Introducing New Built-In Refrigeration. Beginning in Fall, 2008, you will have a new line of built-in refrigeration

to offer your clients. We have re-engineered—exterior and interior —our built-in product line to offer you the best in design options, and your clients the best in food preservation. The 600 series as you understand it now will be gone and the new offering will take its place. We will have new panel sizes, model numbers and many new features. Review this design guide for general specification information and keep coming back to the trade section of our website, subzerotrade.com, for new information during the coming months.

Model Numbers. The cross-reference chart below

provides a listing of the new built-in model numbers and the existing 600 series model numbers they are replacing.

Built-In Design Options. A design classic is now even better. Four distinct design approaches provide limitless

flexibility for creating a beautiful kitchen. New lower profile hinges enable the new built-in units to merge more seamlessly with surrounding cabinetry. Three handle options coordinate with Wolf cooking products.

Framed. Custom cabinetry

panels slide into the framed door to blend into the kitchen design. The framed design comes with a standard louvered grille and extruded handles.

Overlay. Custom cabinet

overlay panels can be combined with unique hardware for design flexibility. Shown with curved handle option to compliment Wolf E Series ovens.

Built-In Design Options 5

Flush Inset. This brand new

design option allows for a flush door and grille. Classic, platinum and carbon stainless steel panels are available as sales accessories. Shown with tubular handle option to mirror Wolf L Series ovens.

Stainless Steel. For a

professional look, classic stainless is standard and requires no customization. To compliment the look of Wolf ranges, choose the Pro handle option shown here.

electrical supply should be located within the shaded area shown in the illustration. Follow the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances when installing the receptacle. A separate circuit, servicing only this appliance is required.

IMPORTANT NOTE: A ground fault circuit interrupter

(GFCI) is not recommended and may cause interruption of operation.

Plumbing Requirements. All built-in models with an

automatic ice maker come with a microbiological water filtration system. The water supply line should be located within the shaded area shown in the illustration. The water supply line should be connected to the house supply with an easily accessible shut-off valve between the supply and the unit. Do not use self-piercing valves. A saddle valve kit (4200880) is available from your Sub-Zero dealer. The water line must not interfere with installation of the anti-tip brackets.

IMPORTANT NOTE: A reverse osmosis system can be

used provided there is constant water pressure of 30 psi (2.1 bar) to 100 psi (6.9 bar) supplied to the unit at all times. In this application, the microbiological water filtration system should be set to bypass mode by removing the water filter cartridge and inserting the bypass plug (7005018) available from your Sub-Zero dealer. Installation instructions packed with the unit will outline this procedure.

Framed Panels. If you and your client have ordered a

framed model, you will be adding panels to give the unit the traditional Sub-Zero look. The framed panel design option is available for all built-in framed models. For exact door panel dimensions for built-in framed models, refer to framed panel specifications on the following pages. Also refer to the full-scale templates at the end of this guide for additional panel and handle considerations.

The traditional framed models come with an elegant, smooth, full-length handle. Optional extended full-length handles that provide additional finger clearance for raised panels are available through your Sub-Zero dealer.

Custom cabinetry panels slide into the framed door to blend into the kitchen design. The framed design comes with a standard louvered grille and extruded handles.
