or Model 424, the lock is attached to the

F bottom of the metal door frame. The decorative door panel is not involved in the installation or operation of the lock. The catch portion of the lock is attached to the bottom of the appliance cabinet in pre-punched holes. When installing the lock kit, it may be helpful to tip the unit on its back for easier access.

POSITION THE UNIT

IMPORTANT NOTE:

If for any reason the Wine Storage unit has been laid on its back or side, you must allow the unit to stand upright for a minimum of 24 hours before connecting power.

Plug the power supply cord into the 15 amp grounded electrical outlet. With power applied to the appliance, check for lighting and cooling before going any further. Once you are satisfied that the unit is operating properly, shut off power to the electrical outlet at the circuit breaker and proceed.

Shut of

f the power to the electrical outlet.

If a home alarm system is to be used with the

ine Storage unit, the lead wires should be

W threaded into the compressor compartment before you position the unit. See Home Alarm Connections on page 8, for the location of these lead wires. After the unit is in position, the alarm wiring can be completed from the front.

Pre-level the Wine Storage unit before sliding it into position. Leveling cannot be completed with the unit pushed back in the installation opening.

For Model 424FS, adust the leveling legs so the top of the unit is no more than 34

/8" (879) above the floor. This is to allow the unit to engage the anti-tip bracket properly. Center the Model 424FS in front of the anti-tip bracket.

Slide the unit into position, making sure the anti-tip bracket is engaged properly.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

When the Wine Storage unit is installed, the anti-tip bracket will be positioned just below the engaging bracket on the unit. It is not necessary to raise the unit up so that it locks into the anti-tip bracket, but the unit must be in alignment with the anti-tip bracket.

The Wine Storage unit provides the best access to its contents when the front surface of the door panel extends out from surrounding cabinets appr 424FS, if ther

DOOR PANELS – MODEL 424

Model 424 is offered in two design applications; stainless steel (/S) and overlay (/O). Each

f these designs are available as a glass door

o (G) model.

The stainless steel Model 424 is available in the classic finish only and is shipped from the

actory with the decorative stainless steel door

f panel and matching handle in place.

The overlay Model 424/O is designed to accept a decorative door panel to match surrounding cabinetry. The door panel and the handle will be provided by the customer.

The solid door Model 424S—with no glass window—requires a different door panel than the glass door design.

Before beginning installation, check for the correct components for the fit and finish desired. All overlay doors require a decorative panel 23 minimum

/4" (603) by 301/16" (764) and a

/8" (16) thick.

OVERLAY DOOR PANELS

OVERLAY GLASS DOOR – MODEL 424

nspect the door panel for the minimum

/8" (16) thickness, the finished inside edge and the 10 lbs (5 kg) weight limit. See the Wine

torage section of the Sub-Zero Design Guide

S for additional panel information.

Decide if the handle will be attached through the glass door frame or just through the decorative door panel. If it is just through the door panel, the handle must be attached first.

Decorative panels are attached to the Model 424 door using #8 x

/8" square drive screws passing through the door frame from the rear, behind the gasket into the panel. The door panel is marked for screw locations by the use of ‘tenon centers’, which are temporarily

inserted into the

/4" (6) diameter holes in the front of the glass door frame. Refer to illustration 9 on page 11.

With the Wine Storage unit secured in position and the door closed, the panel is held in the desired position on the door and rapped by hand from the front, putting center marks on the rear surface of the panel. If the door panel is made of such a material that pre-drilling is needed, all of the mounting holes should be marked. If not, only enough holes to hold the panel in place temporarily, are necessary.

The door panel is then lowered from the door frame, tenon centers removed, the door opened and the screws driven into the panel through the black tape on the door frame, using the center marks to locate the screws.

The screw holes inside the door ar

e hidden under a cover flap on the door gasket. It is necessary to lift the flap to insert the screws. Use as many scr

ews as necessar

y to hold the

door panel in place properly.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

After the first three or

four mounting screws are in place, but not

ompletely tightened, close the door and check

c your panel fit. This is the time to make small adjustments. Once you are satisfied with the

ppearance, open the door and apply the

a remainder of the screws. Check all screws for tightness.

The metal frame on the glass door has numerous mounting holes on each side of the door. This is to accommodate the Sub-Zero accessory handles and provide for easy attachment of the handle through the door frame.

If you choose not to use the pre-drilled handle mounting holes, it will be necessary to fasten the handle from the rear of the door panel only, or drill one or more additional holes through the metal frame of the glass door.

Illustration 10 on page 11 shows how this hole passes through the door frame. The hole center is on the small locator groove in the front of the frame. A

/4" (6) diameter hole is

made in the front wall of the extrusion and a

/32" (11) diameter hole through the rest of the

frame.

The wine storage unit door is made with a sealed double wall tempered glass core. The drill must not contact this core when drilling. Be sur the small groove in the front of the door frame and the drill passes squarely through the frame. If you are inexperienced with drilling, fasten the handle from

ear of the door panel only.
