ELECTRICAL R E Q U I R E M E N T S

A 115 V AC, 60 Hz, 15 amp circuit breaker andelectrical supply are required. A separatecircuit, servicing only this appliance, isrequired.

All Sub-Zero Built-In models are equipped witha power supply cord with a 3-prong groundingplug, which must be plugged into a mating3-prong grounding-type wall receptacle. Followthe National Electrical Code and local codesand ordinances when installing the receptacle.For location of the electrical supply, refer to theInstallation Specifications illustration for yourspecific model on pages 5–7.

IMPORTANT NOTE: A ground fault circuitinterrupter (GFCI) is not recommended andmay cause interruption of operation.

Do not use an extension cord or two-prong adapter. Electrical ground isrequired on this appliance. Do not removethe power supply cord ground prong.

The outlet must be checked by a qualifiedelectrician to be sure that it is wired withthe correct polarity. Verify that the outletprovides 115 volts and is properlygrounded.

PLUMBING R E Q U I R E M E N T S

For Built-In models with an automatic icemaker, rough in the water supply line. Connecta 1/4" OD copper line to the house supply. Usean easily accessible shut-off valve between thewater supply and the unit. This valve is usuallyplaced about 6" (152) from the compressionfitting. Do not use self-piercing valves. Asaddle valve kit (part # 4200880) is availablefrom your Sub-Zero dealer.

The water line should be routed up throughthe floor within 1/2" (13) from the back wall andno higher than 3" (76) off the floor. If the watersupply is brought in from behind the unit,route the water line through the back wall, nomore than 3" (76) from the floor. Regardless ofthe routing, allow 3' (1 m) of excess coppertubing to remain outside the wall or floor foreasy connection to the unit. For location of thewater supply, refer to the Installation Specifica-tions illustration for your specific model onpages 5–7.

A line filter is required when water conditionshave a high sediment content. The ice makeroperates on water pressure of 20 psi (1.4 bar)to 100 psi (6.9 bar).

A reverse osmosis system can be used,provided there is a consistent water pressureof 20 psi (1.4 bar) to 100 psi (6.9 bar) suppliedto the water valve at all times.

IMPORTANT NOTE: In some cases a reverseosmosis water filter system may not be able tomaintain the minimum water pressure consis-tently.

Good water is important for high quality ice.It is not recommended that the ice maker beconnected to a softened water supply. Watersoftener chemicals, such as salt from amalfunctioning softener, can damage the icemaker mold and lead to poor ice quality. If asoftened water supply cannot be avoided, it isimportant that the water softener be well main-tained and operating properly.

OVERLAY PA N E L S

If your customer has chosen an overlay designapplication, make sure that the panels you areabout to install match dimensions listed in theOverlay Panel Specifications on pages 18–19.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The size of the overlaypanel is critical. It must fit over the door frame.

Overlay models are shipped without handlehardware. The cabinet manufacturer ordesigner will provide handle hardware at thejob site to match the overall decoratingscheme.

To install overlay panels, first remove themagnet backed trim molding using a piece oftape to pull it away from the frame and exposethe screws. The molding will bend at thecenter so that you can remove it. Remove theframe by removing the four screws. The doorchannel is now ready to accept the overlaypanel assembly.

Sub-Zero allows a 1/4" (6) space to slide thebacking material into place in the frame. Ifyour material is thicker than a 1/4" (6), eitherrout an edge around the panel to get a properfit or mount the decorative overlay panel on asheet of 1/4" (6) thick material and insert thebacking material into the channel.

You must allow for 0.10" (3) space between thebacker board and the decorative panel, so thepanel will slide easily into the door frame.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The weight of each panelassembly cannot exceed 50 lbs (23 kg).

Illustration 12 below is a cross section view ofthe three panel assembly showing placementof the door /drawer/grille trim. Illustration 13shows a rear view of the three panel assemblyand critical dimensions, standard for allmodels.

Install the handle hardware before insertingthe panel. We recommend larger D-style pulls.The use of small, one-piece knobs is notrecommended. If you use screws with thickheads, you will need to countersink the screwsinto the backer panel before sliding theassembly into place.

Slide the panel into the frame on the door.With the panel in position, replace the frameend. Be sure the panel is inserted completelyinto the channel for proper fit and alignment.

Replace the trim molding by inserting the top,then the bottom into the handle channel.Release the middle and set the magnets.
