Illustration 8 shows how you can box out a
landing space for the bezel using stiles and rails
to create this space. Again, keep in mind, that
the total thickness of the panel at this level must
not exceed 29 mm.
OVERLAY PANEL GRILLE
Overlay grille panels for the panel grille match
the design of the door panels. Overlay units,
except Models I601R, I601RG and I601F, come
standard with an 279 mm panel grille. Optional
grilles are available in 25 mm height increments
from 254 mm to 381 mm. Overlay grille panel
specifications for the panel grille are listed on
page 23. Also refer to illustration 4 on page 19
for additional overlay panel dimensions.
Do not exceed the panel dimensions listed
for the appropriate overlay grille panel you
are specifying. The decorative panel cannot
be any larger or it may restrict the airflow
to the compressor area and cause problems
with the operation of the Sub-Zero unit.
OVERLAY DOOR PANELS
For glass door Models I601RG, I611G and I650G,
the refrigerator door panel must include a cut-
out to accommodate the window. Refer to the
Overlay Panel Specifications for Models I601RG,
I611G and I650G on page 22.
IMPORTANT NOTE: On glass door models, the
glass portion of the door must be exposed and
not covered by any part of the panel.
For Models I685 and I695, the refrigerator door
panel must include a cut-out to accommodate
the glasswell and bezel. The thickness of the
panel in this area can range from 6 mm to a
maximum of 29 mm.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Regardless of the thickness
of the overlay panel for Model I685 or I695, you
must plan for a flat ’landing’ space for the
decorative bezel surrounding the glasswell area.
Refer to page 23 for exact cut-out dimensions of
the glasswell area in the overlay, spacer and
backer panels. This ’landing’ area can be accom-
plished in a number of different ways. We are
showing two in Illustrations 7 and 8 below.
Illustration 7 shows how you can recess the
bezel to the inset panel. You must rout out a
space to accommodate the 327 mm height of
the bezel. Also keep in mind that the amount of
material you will rout out of the stile will vary
because of the thickness of this element.
However, the width of the stile immediately
adjacent to the bezel must be 37 mm. DO NOT
cut the entire stile to this dimension. In this illus-
tration you can see that rails above and below
the bezel give this a finished look. Make sure
that the bezel is not supporting weight from
the panel.
