Installing the cable retractor

Cable retractors reduce strain on the drawer cables and connectors and simplify maintenance because they keep the cables out of the way. If you are installing a cable retractor in a Gateway cabinet, refer to the following section. If you are installing a cable retractor in a non-Gateway cabinet, go to “Installing a cable retractor in a non-Gateway cabinet” on page 20.
