Stainless door panels, handles and frames can discolor when
exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, salt water or cleaners
with bleach.
•
Keep your Stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a good
quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner/polish on a monthly
basis. For best results use Claire Stainless Steel Polish and
Cleaner, which can be purchased from U-Line Corporation
(Part numbers 173348).
•
•
Do not clean with steel wool or abrasive pads.
Do not use cleaners that are not specifically intended
for stainless steel on stainless surfaces (this includes
glass, tile and counter cleaners).
•
If any surface discolors or rust appears, clean it quickly with
Bon-Ami or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser and a non-abrasive
cloth. Always clean in the direction of the grain. Always finish
this process with Claire Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner or
comparable product to prevent further problems.
U-2175RCGOL-00
CAUTION
!
Rust that is allowed to linger can penetrate into the
surface of the stainless steel and complete removal of the
rust may not be possible.

grounded branch circuit or circuit breaker is recommended. GFCI
(ground fault circuit interrupter) is usually not required for fixed
location appliances and is not recommended for your unit because
a GFCI could be prone to nuisance tripping. However, be sure to
consult your local codes.

Wood Trim Finishing
NOTICE
DO NOT use oil-based stains on wood trim. Vapors from
oil-based stains will permanently penetrate the liner and
will not dissipate over time.
CAUTION
!
To prevent permanent damage to the inner liner of the
unit, the wire rack wood trim MUST be removed from the
unit for staining and/or finishing. Allow stain/finish to dry
thoroughly (at least 24 hours) in accordance with the
stain/finish manufacturer’s instructions, prior to re-
installing the wood trim inside the cabinet of the unit.
Failure to do so may cause the inner liner of the unit to
have a permanent odor, which is not covered by the
warranty.
1. Remove all screws securing wood trim to interior parts, and
remove the trim from the cabinet interior.
2. Lightly sand and clean wood.
®
3. Apply Minwax Water-Based Wood Stain to wood with a
synthetic bristle brush or a foam applicator. Allow stain to
penetrate about three minutes. Before the stain is dry, take a
stain dampened rag and remove any excess stain remaining.
Wipe towards the grain with medium pressure to achieve the
desired stain color.
NOTICE
• Your model may contain an electronic display panel in
the lowest level trim piece. After removing the trim
screws and gently pulling the trim from its location, a
wiring harness connector will become visible. Unplug
the connector and remove the trim from the interior.
4. After two hours, repeat step 2. This will even out the color of
the wood.
5. Allow stain to dry for a minimum of three hours before applying
the final finish.
• Glass in door is tinted. Stain may look darker when door
is closed.
6. If desired, sand the wood with very fine sandpaper to smooth
the surface after staining.

grain. Apply the finish to the back and sides of the wood first,
and allow it to dry for two hours. Apply the finish to the front
side of the wood next, and allow it to dry for two hours. Sand
with very fine 220 grit sandpaper. Apply two morel coats of
finish in the same manner, but do not sand the trim after applying
the final third coat.
3. Press the left rack release lever (see above) down, and at the
same time, lift the corresponding right rack release lever up, and
pull the rack out until it is free of the tracks and the cabinet.
4. Do not remove the track side rails from the cabinet.
8. Allow the final coat to dry for 24 hours before reinstalling the
trim to the cabinet interior parts.

label directions.
1. Align the left and right rack channels with the tracks in the
cabinet, and ensuring an even track engagement on both sides,
gently push the rack into the cabinet until it stops.
5. Lightly sand and reapply if desired.
Allow the final coat to dry for 24 hours before reinstalling the trim

Prepare the New Overlay Panel
NOTICE
The overlay door panel must not weigh more than 20 lbs.
The thickness of the door panel must be 3/4".
1. Place a towel, or similar, soft non-marking material out on a flat
clean surface. Be sure the material is large enough to have the
wood panel not touch the hard mating surface.
2. Lay the wood panel out with the front side of the wood facing
down.
3. Cut the foam tape in to four pieces, two pieces the width of the
overlay and two pieces the height of the overlay.
4. Remove adhesive protection strip from one piece of the cut
foam and align the edge of the foam tape to the inside edge of
the overlay as shown, adhering the foam tape to the overlay. See
below.
2. Carefully lay the door over the wood panel, making sure door is
oriented correctly (top of door with top of wood overlay).
3. Pull door gasket out of the groove completely. Start in the
middle and pull outward, moving towards the corners (see
below). This may take some force, but be careful not to cut or
rip the gasket.
5. Trim each piece of tape immediately after applying it to the
overlay. Do not allow any overlapping of the foam tape. Damage
to the overlay can occur is the foam tape is not trimmed
correctly.
6. If required, attach any optional cabinet hardware to the wood
panel at this time. If an optional cabinet handle is installed, make
sure the mounting screw heads are below (countersunk) the
back surface of the overlay.
4. After the gasket has been removed, place it on a clean, flat
surface.
5. Secure the door to the back of the wood overlay using tape on
all four corners. Make sure all four edges are aligned. (See figure
on next page)
Note: After attaching the optional cabinet hardware, additional
supports may be needed to keep panel flat for next steps.
Attaching the Overlay Panel
1. Remove the top hinge pivot pin with a Phillips screwdriver and
lift the door off bottom hinge pin. Be careful not to lose the
door closer insert sets. Save pivot pin for use later. See figure
in next column.

10. Position door over closer. Be sure the door hinge plate holes
align with the bosses on the closer (see below). Failure to do so
will result in the door not sitting in the proper position and door
will not align correctly. (Sometimes it is helpful to open the door
180° to have the closer and pivot align correctly.)
11. Holding the door in the closed position, install the pivot post
through the top hinge into the top pivot plate. Tighten securely
with a Phillips screwdriver, making sure post is seated fully.
12. Adjusting the door as needed.
Depending on installation
bottom of overlay may NOT
align with bottom of door
7. Attach the door to the overlay using #6x1" wood screws.
NOTICE
If you decide to drill pilot holes, remove the wood overlay
from the door, and do not use a drill larger than 7/64". Be
sure not to drill deeper than 3/8". The door frame and
wood overlay must be aligned properly or the door will
not operate correctly.
Note: After attaching the wood to the door, double check the
bottom pivot hole location. If the hole in the pivot bracket is
covered by any wood, chase through the hole with a 11/32" drill to
open hole in door panel. DO NOT drill deeper than 1/4".

Leveling Information
2. Gently push the unit into position. Be careful not to kink the
water supply line or entangle the electrical cord.
It is recommended that the unit is level.
3. Re-check the leveling, from front to back and side to side. Make
any necessary adjustments. The unit’s top surface should be
approximately 1/8" below the countertop.
13. Use a level to check
the levelness of the
unit from front to
back and from side
to side. Level should
be placed along top
edge and side edge
as shown.
4. Remove the tape from the glass shelves and wipe out the inside
of the unit with a clean, water-dampened cloth.

Installation Troubleshooting
Problem
INSTALLATION TIP
Q:
The door remains open unless it is pushed closed.
If the room floor is higher than the floor in the cut-out opening,
adjust the rear feet to achieve a total unit rear height of 1/8" less
than the opening’s rear height. Shorten the unit height in the front
by adjusting the front feet. This allows the unit to be gently tipped
into the opening. Readjust the front feet to level the unit after it is
correctly positioned in the opening.
Solution
A:
The hinges should be self-closing when the door is open
approximately 8". If this is not the case, make sure the closers are
clean, greased and installed correctly. Also, re-check leveling from
front to back of the unit and readjust if necessary. Make sure that
pivot plate is installed correctly.
Problem
Q:
The custom overlay door was designed to align with the rest of the
cabinet doors, but the unit has crept forward.
Solution
A:
Make sure that the electrical cord and water supply line are not
obstructing the installation.
