08 cm) spacer strips around the perimeter in place of full-sheet solid spacer panels. The spacer strips must be set in at least 1" (2.54 cm) from the top, bottom and side edges of the backer panel. If you use spacer strips, it is also recommended that you use two 2" (5.08 cm) strips horizontally centered for added support.
