Custom Panel
MODEL 424G
For overlay applications, a custom door panel must be
installed. Panel size is critical for a proper t. To verify panel
requirements and dimensions, refer to the Sub-Zero design
guide at subzero.com/specs.
Finish all sides of the custom panel. They may be visible
when the door is open or through the glass door.
The custom overlay door panel is attached using screws
provided, through the door frame. Screw locations are
marked on the back of the custom panel using tenon centers inserted into holes of the door frame.
With the unit secured and door closed, hold the custom
panel in desired position on the door. Lightly tap the front
of the panel to locate mounting positions. Remove tenon
centers. Refer to the illustration below.
The door frame has mounting holes to accommodate
Sub-Zero accessory handles. If handle mounting holes are
not utilized, the handle should be attached to the custom
panel prior to mounting. Screw heads may need to be countersunk into the panel for proper alignment.
To mount the custom panel, open the door and use predrilled holes to position the panel. Drive screws into the
panel through black tape on the door frame. Screw holes
are hidden behind the door gasket. Use as many screws as
necessary to secure the custom panel. Refer to the illustration below.
Adjustments can be made to the custom panel with a few
mounting screws in place, but not fully tightened. Once the
proper position is achieved, install and secure all screws.
Cover holes on the inside of the door frame with the cover
patches or plugs provided.
CAUTION

Panel Installation
The custom overlay door panel is attached using screws
provided through the door frame. Screw locations are
marked on the back of the custom panel using tenon centers inserted into holes of the door frame.
With the unit secured and door closed, hold the custom
panel in desired position on the door. Lightly tap the front
of the panel to locate mounting positions. Remove tenon
centers. Refer to the illustration below.
The door frame has mounting holes to accommodate
Sub-Zero accessory handles. If handle mounting holes are
not utilized, the handle should be attached to the custom
panel prior to mounting. Screw heads may need to be countersunk into the panel for proper alignment.
To mount the custom panel, open the door and use predrilled holes to position the panel. Drive screws into the
panel through black tape on the door frame. Screw holes
are hidden behind the door gasket. Use as many screws as
necessary to secure the custom panel. Refer to the illustration below.
Adjustments can be made to the custom panel with a few
mounting screws in place, but not fully tightened. Once the
proper position is achieved, install and secure all screws.
Cover holes on the inside of the door frame with the cover
patches or plugs provided.
DRAWER PANELS (MODEL 427RG)
Remove the mounting hardware attached to the front of the
unit and set aside. Place the panel face down on a protected work surface.
Position the top edge of the template ush with the top
edge of the panel. Depending on the height and thickness of
the lower drawer panel, the bracket may need to be inverted
for proper placement. Mark and drill pilot holes, then secure
1
brackets to panel using the #8 x
/2" screws provided. Refer
to the illustration below.
To help with placement of drawer panels, examine the lower
L-bracket and panel to determine the slotted holes on the
bracket that will be used. Then position screws into the
lower portion of the drawer that correspond with these slots.
Leave the screws out slightly so the slotted holes will slide
under the heads.
Install the panel by engaging the tabbed bracket to the top
of the drawer, then rotate the panel until the lower bracket
is properly positioned below the drawer. The panel can be

CAUTION
Before moving the unit into position, secure the door
closed and protect any nished ooring.
Use an appliance dolly to move the unit near the opening.
If the unit has been on its back or side, it must stand upright
for a minimum of 24 hours before connecting power.
If the unit will be connected to a home security system, run
lead wires through the compressor compartment prior to
positioning the unit. Refer to page 30. Once the unit is in
position, wiring connection can be completed from the front.
Plug the power cord into the grounded outlet, then roll the
unit into position. Verify the anti-tip brackets are properly
engaged.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If used, side panels will need to be
installed before the unit is placed in its nal position. Refer
to page 27.

LEVELING
Once the unit is in position, turn the front leveling legs
clockwise to adjust the height. The rear height adjustment
can be made from the front of the roller base. Using a
3
socket, turn the
/8" hex bolt clockwise to raise the unit or
counterclockwise to lower. Use the lowest torque setting
when using a power drill. Do not turn the rear leveling legs
by hand. Refer to the illustration below.
When the unit is properly leveled, door adjustments are less
likely to be necessary.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Level the unit to the oor, not sur-
rounding cabinetry. This could affect the operation of the
unit, such as door closing.
WARNING
To reduce the possibility of the unit tipping forward, the
front leveling legs must be in contact with the oor.
