Trim kits and decorator panels.

For CustomStyle models

Read these instructions completely and carefully.

Before You Begin

Some models are equipped with trim kits that allow you to install door panels. You can order pre-cut black or white decorator panels from GE Parts and Accessories, 800-626-2002, or you can add wood panels to match your kitchen cabinets.

Panels less than 1/4(6 mm) thick

When installing wood panels less than 1/4″ (6 mm) thick, you need to create a filler panel, such as 1/8″ cardboard, that will fit between the face of the door and the wood panel. If you are installing the pre-cut decorator panels, pre-cut filler panels are included in the kit. The combined thickness of the decorator or wood panel and the filler panel should be 1/4″ (6 mm).

3/4(19 mm) or Raised Panel

A raised panel design screwed or glued to a 1/4″ (6 mm) thick backing, or a 3/4″ (19 mm) routed board can be used. The raised portion of the panel must be fabricated to permit clearances of at least 2″ (51 mm) from the handle side for fingertip clearance.
