Overlay models come without handle hardware. The beauty of this design is that you can match the surrounding cabinet hardware. You or the cabinet manufacturer must provide handle hardware to match the overall decorating scheme.

The handle hardware must be installed before installing the panel assembly. Use larger D-style handles. If screws with thick heads are used, the screws will need to be countersunk into the door before the panel is put into place.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Sub-Zero does not recom- mend using single pull knobs on any of its Built- In models.

For overlay Models I685 and I695, mounting placement of the refrigerator door handle must assure proper access to the glasswell and adequate clearance under the handle. Illustration 8 shows placement of the refrigerator door handle in relationship to the glasswell bezel on stainless steel models.

Optional stainless steel handles are available in a variety of diameters and lengths, as are handles to match the color and style of Wolf ovens.

Contact your Sub-Zero dealer for specifics.

Refer to the full-scale illustrations at the end of this section for handle hardware considerations.

Side panels can be used with the overlay and stainless steel design applications. When planning for side panels with the installation of a Built-In model, you need to be aware of space configuration to achieve a pleasing fit. Depend- ing on the exact panel you are using with your unit, the height of the panel will vary.

Cut-outs around the toe kick and grille area are required if a 6 mm thick panel will be inserted into the main frame channel. The panel will need to be 610 mm deep. If a 10 mm thick panel is used, the panel will abut the main frame and should be 606 mm deep. Refer to illustrations 9–11 below for placement of toe kick and grille area cut-outs for your specific model. These dimensions do not apply to Models ICB648PRO and ICB648PROG.

The toe kick area may or may not be cut out depending on the look you want to achieve.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The use of side panels may change the width of your rough opening.

Sub-Zero specifications

Sub-Zero is synonymous with luxury refrigeration, renowned for its high-quality products that combine aesthetics, functionality, and innovative technology. Founded in 1945, the brand has carved a niche for itself as a pioneer in the refrigeration and preservation of food. Their commitment to exceptional performance and durability has established Sub-Zero as a favored choice for both culinary enthusiasts and professional chefs.

One of the standout features of Sub-Zero refrigeration units is their dual refrigeration system. Unlike traditional models that use a single cooling system for both the refrigerator and freezer compartments, Sub-Zero’s design employs two independent systems. This not only optimizes temperature control for each compartment but also maintains optimal humidity levels, which is essential for preserving the freshness of food longer.

Another defining characteristic of Sub-Zero models is their advanced air purification system. Incorporating NASA-inspired technology, the air purification system utilizes a combination of UV light and a carbon filter to eliminate airborne bacteria and mold. This feature ensures that the refrigerator environment remains pristine, significantly extending the lifespan of produce and other perishables.

Moreover, Sub-Zero appliances come with customizable interior shelving and storage options. Users can configure the layout to maximize space efficiency, accommodating items of various sizes. The adjustable shelves and bins are designed to be both functional and visually appealing, ensuring that organization within the unit is seamless.

Energy efficiency is also a hallmark of Sub-Zero’s commitment to sustainability. Many models are ENERGY STAR certified, reflecting the use of materials and technology designed to minimize energy consumption while still providing powerful performance.

In addition, Sub-Zero offers a range of style options, including integrated and built-in designs that fit seamlessly into any kitchen aesthetic. With customizable paneling options, Sub-Zero appliances can blend with cabinetry, creating a cohesive look that enhances the overall elegance of the space.

Overall, Sub-Zero’s dedication to quality, performance, and design innovation sets it apart in the competitive world of refrigeration. With features that prioritize food preservation, user convenience, and energy efficiency, Sub-Zero remains a top choice for those seeking the ultimate in luxury kitchen appliances.
