Creating Custom Wood Panels
If you plan to install custom wood decorator panels, you will need
to create the panels yourself or consult your cabinetmaker or
carpenter. See dimensional drawings for wood panel inserts.
Flat panels:
You can create a custom flat panel a maximum of V4in. (6.35 ram)
thick to replace your decorator panels. Flat wood panels less
than V4in. (6.35 ram) thick are not recommended.
Raised panels:
A raised panel design can be created by screwing or gluing wood
panels to V4in. (6.35 ram) backing or by using 3/4in. (19.05 ram)
stock with routed edges. Raised panels should be spaced
2V4in. (5.70 cm) from the back edge of the handle to allow room
for fingers to grasp the handle.
Weight requirements for raised panel inserts:
• Refrigerator door panel should not exceed 28 Ibs
(12.7 kg).
• Freezer door panels should not exceed 21 Ibs (9.5 kg)
combined weight.

Installing Custom Wood Panels
1. Remove any packing tape.
2. Remove the refrigerator and freezer door trims from the hinge
side of each door by pulling the trim away from the bottom of
the door first,
3. Partially unscrew the two screws that hold the top trim in
place. It is not necessary to completely remove the screws.
Loosen the screws approximately V4 in. (6.35 mm) from the
trim to allow the panels to slide freely.
4. Remove the existing door panels, if panels were provided.
5. Slide custom door panels into place.
NOTE: The freezer door panels may require Vsin. (3.18 mm)
cardboard fillers behind the panels to keep them from being
loose in that area.

Replace the hinge side trims by inserting the notched end
under the top trim first.
