Install Base Grille
There are two pieces to the base grille to allow for a custom fit: the
base grille itself and the skirt. The skirt can be added to the base
grille in order to extend it all the way to the floor.
1. To see if the skirt is needed, place the base grille into position.
Do not attach the base grille to the refrigerator. Measure the
distance between the bottom of the base grille and the floor.
The gap must be a minimum of ¹⁄₂" (1.27 cm) in order to add
the skirt.
NOTE: If the gap measures less than ¹⁄₂" (1.27 cm), skip
steps 3 and 4 of the instructions, and install the base grille
only.
2. Remove the film from the base grille.
3. Snap the skirt onto the base grille.
4. Trim the skirt by scoring the proper “V” groove with a utility
knife. Break the skirt at the score line.
5. Using the two screws, attach the base grille assembly to the
refrigerator as shown.
NOTE: Drive in the right side screw first.
