OVERLAY PANEL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Custom Overlay Drawer Panels
If you plan to install custom wood panels, you will need to create the panels yourself or consult a qualified cabinetmaker or carpenter. See dimension drawings for panel specifications.
IMPORTANT:
■The thickness of the overlay panel must be ¹⁄₂" (12.7 mm) to ³⁄₄" (19.05 mm).
■Do not exceed the height dimension for the overlay panel(s). Panel(s) that exceed the height dimension may damage the drawer dishwasher, cabinets or countertop.
■The width of the overlay panel(s) may vary according to the width of the cabinet opening.
