A decorative panel is attached to the Model
315W door using #8 x
5
/
8
" (16) square drive
screws passing through the door frame from
the rear, behind the gasket into the panel. The
door panel is marked for screw locations by
the use of 'tenon centers', which are temporar-
ily inserted into the
1
/
4
" (6) diameter holes in
the front of the glass door frame. Refer to the
illustration below.
With the unit secured in position and the door
closed, the panel is held in the desired position
on the door and rapped by hand from the
front, putting center marks on the rear surface
of the panel. If the door panel is made of such
a material that pre-drilling is needed, all of the
mounting holes should be marked. If not, only
enough holes to hold the panel in place
temporarily are necessary.
The door panel is then removed from the door
frame, tenon centers removed, the door
opened and the screws driven into the panel
through the black tape on the door frame,
using the center marks to locate the screws.
The screw holes inside the door, are hidden
under a cover flap on the door gasket. It is
necessary to lift the flap to insert the screws.
Use as many screws as necessary to hold door
panel in place properly.

IMPORTANT NOTE: After the first three or
four mounting screws are in place, but not
completely tightened, close the door and check
your panel fit. This is the time to make small
adjustments. Once you are satisfied with the
appearance, open the door and apply the
remainder of the screws. Check all screws for
tightness.
The metal frame on the glass door has
numerous mounting holes on each side of the
door. This is to accommodate the Sub-Zero
accessory handles and provide for easy attach-
ment of the handle through the door frame.
The illustration below shows how the holes
pass through the door frame. The hole center
is on the small locator groove in the front of
the frame. A

the front wall of the extrusion and a

diameter hole through the rest of the frame.
Exercise caution when drilling holes for
mounting the panel to the door frame.
