Before you begin the installation, please follow these important steps:

• Read the installation instructions completely and carefully.

• Save these instructions for the local inspector’s use.

• Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

• Note to Installer: Be sure to leave these instructions with the Consumer.

• Note to Consumer: Keep these instructions with your Owner’s Manual for future reference.

WARNING: Disconnect electrical power supply to icemaker before installing front panel. Do not operate icemaker while installing panel. Failure to do so can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

The dimensions for the custom panel are 14-23/32″ wide and 29-1/2″ high. Please note the following important requirements:

• Cut edges of the custom door panel will be seen and must be finished for best appearance. The back side of the panel should be finished a minimum of 1/2″ on all sides.

• The custom panel, both raised and flat design, should be constructed in the same manner as typical cabinet doors.

• Order the custom panel from the cabinet manufacturer. Be sure to provide the exact dimensions so that the panel is constructed accurately.

If installing a 3/4″ trimless custom panel, a 1-1/2″ wide filler strip may be required. The filler strip will act as a spacer between the icemaker case and the adjacent cabinet, and will prevent interference with the icemaker door swing when it is installed between frameless or framed cabinetry. The width of the cutout opening must include the width of the filler strip. The product cannot be installed flush to adjacent 24″ deep cabinets with a 3/4″ thick custom panel.

• 8 side trim screws

• Door handle

Tools and Materials Required:

• 8 flat head wood screws, 1/2″ long

• Drill and 1/8″ bit

STEP 1: DISCONNECT POWER TO THE ICE MACHINE

STEP 2: REMOVE HANDLE AND NAMEPLATE

• Remove the door handle by removing the two top mounting screws. Set screws aside. Discard the original handle.

• The Monogram nameplate is held in place with adhesive. Remove the nameplate.

STEP 3: MARK MOUNTING SCREW LOCATIONS

• Align and hold the side trim pieces against the icemaker door and mark screw locations on the sides.

• Drill 1/8″ pilot holes into the door sides of the icemaker.

This step should be skipped if you are using the handle supplied with the kit. A custom handle can be installed onto the 3/4″ thick panel to replace the supplied handle.

• The custom handle can be installed at the top or side of the panel.

• Drill pilot holes through the front of the custom panel to match the chosen handle.

• Secure the handle to the panel with flat head wood screws.

• Replace original handle screws in the top of the door frame.

Follow these steps to secure the side trim pieces:

• Lay the custom panel appearance-side-down on a clean surface.

• Align top and bottom side trim to the custom panel sides.

• Tape the side trim pieces to the back of the custom panel.

• Place the panel with trim against the door to be sure that trim and panel fits the door side to side and top to bottom. Adjust as needed.

• Mark screw locations and remove trim. Drill pilot holes.

• Install side trim to the back side of the custom panel with screws (not supplied). Use flat head wood screws approximately 1/2″ long.

To install the assembled panel onto the ice machine, install the panel to the icemaker with the supplied screws, using four on each side.

If you are using the handle supplied with the kit, install the new supplied handle with the original screws that were set aside in Step 2.
