Models 424G and 424FSG Installation 13 subzero.com Overlay Door Panel MODEL 424G Inspect the door panel for the minimum 5/8" (16) thickness, the finished inside edge. The glass door has a 10 lbs (5 kg) weight limit. Refer to the wine storage section of the Sub-Zero design guide for additional panel information. Decide if the handle will be attached through the glass door frame or just through the decorative door panel. If it is just through the door panel, the handle must be attached first. Decorative panels are attached to the model 424G door using #8 x 5/8" 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 temporarily inserted into the 1/4" (6) diameter holes in the front of the glass door frame. Refer to the illustration below. With the wine storage 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. OVERLAY PANEL DOOR FRAME TENON CENTER Overlay panel. GASKET 13/32" (11) DIAMETER GLASS 1/4" (6) DIAMETER Door frame cross section. The door panel is then lowered 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 the 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 attachment of the handle through the door frame. If you choose not to use the pre-drilled handle mounting holes, it will be necessary to fasten the handle from the rear of the door panel only, or drill one or more additional holes through the metal frame of the glass door. The cross section illustration shows how this hole passes through the door frame. The hole center is on the small locator groove in the front of the frame. A 1/4" (6) diameter hole is made in the front wall of the extrusion and a 13/32" (11) diameter hole through the rest of the frame.
