The handle and handle mounting hardware are not provided with the refrigerator. ◊ Dacor recommends handles with larger D-style pulls. Any handle designed for use with an appliance should produce satisfactory results. Handle kits are available through your Dacor dealer. ◊ Handle kits do not include the necessary mounting screws since screw length required varies with the total thickness of the panels. The panel craftsman must determine and obtain the proper mounting screws for the application. If using screws with thick heads, they must be countersunk into the panel before installing the handles. 20" Typ. (50.8 cm) 36" Max. (91.4 cm) IMPORTANT: Dacor does not advise the use of single pull knobs. Custom Side Panels - IF42/IF48 Custom side panels may be needed when not enough space is available to have cabinets on both sides of the refrigerator or when the refrigerator is placed at the end of a cabinet run. You may choose an Inset or Recessed Inset panel installation for models IF42 and IF48.
