True Flush Installation
In a flush installation,
the refrigerator doors
will align evenly with the
front face of adjacent cabinet
doors. The refrigerator blends
into the surrounding cabinetry.
Monogram built-in refrigerators can be
installed flush with typical 24-3/4" deep
cabinetr y.
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.
Stainless Steel Built-In Refrigerators
3/4"
Semi-Flush Installation
These refrigerators
can also be installed
semi-flush into an enclosure
using the minimum cutout
width. The case trim creates a
frame around the opening.
Side Panels Requirements:
• 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.
• Side panel sizes vary depending on the type
of installation being made.
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.

Installation
Side panels are required whenever the sides
of the refrigerator will be exposed.
1/2" to 3/4" side panels are normally set into
place and fastened to adjacent cabinetry or to
the back wall before rolling the refrigerator
into the opening.

Therefore, the rough-in dimensions must
allow for side panel thickness. In both a flush
and semi-flush installation, the finished
dimension, (the width of the opening after
side panels are installed), must accommodate
the full width of the refrigerator.
See page 9 for side panel sizes.

NOTE: 1/2" thick side

can be any thickness. Add
side panel thickness to
outside trim width (36",

rough-in dimension. The
leading (front) edge must
be finished to match
surrounding cabinetry.
Side panels, 1/2" minimum
thickness are required when
using frameless cabinets. The
side panel acts as a spacer
between the cabinet and the case
trim and prevents interference
with cabinet door swing. The
leading (front) edge must be
finished to match surrounding
cabinetr y.

PRUDENCE
Les réfrigérateurs sont beaucoup plus lourds en
haut qu'en bas. Il faut être prudent lors des
déplacements.
These refrigerators are equipped with special
hinges that allows the door to swing out and
away from the cabinet. No clearances are
required on the sides.
When the refrigerator is installed in a corner:
•A 4" min. clearance between the case trim

•Water line should be:
–Approximately 3-1/2" from the floor on the
back wall, or 3-1/2" from the back wall on the
floor.
–At least 5" from either side of the opening.
A 115 volt, 60 Hz. 15 or 20 amp power supply
is required. An individual properly grounded
branch circuit or circuit breaker is recommended, as noted on the rating plate. The
rating plate is located on the top on the
evaporator box and is visible when grille
panel is removed.
•Locate the electrical outlet within 5" x 7"
shaded area shown. From the right side:
12-3/8" for 36" models, 18-3/8" for 42" models,
20-3/8" for 48" models
•Between 74" and 81" from the floor.
These refrigerators are supplied with a grille
panel cover sized to fit a typical 84" installation
height. If the installation height varies, order:
ZGSSW42 for 42" wide models
ZGSSW48 for 48" wide models
Important:
cord, locate the electrical outlet as shown.
These kits include 3 grille panels for 83",
83-1/2" and 84-1/2" installation heights.
