Environmental Requirements
This model is intended for indoor/interior applications only
and is not to be used in installations that are open/
exposed to natural elements.
This unit is designed to operate between 50°F (10°C) and
90°F (32°C). Higher ambient temperatures may reduce
the unit’s ability to reach low temperatures and/or reduce
ice production on applicable models.
For best performance, keep the unit out of direct sunlight
and away from heat generating equipment.
In climates where high humidity and dew points are
present, condensation may appear on outside surfaces.
This is considered normal. The condensation will
evaporate when the humidity drops.

grounded (three-prong), polarized receptacle
that has been placed by a qualified electrician.
The unit requires a grounded and polarized 230 VAC,
50 Hz, 8A power supply (normal household current). An
individual, properly grounded branch circuit or circuit
breaker is recommended. A GFCI (ground fault circuit
interrupter) is usually not required for fixed location
appliances and is not recommended for your unit because
it could be prone to nuisance tripping. However, be sure
to consult your local codes.
See CUTOUT DIMENSIONS for recommended receptacle

Never use an extension cord to connect power to
the unit.
Always keep your working area dry.
If the detachable type electric supply cord is damaged, it

NOT be obstructed.
The Modular 3000 Series units are engineered with a
variety of adjustment features to help ensure a seamless
installation. Adjustable doors, leveling legs and grille will
assist in fine tuning the installation.
All 3000 Series models fully integrate into overlay/face
frame, inset or European/frameless cabinet styles.

SIDE MOUNT
Side mount position is used when you are unable to mount
the brackets to the underside of your countertop.
For ease of installation the anti-tip brackets are
pre-installed in the top mount position.
1. Completely slide the unit into its position in the
opening. Be certain unit height is properly adjusted.
(See GENERAL INSTALLATION).
2. Open both doors completely. Make certain doors clear
surrounding cabinetry.
3. Using a 3/32" (2.50 mm) drill bit, drill 6 pilot holes
(3 for each bracket) 5/8" (16 mm) deep into bottom of
countertop. Use the anti-tip brackets as a template.
4. Install 6 #8x5/8" screws into the plate using a #2
Phillips head screwdriver.
1. Remove the pre-installed anti-tip brackets from the top
mount position and align to the side mounting holes on
the hinge side of your model as shown.
2. Reinstall 2 screws into each anti-tip bracket, mounting
the bracket to your unit.
3. Completely slide the unit into its position in the
opening. Be certain unit height is properly adjusted.
(See GENERAL INSTALLATION).
4. Open both doors completely to gain access to the anti-

General Installation
1. Use a level to confirm
the unit is level. Level
should be placed along
top edge and side
edge as shown.
2. If the unit is not level,
remove grille and
adjust legs as
necessary. Use
included tool to adjust the height of the rear legs.
INSTALLATION
1. Plug in the power/electrical cord.
2. Gently push the unit into position. Be careful not to
entangle the cord.
3. Re-check the leveling, from front to back and side to
side. Make any necessary adjustments. The unit’s top
surface should be approximately 1/8" (3 mm) below
the countertop.
4. Install the anti-tip bracket.
5. Remove the interior packing material and wipe out the
inside of the unit with a clean, water-dampened cloth.
3. Confirm the unit is level after each adjustment and
repeat the previous steps until the unit is level.
INSTALLATION TIP
If the room floor is higher than the floor in the cutout
opening, adjust the rear legs to achieve a total unit rear
height of 1/8" (3 mm) less than the opening’s rear height.
Shorten the unit height in the front by adjusting the front
legs. This allows the unit to be gently tipped into the
opening. Adjust the front legs to level the unit after it is
correctly positioned in the opening.

2. Optional: Stain or finish panel to desired stain or color.
Be sure to closely follow the instructions provided by

HANDLELESS INTEGRATED FRAME
The following procedure is designed to provide a finished,
handleless frame for an 18" (450 mm) door that
seamlessly integrates with its surrounding cabinetry.
Prepare two 18" (450 mm) panels for 36" (900 mm) units.
NOTE: Many cabinet manufacturers provide a ready
solution for a handleless, integrated design that can be
easily applied to your U-Line 3000 Series model. Consult
your cabinet manufacturer for applicable design and
installation details. The cabinet manufacturer’s solution to
this design and integration detail will often result in an
integrated frame solution wherein the size of the panel/
frame may result in a height dimension taller than what
we specify. This can be achieved provided the additional
height is positioned above the appliance door.
The integrated frame aligns with the
surrounding cabinetry and, due to differences in
cabinetry, may not align perfectly with the door.
3. Prepare the insert(s) that will back up the handleless
design. Wooden Insert – Cut 1/8" (3 mm) thick
wooden insert(s) to the appropriate dimensions below.
Wooden insert width Wooden insert height
17-1/2" (445 mm) 3-1/2" (89 mm)
The appliance will need up to 34-1/2" (876 mm)

the Top Detail drawing, on the next page.
4. Optional: Stain or finish frame and wooden insert to
desired stain or color. Be sure to closely follow the
instructions provided by the manufacturer.
If finishing panel or wooden insert, all sides
must be finished to prevent warping.
5. Attach the insert to the frame. Wood glue or equivalent

Dimensions
The 3000 series grille (plinth strip/base fascia) is fully
adjustable and can be set to match your surrounding
furniture dimensions. In addition to it’s adjustability, an
integrated grille may also be installed to truly provide a
seamless appearance.
PREPARE AND INSTALL INTEGRATED GRILLE
(PLINTH STRIP/BASE FASCIA)
1. Use the dimensions provided in the diagram to cut and
shape your integrated grille (plinth strip/base fascia)
panel. Recommended panel thickness is between 1/4"
(6 mm) and 3/8" (9 mm). Height will vary from 3-5/16"
(84 mm) to 4-5/16" (110 mm) based on your grille
(plinth strip/base fascia) height.
2. Finish or stain your grille (plinth strip/base fascia)
panel to match your surrounding furniture. Finish
front, back and edges to prevent warping. Carefully
follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for finish
application and cure times.
INTEGRATED GRILLE (PLINTH STRIP/BASE
FASCIA) DIMENSIONS
3. Apply double sided tape to the backside of the
integrated grill (plinth strip/base fascia). Use the
diagram below for reference. U-Line recommends
3M
™ VHB™ tape, a high strength bonding tape.
4. Remove backing paper from double sided tape.
5. Carefully align grille (plinth strip/base fascia) over
integrated panel and press into position.

6. Secure integrated
panel to door using
clamps. A robust
tape may also be
used. U-Line
recommends the
use of bar clamps
to secure the panel
to the door. If using
tape, be certain the
tape will not
damage panel finish
upon removal.
7. Using a 7/64"
(3 mm) drill bit, drill
6 pilot holes into
the wood panel 1/2"
(12 mm) deep using
the holes in the
door frame as a
guide.
Due to differences in floor construction or
surrounding cabinetry, the panel may not sit
flush with the top of the door.
It is important to ensure that all drilled holes are
drilled to the correct depth in order to avoid
splits in the wood when hardwood is installed.
8. Locate 6 of the #6x 1-1/2" (38 mm) screws provided
with your unit.
9. Using a Phillips screwdriver, place one screw into each
of the 6 pilot holes and screw down. Do not overtighten
screws.
