DUAL INSTALLATION

If two units are installed side by side, a dual installation kit may be required. Installations without a custom ller strip require a dual installation kit. If a dual installation kit is not specied, a 2"

(51) ller strip is recommended between units.

Dual installations without a ller strip can only be accomplished using two units with opposite hinges. Refer to the illustrations below.

Dual installation kits are available through an authorized Sub-Zero dealer. For local dealer information, visit the nd a showroom section of our website, subzero.com. For questions regarding the installation, call Sub-Zero customer care at 800-222-7820.

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

A solid panel cannot be installed over the glass door. A solid door is available through an authorized Sub-Zero dealer. For local dealer information, visit the nd a showroom section of our website, subzero.com.

HOME SECURITY CONNECTION

If the unit will be connected to a home security system, make connections to the leads shown in the illustration below. Refer to the following color codes:

• Normally open contacts—white with red stripe wire.

• Normally closed contacts—white with blue stripe wire.

• Common—gray with white stripe wire.

Use the spade terminals or wire nuts provided to make proper wiring connections.

CAUTION

The alarm circuit in the unit is intended as a lowvoltage, low-current device only. It should not be used to switch line power. Any unused terminals should be completely insulated and all wires should be secured away from conductive or moving components.

ANCHORING

To anchor, use the countertop bracket provided to secure the unit to the underside of the countertop. Refer to the illustration below. If the countertop bracket can not be utilized, install shims along the top and sides of the unit.

MODEL 427G / 427RG INSTALLATION

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

Anti-Tip Bracket

WARNING

To prevent the unit from tipping forward, the anti-tip brackets must be installed.

The two anti-tip brackets must be installed exactly 24"

(610)

from the front of the opening to the back of the brackets and a minimum of 4" opening. This depth will increase to 26 inset installation, based on

(102) from the sides of the

3

/4" (19) thick panels. Failure to

/16" (665) for a ush

properly position the anti-tip brackets will prevent proper engagement.

Use all anti-tip bracket hardware as instructed for wood or concrete oors.

IMPORTANT NOTE: For wood or concrete oor applications,

if the #12 screws do not hit a wall stud or wall plate, use the #8 screws and #12 washers with the wall anchors.

IMPORTANT NOTE: In some installations the subooring or

nished oor may necessitate angling the screws used to fasten the anti-tip brackets to the back wall.

Placement

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.

Alignment

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.
