using the minimum cutout  
width. The case trim creates a  
frame around the opening.  
Side Panel Requirements:  
Monogram built-in refrigerators can be installed flush  
with typical 24-3/4" deep cabinetry.  
• Side panels are not required whenever the  
refrigerator is installed into an enclosure or between  
pantry and oven cabinets.  
• Side panels are required whenever the sides of the  
refrigerator are exposed.  
When installed semi-flush, the case trim will conceal  
slight gaps around the enclosure. The refrigerator will  
project forward approximately 3/4" beyond the front  
face of surrounding cabinetry.  
• Side panel sizes vary depending on the type of  
installation being made.  
In any installation situation, a wide range of appear-  
ance options can be accomplished through the use of  
one or more trim kits. See trim kit descriptions and  
appearance options on page 5.  
To accomplish an attractive installation, you must:  
1. Determine the need for side panels.  
2. Determine side panel thickness.  
3. Order matching side panels from the cabinet  
manufacturer. Be sure to provide the exact  
dimensions.

IMPORTANT - (Please read carefully)  
CAUTION  
Attaching the adapter ground terminal to a wall  
outlet cover screw does not ground the appliance  
unless the cover screw is metal, and not insulated,  
and the wall outlet is grounded through the house  
wiring. You should have the circuit checked by a  
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is  
properly grounded.  
FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE  
PROPERLY GROUNDED.  
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a  
three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a  
standard three-prong (grounding) wall receptacle to  
minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from  
this appliance.  
When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter,  
always hold the adapter in place with one hand and  
pulling the power cord with the other hand. If this is not  
done, the adapter ground terminal is very likely to break  
with repeated use.  
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified  
electrician to make sure the outlet is properly  
grounded.  
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it  
is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it  
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.  
Should the adapter ground terminal break, DO NOT USE  
the appliance until a proper ground has again been  
established.  
DO NOT, UNDER ANY  
CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT  
OR REMOVE THE THIRD  
(GROUND) PRONG  
Use of Extension Cords  
Because of potential safety hazards under certain  
conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of  
an extension cord. However, if you still elect to use an  
extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL  
listed 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord  
having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the  
electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes (minimum)  
and 120 volts.  
FROM THE POWER CORD.  
Use of Adapter plug  
Because of potential hazards under certain conditions,  
we strongly recommend against use of an adapter plug.  
However, if you still elect to use an adapter, where  
local codes permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION, may  
be made to a properly grounded 2-prong wall outlet by  
use of a UL listed adapter available at most hardware  
stores.  
P RUDENCE  
FICHE D’ADAPTATION  
The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with the  
larger slot in the wall outlet to provide proper polarity in  
the connection of the power cord.

NOTE: It is best to install the valve into a vertical water  
pipe. If you install the valve into a horizontal water pipe,  
make the connection at the top or side, rather than at  
the bottom, to avoid drawing off any sediment from the  
water pipe.  
Compression Nut

Drill a 1/4" hole in the water pipe.  
Ferrule  
(Sleeve)  
Fasten the shut-off valve to the pipe with pipe clamp.  
Tighten the clamp screws until the sealing washer  
begins to swell. Do not over tighten.  
• Place a compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) onto the  
end of the tubing and connect it to the shut-off valve.  
Make sure the tubing is fully inserted into the valve and  
ferrule is tightened.  
NOTE: Saddle type shut-off valves are included in  
many water supply kits. Before purchasing, make sure  
a saddle type valve complies with your local plumbing  
codes.  
NOTE: Commonwealth of Massachusetts Plumbing  
Codes 248CMR shall be adhered to. Saddle valves  
are illegal and use is not permitted in Massachusetts.  
Consult with your licensed plumber.  
Turn on the main water supply and flush debris from  
the line. Run about a quart of water through the tubing  
into a bucket. Shut off water supply at the shut-off  
valve.

Tubular Stainless Steel Handles  
S t e p 2 A:  
If you are installing these handles onto Stainless Steel  
panels:  
Align extrusion to pencil mark(s) as shown in Step 2.  
Mark each screw hole location with pencil.  
Tape extrusions to panels to prevent movement.  
• Place panel on plywood section, appearance side  
down. Be sure plywood is clean without nicks and  
burrs. Center punch at each screw hole location.  
Drill 1/8" pilot hole. Use 9/32" bit to enlarge clearance  
hole.  
Use extreme caution if you are drilling through  
stainless steel panels. Stainless panels must be  
handled gently. Do not kneel on stainless steel panels.  
It will leave a permanent dent. Do not remove protec-  
tive plastic covering until final installation.  
• Place supplied filler panel (corrugated) on floor to use  
as a pad.  
On the back side of the panel–at the handle side,  
measure and mark 1/4" below the top edge of the  
panel.  
FOR  
STAINLESS  
STEEL  
PANELS  
• Measure and cut a 2" wide strip, top to bottom off the  
corrugated panels. This will allow room for spacer  
rings between the stainless panel and extrusion.  
For models with full width dispenser trim and 2-piece  
freezer panels:  
– Measure and mark 1/4" below the top edge of the  
upper panel.  
– Measure and mark 1/4" above bottom edge of lower  
panel.  
• Slip panels into the new extrusion, flush against inner  
edge, on the handle side.  
• Place a handle standoff on each attachment post  
along the handle. Position the set screw hole on each  
standoff to point to the floor.  
• Install set screws into the bottom of each standoff,  
using the Allen wrench provided. The standoff should  
be tight against the handle.

• Screw handle to panel, starting at the top. Moving  
down the handle, drive each screw partially into the  
standoff, alternating back to the top until the handle is  
tight against the panel.  
Note: Panels have a protective plastic covering. Peel away just  
enough to allow panel to slide into trim and to clear handle  
mounting screws. The plastic covering will keep the panels clean  
during the installation process.  
• Slide the assembly into the door frame until the  
extrusion fits firmly against the steel door.  
Reinstall original screws into the door extrusion.  
• Slide panels into the door trim. Leave about 4" of the

A raised panel design secured to a 1/4" thick backing  
(screwed or glued) can be used with this handle kit.  
Cut the 1/4" thick panels to size.  
Fabricate the raised panel to allow 1-1/4" clearance  
from the hinge side to avoid striking adjacent  
cabinetry.  
Allow 5/16" clearance at the top, bottom and handle  
side edges to allow for the trim flange.  
Total thickness should not exceed 3/4".
