Normal Sounds
Your new refrigerator drawers may make sounds that your old
refrigerator drawers didn’t. Because the sounds are new to
you, you might be concerned about them. Most of the new
sounds are normal. Hard surfaces, such as the fl oor, walls, and
cabinets, can make the sounds seem louder. The following
describes the kinds of sounds and what may be making them.
Your refrigerator drawers are designed to run more effi ciently
to keep your food items at the desired temperatures and to
minimize energy usage. The high effi ciency compressor and
fans may cause your refrigerator drawers to run longer than
your old ones. You may also hear a pulsating or high-pitched
sound from the compressor or fans adjusting to optimize
performance.
You may hear the evaporator fan motor circulating air through
the refrigerator drawers. The fan speed may increase as you
open the drawers or add warm food.
As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to
the refrigerant fl owing through the sealed system tubing.
Ensuring Proper Air Circulation
In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need to permit
airfl ow inside the drawers.
Do not block any airfl ow vents. If the vents are blocked, airfl ow
will be obstructed and temperature and moisture problems
may occur.
IMPORTANT:
To avoid odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover
foods tightly.

REFRIGERATOR DRAWERS USE
Install Custom Overlay Panel
IMPORTANT:
Create a custom overlay panel according to the
specifi cations in “Custom Overlay Drawer Panels.”
KitchenAid is not responsible for the removal or addition of
molding or decorative panels that would not allow access to
the refrigerator for service.
Attach the overlay panel:
NOTE: If the custom panel is incorrectly placed, the panel
may interfere with optimal use of the drawers.
1. Attach the custom handle of your preference on the overlay
before attaching the overlay to the drawer of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Custom handles may vary in dimensions.
Holes must be made on the panel according the specific
dimensions of your handle.
2. Gently pull back the gasket from the corners of the door.
It is not necessary to remove the gasket.
3. Use the brackets (four per drawer, one in each corner of
the drawers).
4. Align the panel to the drawer and position the overlay
panel 5/64” (2 mm) higher than the door.
5. Using the self-tap wood screws (four per drawer; one in
each corner of the drawers), attach the panel to the drawer.
6. Once the overlay is securely attached to the drawer with the
four screws, put the gasket back in its place by pressing it
against the door until the gasket is even and firmly secured.
Complete Installation
1. Remove all boxes, parts packages and packing materials
from the interior of the refrigerator drawers.
2. Remove the film.
3. Clean the refrigerator drawers before use.
4. The controls are preset at the factory to the recommended
settings. Be sure that the compressor is operating properly
and that all the lights are working.
5. If construction will continue after the refrigerator drawers
have been installed, turn OFF the power for both drawers.
To get the most efficient use from your new refrigerator
drawers, read the “Refrigerator Drawers Use” section.
Contraction and expansion of the inside walls may cause a
popping noise.
You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the
condenser fan.
You may hear water running into the drain pan during the Off
cycle.
