Safety and Warning Information

Installation Safety

WARNING

• Before installing the under counter refrigeration, connect it to a power outlet and turn the under counter refrigeration ON to make sure the under counter refrigeration is working.
• Choose a location away from a heater, boiler, or direct sunlight.
  • Install the unit where air flows freely and where the under counter refrigeration is well ventilated.
  • Install the unit so that air flows unobstructed through the front air grill. If the air circulation is not ensured, it may interfere with the normal functioning of the product.
• Outside animals (rodents) can chew on the power cord and cause a fire; therefore, install the unit where there is no access to animals.
• If the cabinet is made of soft material (ex: plaster, etc.), it can have a weak structure and be damaged. Therefore, use a cabinet made of sturdy, strong material.
  • Install the under counter refrigeration with a team of at least 2 people.
• Refer to the dimensions of the cabinet and prepare the cabinet with good air circulation.
• Use cabinet that will not warp from product heat emissions or humidity from the opening and closing of the under counter refrigeration.

NOTE

This under counter refrigeration is a “built-in” style under counter refrigeration, meaning that the under counter refrigeration requires installation inside a recess in existing kitchen cabinetry.

Before moving the under counter refrigeration, clear the route to the location where it will be installed.

Check all product dimensions and the tipping radius with any doorways, hallways, stairs, corners, etc., to ensure a clear passageway.

English10

WARNING

Tip Hazard

This appliance is relatively heavy on the top and prone to tip over when not securely installed.

Keep doors taped closed until under counter refrigeration is in its final position and ready to be secured in place.

Use two or more people to move and install under counter refrigeration.

Failure to do so can result in death or serious injury.

DANGER

Three identical black spiky spikes on a white background, no text or symbols present

Explosion Risk

Keep flammable materials and vapors - such as gasoline - away from the under counter refrigeration.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Handle Specifications

Handle Countersunk screw Custom panel Appliance door/drawer Handle Installation for Units with Custom Door Panels (Top View)

Before installing the custom panels, you must first install the door/drawer handles. With custom panel models, you have the advantage of being able to select a handle style that meets your own personal taste. Handles are not provided with custom panel models. Selected handle kits are available through your Dacor dealer. Dacor does not advise the use of single pull knobs.

The panel craftsman needs to select and purchase the required fasteners for the installation. The screw heads must be countersunk into the panel to prevent interference during depth adjustment.

CAUTION

We recommend installing a handle for a custom panel. Without the handle, you may catch your fingers in the door when opening or closing the door.

Integrated Panel

Dimensions

NOTE

• Due to differences in surrounding cabinetry, the panel may not perfectly align with the door. The procedure below is designed to provide a finished integrated panel that seamlessly integrates with surrounding cabinetry.
• Panel Preparation: a full integrated door panel completely covers the door frame so it appears built-in.

• The door panel must not weigh more than 22 lbs (10 kg). It is important to ensure that all holes are drilled to the correct depth in order to avoid splits in the wood when hardware is installed.

• Cut the panels to the dimensions listed in the diagram below.

• Optional: Stain or finish the panel to your desired stain or color. Be sure to closely follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer.

• Optional: Install handles and hardware.

NOTE

• The appliance will need up to (870 mm) below the underside of the counter to leave room for leveling adjustments.
• When applying an integrated frame to a unit, ensure that both sides are finished in order to prevent warping. In some frame installations, the panel may be visible through the glass while the door is open.

How to install the integrated panel

1. Fully open the door.
2. Starting at the corner, pull the gasket away from door as in Fig A.
3. Continue to pull the gasket free from the gasket channel.
4. Upon removal, lay the gasket down on a flat surface.
5. Secure the integrated panel to the door using clamps as in Fig. B. Durable tape may also be used. Bar clamps may be used to secure the panel to the door. If using tape, be certain the tape will not damage panel finish upon removal.
6. Using a 7/64" (3 mm) drill bit, drill 6 pilot holes 1/2" (12 mm) deep into the wood panel using the holes in the door frame as a guide.

NOTE

It is important to ensure that all drilled holes are drilled to the correct depth in order to avoid splits in the wood when hardwood is installed.

1. Locate 6 of the M4x34 mm screws provided with your unit.
2. Using a Phillips screwdriver, place one screw into each of the 6 pilot holes and screw down as in Fig. C. Do not overtighten screws.
3. Ensure the screws sit flush against the bottom of the channel. Remove the clamps from the door.

NOTE

If a panel requires additional adjustment after removing clamps, slightly loosen each screw and adjust the panel as necessary. Tighten screws upon completion.

1. Starting at the corners, re-install the gasket into the gasket channel in the frame. Make sure the gasket is fully seated.

• Close the door and make sure the limiter pin does not interfere with the hinge cover.

CAUTION

• Insert the limiter pin before putting the under counter refrigeration into the cabinet.
• If the limiter pin is not inserted completely, the hinge and the hinge cover may get damaged.
