Toe-kick area/upper molding of cutout (niche).

Toe-kick and venting grill

Important

Poor ventilation leads to damage to the appliance. Under no circumstances is it permitted to cover the air inlets and the exhaust air outlets of the appliance in the lower base area.

You must observe the minimum distance of 4" between the upper edge of the floor and the bottom edge of the door panel of the appliance. Pay attention to the height adjustment for the appliance by leveling the legs.

In relation to the standard height, the maximum height of the toe- kick is 4". The toe-kick can be maximum ¾" thick.

Upper molding

The planning of decorative upper molding above the cutout requires taking into account the actual or desired height of the door panel.

The overall height of the door panel will depend on:

––the height of the appliance, typically 84" (2134 mm)—lev- eling legs allow height adjustment ranging from -½" (-13

mm)to +1 ⅜" (+35 mm)

––the installed height of the door panel (distance from the bottom edge of the door panel to the floor, typically 4" (102 mm), and, if desired, any extension of the custom panel above the appliance cutout)

––the appliance type (single door or bottom freezer)

Velcro adhesive strips are supplied on the front panel of the appliance to fasten the toe-kick to the appliance.

The venting grill and the exhaust air outlets of the appliance, as well as the access to the water filter (if available) are located above the toe-kick area. They must not be covered.

Toe-kick

For design reasons, it may be necessary to increase the distance between the upper edge of the floor and the bottom edge of the door panel of the appliance, so that it extends beyond the standard dimension of 4". The maximum dimension is 7 ⅛". The toe-kick thickness must not exceed ¾". If this is the case, ventilation grill, exhaust air outlets and the access to the water filter would become visible.

Important

Please recall that a panel should be installed at a minimum height of 4" (102 mm) from the floor to allow proper ventilation of the appliance.

Always ensure that the top of the cutout or upper decorative molding is at least 4" (102 mm) deep, so that the refrigerator can be properly secured to the cutout wall. This is particularly important if a protruding cutout is specially created and configured with a face frame. Furniture returns for any face frame must be a minimum of 4" (102 mm) deep.
