Refer to the illustrations and specifications for overall dimensions, finished rough opening dimensions and installation specifics.

Allow the door to open a minimum of 90˚ or you'll have problems removing drawers. With the door opening at 90˚, you may have to move drawers slightly to clear the door interior. Refer to the minimum door swing clearance in the specifications chart.

For corner installations, allow for a minimum 3" (76) filler so that the door can open to 90˚. If you're using raised panels, consider using a wider filler. A 90˚ door stop is available as an accessory.

When units are installed side by side, a filler strip is recommended. The width of this filler strip will vary depending on the configuration and panels you use. An anchoring kit may also be used to attach two units together. This kit is available through your Sub-Zero dealer.

Be sure to add the filler strip width to your finished rough opening dimension. In any side- by-side installation without a filler strip, add an additional 1/2" (13) to your combined numbers. This will allow for the proper width.

Refer to the full-scale illustrations at the end of this section for specifics on door openings and filler size alternatives.

If your client has chosen the stainless steel design, the unit will be shipped complete with wrapped stainless steel doors and handle hardware. You will not have to install front panels.

If your client has chosen the framed or overlay design, you will be adding front panels to give the unit the custom Sub-Zero look. The overlay design also allows you to add your own handles, or you may choose accessory handles available through your Sub-Zero dealer. Refer to pages 6–10 for detailed information on adding panels.

For Built-In models with an automatic ice maker, rough in the water supply line. Connect

a1/4" OD copper line to the house supply, being sure to use an easily accessible shut off valve between the supply and the unit.

Do not use self-piercing valves. A saddle valve kit (4200880) is available from your Sub-Zero dealer. To obtain local dealer informa- tion, visit the Locator section of our website, subzero.com.

A line filter is required when water condi- tions have a high sediment content. The ice maker operates on water pressure of 20 psi (1.4 bar) to 100 psi (6.9 bar). In some cases a reverse osmosis water filter system may not be able to maintain the minimum water pressure consistently.

The water line should be routed up through the floor within 1/2" (13) from the back wall and no higher than 3" (76) off the floor. If you have to come through the wall, make sure the water line is no more than 3" (76) from the floor.

Locate water supply within the lower shaded area shown in the installation

illustration.

Regardless of the routing, allow 3' (.9 m) of excess copper tubing to remain outside the wall or floor for easy connection to the unit.

A 115 volt, 60 Hz, 15 amp electrical supply is required. The supply circuit for this appliance must be protected by a 15 amp fuse or circuit breaker. It is recommended that a separate circuit, serving only this appliance, be provided.

All Built-In models are equipped with a 6' (1.8 m) power supply cord with a 3-prong grounding plug which must be plugged into a mating 3-prong grounding type wall receptacle. Locate electrical within the shaded area shown in the installation illustration.

You must follow all National Electrical Code regulations. In addition, be aware of local codes and ordinances when installing your service.

To prevent the unit from tipping forward and provide a stable installation, the unit must be secured in place with an anti-tip blocking kit. If there is a solid soffit above the unit with clear- ance between the unit and the soffit of 1" (25) or less, you won't need to block the unit.

For installations with clearances of more than 1" (25), you must block the unit with the anti-tip blocking kit (wood block and hardware) provided with each Built-In unit.

Refer to the Built-In Installation Instructions packed with the appliance, which provides step-by-step procedures for making sure the unit is installed properly.
