Handle Side Clearance
–At least 2" (51 mm) on the handle side for fingertip clearances.
Top and Bottom Clearance
–At least 3/16" (4.75 mm) at the top and bottom edges to allow for
trim flange.
Hinge Side Clearance
–The installation of 3/4" (19 mm) thick side panels requires less
clearance because the space between the door and adjacent
countertop is wider.
• To avoid door contact to countertop consider:
–Miter the corner of the adjacent countertops 45°, or
–pull the refrigerator forward enough to avoid contact.
IMPORTANT: Before finalizing specifications for your GE Profile Performance
™
CustomStyle™Refrigerator, Please NOTE:
• A minimum of 36" is required for refrigerator installation
• Be sure to allow for 1/2" or 3/4" side panels in addition to the 36" minimum

Installation Tips to Maximize
the Built-In Look
•All wall/floor moulding should be
removed prior to installation.
•Water recess on rear wall
recommended to prevent water
line damage. 48" minimum length
1/4" diameter water line tubing
recommended.
•When possible, recess both water
line and electrical outlet. (See
local codes)
•Front and rear leveling legs are
adjustable for the “Built-In” look.
(See owner’s manual)
* 22” depth applies to the refrigerator
opening, not the acctual cabinet
depth.

An enclosure is required to match up to the
trim, see Typical Installation. To obtain the most
integrated look, the cabinet or soffit above the
refrigerator should extend out to the same
depth as the side panels. The refrigerator
opening must have minimum dimensions of
70-1/4" high x 36-1/8" wide x 24-1/2" deep as
shown at right. If there is an overhead cabinet,
allow 1" for cabinet door clearance with the top
trim piece so the cabinet doors can be opened
without hitting the top trim. If 1/2" side panels
are used, then side trim and panel will be even.
If 3/4" side panels are used, then some of the
side panel will extend beyond the trim and must
be finished.
Collar Trim Installation
*The rough-in dimension of 70-1/4" is minimum
and is measured from the finished floor to
top of opening (or the underside of the
overhead cabinets).

For Models with Trim Kit: If frameless style
cabinets are planned for above the refrigerator,
you may need to consider adding a maximum
of 1/4" (70-1/2") to height of opening to allow
additional clearance between cabinet doors and
top of refrigerator trim when cabinet doors are
in open position.
