Dimensions and Installation Information (in inches)
The Installation Space
* Shipping height.
The refrigerator
can be adjusted to
fit into a cutout that
is 83-1/2" min. to
84-1/2” max. height.
Note that the top
case trim at the
front is 1/2" higher
and will overlap
upper cabinetry or
soffit. Use leveling
legs and wheels
for a maximum 1"
height adjustment.
Product Clearances
These refrigerators are equipped with a 2 position door stop.
The factory set 130° door swing can be adjusted to 90° if
clearance to adjacent cabinets or walls is restricted.
Allow minimum clearances for freezer door and fresh food
door for a full 130° door swing and to allow for pan removal.
4" minimum clearance is required when door swing is
adjusted to 90°. If the 90° door stop position is used, pan
access is maintained, but pan removal is restricted.
Installation Information: Before installing, consult
installation instructions packed with product, or online
at Monogram.com, for current dimensional data.
Water and electrical locations
The opening must be prepared with the electrical and water
supply located as shown.
The cutout depth must be 24".
The refrigerator will project forward, slightly beyond
adjacent cabinetry, depending on your installation.
The cutout depth beneath a soffit:
When installed beneath a soffit, the soffit cannot exceed the
24" installation depth shown. The top case trim overlaps the
bottom of the soffit.
Additional Specifications
• A 115 volt 60Hz., 15 or 20 amp power supply is required.
An individual properly grounded branch circuit or circuit
breaker is recommended. Install a properly grounded 3prong electrical receptacle recessed into the back wall.
Electrical must be located on rear wall as shown.
Note: GFI (ground fault interrupter) is not recommended.
• Water line can enter the opening through the floor or back
wall. The water line should be 1/4" O.D. copper tubing or
GE SmartConnect™ kit between the cold water line and
water connection location, long enough to extend to the
front of the refrigerator. Installation of an easily accessible
shut off valve in the water line is recommended.

Customization Basics: Framed or Overlay Panels, Custom Handles and Accessory Kits
Trimmed Refrigerators

Trimmed refrigerators are designed to be customized with
decorative panels. Field-installed custom door and grille
panels are required.
Framed Panels
You may install 1/4"-thick custom panels from your cabinet
manufacturer. The decorative panels slide into the factoryinstalled trim. Or, order black, white and stainless steel
accessory panels from your Monogram dealer.
Standard supplied handles shown in 1/4" panel position.
Overlay Panels
You may also choose to install custom overlay panels from
your cabinet manufacturer. This design provides a seamless
appearance which integrates smoothly with surrounding
cabinetry.
Door Handles
The supplied handles can be adjusted to accommodate both
framed or overlay panels. Custom handles of your choice,
supplied by your cabinet maker, can also be installed. If
desired, you may order ZKHSS2 Monogram stainless steel
tubular handle kit for overlay panels.
Side Panels
Side panels must be used whenever
the sides of the refrigerator will be
exposed. The 1/4" side panels will
slip into the side case trim. Secure
the panels to the refrigerator with
stick-on hook and loop fastener
strips. Order the side panels from
the cabinet manufacturer.
• Cut a notch in the top front corner
as shown to allow clearance for
corner keys in the front side trim.
Standard supplied handles shown in 3/4" overlay panel position.
