U-Line Wood Trim Finishing

9 WARNING To prevent permanent damage to the inner liner of the unit, the wire rack wood trim MUST be removed from the unit for staining and/or finishing. Allow stain/finish to dry thoroughly (at least 24 hours) in accordance with the stain/finish manufacturer’s instructions, prior to re- installing the wood trim inside the cabinet of the unit. Failure to do so may cause the inner liner of the unit to have a permanent odor, which is not covered by the warranty. IMPORTANT IMPORTANT • Your model may contain an electronic display panel in the lowest level trim piece. After removing the trim screws and gently pulling the trim from its location, a wiring harness connector will become visible. Unplug the connector and remove the trim from the interior. • Glass in door is tinted. Stain may look darker when door is closed. Removing Wire Racks 1. Grasp the end of the rack, and gently slide it out until it stops. 2. Remove any bottles stored on the rack. 3. Press the left rack release lever (see above) down, and at the same time, lift the corresponding right rack release lever up, and pull the rack out until it is free of the tracks and the cabinet. 4. Do not remove the track side rails from the cabinet. To insert a rack in the cabinet: 1. Align the left and right rack channels with the tracks in the cabinet, and ensuring an even track engagement on both sides, gently push the rack into the cabinet until it stops. Before reloading the rack, ensure proper operation of the travel stops in the left and right track rails by pulling the rack out gently until it completely stops. 8 Wood Trim Finishing Staining and final finish application: IMPORTANT IMPORTANT DO NOT use oil-based stains on wood trim. Vapors from oil-based stains will permanently penetrate the liner and will not dissipate over time. 1. Remove all screws securing wood trim to interior parts, and remove the trim from the cabinet interior. 2. Lightly sand and clean wood. 3. Apply Minwax® Water-Based Wood Stain to wood with a synthetic bristle brush or a foam applicator. Allow stain to penetrate about three minutes. Before the stain is dry, take a stain dampened rag and remove any excess stain remaining. Wipe towards the grain with medium pressure to achieve the desired stain color. 4. After two hours, repeat step 2. This will even out the color of the wood. 5. Allow stain to dry for a minimum of three hours before applying the final finish. 6. If desired, sand the wood with very fine sandpaper to smooth the surface after staining. 7. Remove all dust from the wood, and apply one coat of Minwax® Polycrylic® Protective Finish using a synthetic bristle brush to the wood. Apply this finish in a thin coat following towards the grain. Apply the finish to the back and sides of the wood first, and allow it to dry for two hours. Apply the finish to the front side of the wood next, and allow it to dry for two hours. Sand with very fine 220 grit sandpaper. Apply two morel coats of finish in the same manner, but do not sand the trim after applying the final third coat. 8. Allow the final coat to dry for 24 hours before reinstalling the trim to the cabinet interior parts. Final finish-only application: 1. Remove all screws securing wood trim to interior parts, and remove the trim. 2. Lightly scruff sand the wood trim with 280 or finer grit sandpaper. 3. Remove sanding dust with a clean, dry cloth. 4. The factory-applied seal is compatible with almost all finishes. A low odor, water clean up, quick-drying finish such as Minwax® Polycrylic® Protective Finish is recommended (Minwax® Polycrylic® is an ultra fast-drying water-based finish). Apply a thin coat of a clear, protective finish, following the container label directions. 5. Lightly sand and reapply if desired. Allow the final coat to dry for 24 hours before reinstalling the trim to the cabinet interior parts.

Prepare The New Overlay Panel

IMPORTANT IMPORTANT The overlay door panel must not weigh more than 20 lbs. The thickness of the door panel must be 3/4” 1. Place a towel, or similar, soft non-marking material out on a flat clean surface. Be sure the material is large enough to have the wood panel not touch the hard mating surface. 2. Lay the wood panel out with the front side of the wood facing down. 3. Cut the foam tape in to four pieces, two pieces the width of the overlay and two pieces the height of the overlay. 4. Remove adhesive protection strip from one pice of the cut foam and align the edge of the foam tape to the inside edge of the overlay as shown, adhering the foam tape to the overlay. See Below 5. Trim each piece of tape immediately after applying it to the overlay. Do not allow any overlapping of the foam tape. Damage to the overlay can occur is the foam tape is not trimmed correctly. 6. If required, attach any optional cabinet hardware to the wood panel at this time. If an optional cabinet handle is installed, make sure the mounting screw heads are below (countersunk) the back surface of the overlay. Note: After attaching the optional cabinet hardware, additional supports may be needed to keep panel flat for next steps. Attaching the overlay panel 1. Remove the top hinge pivot pin with a Phillips screwdriver and lift the door off bottom hinge pin. Be careful not to lose the door closer insert sets. Save pivot pin for use later. See figure in next column. 2. Carefully lay the door over the wood panel, making sure door is oriented correctly (top of door with top of wood overlay). 3. Pull door gasket out of the groove completely. Start in the middle and pull outward, moving towards the corners (See Below). This may take some force, but be careful not to cut or rip the gasket. 4. After the gasket has been removed, place it on a clean, flat surface. 5. Secure the door to the back of the wood overlay using tape on all four corners. Make sure all four edges are aligned. (See figure on next page)

Use the door frame holes as a guide to lightly punch pilot holes

for the #6x1” pan head screws 7. Attach the door to the overlay using #6x1” wood screws. IMPORTANT IMPORTANT If you decide to drill pilot holes, remove the wood overlay from the door, and do not use a drill larger then 7/64”. Be sure not to drill deeper then 3/8”. The door frame and wood overlay must be aligned properly or the door will not operate correctly. Note: After attaching the wood to the door, double check the bottom pivot hole location. If the hole in the pivot bracket si covered by any wood, chase through the hole with a 11/32” drill to open hole in door panel. DO NOT drill deeper than 1/4”. Assembling Door To Cabinet 8. Starting at the corners and working toward the center, push the door gasket back into place. Make sure the gasket is fully seated on all four sides and corners. 9. Check the closure assembly on the bottom hinge to be sure it is seated correctly in the bosses in the hinge. 10. Position door over closer. Be sure the door hinge plate holes align with the bosses on the closer (see below). Failure to do so will result in the door not sitting in the proper position and door will not align correctly. (Sometimes it is helpful to open the door 180° to have the closer and pivot align correctly). 11. Holding the door in the closed position, install the pivot post through the top hinge into the top pivot plate. Tighten securely with a Phillips screwdriver, making sure post is seated fully. 12.

Level & Install Unit

14 1111 Installation Leveling Information It is recommended that the unit is level. 1. Use a level to check the levelness of the unit from front to back and from side to side. Level should be placed along top edge and side edge as shown 2. If the unit is not level, adjust the feet on the corners of the unit as necessary (not available in CO29 models). 3. Check the levelness after each adjustment and repeat the previous steps until the unit is level. INSTALLATION TIP If the room floor is higher than the floor in the cut-out opening, adjust the rear feet to achieve a total unit rear height of 1/8" less than the opening’s rear height. Shorten the unit height in the front by adjusting the front feet. This allows the unit to be gently tipped into the opening. Readjust the front feet to level the unit after it is correctly positioned in the opening. 1 Turn Foot to Adjust Installation 1. Plug in the powercord. 2. Gently push the unit into position. Be careful not to kink the water supply line or entangle the electrical cord. 3. Re-check the leveling, from front to back and side to side. Make any necessary adjustments. The unit’s top surface should be approximately 1/8" below the countertop. 4. Remove the tape from the glass shelves and wipe out the inside of the unit with a clean, water-dampened cloth. Relocating the Shelves Both the glass shelves in the refrigerator and the inner door shelves can be moved to accommodate your bottles, cans and containers. Glass Shelves on Right-Hand Hinge Units • Open door fully, grasp shelf firmly, lift front edge slightly, and pull straight out. • Choose new location and slide shelf onto the appropriate rib. Glass Shelves on Left-Hand Hinge Units • Pull shelf out about 6” to clear the wall’s molded protrusion. • Tilt right-hand edge of shelf up. • Keeping at this angle and hugging the right wall, pull the shelf out. • Choose new location and insert over ribs, tilting right-hand edge up. Push in, then lower shelf onto ribs. Door Shelves • First pull shelf up at a 45° angle, then straight out (see Figure 39). • Choose new location and line up on bosses. First push straight in, then down at a 45° angle. Installation Troubleshooting Problem Q: The door remains open unless it is pushed closed. Solution A: The hinges should be self-closing when the door is open approximately 8". If this is not the case, make sure the closers are clean, greased and installed correctly. Also, re-check leveling from front to back of the unit and readjust if necessary. Make sure that pivot plate is installed correctly. Problem Q: The custom overlay door was designed to align with the rest of the cabinet doors, but the unit has crept forward. Solution A: Make sure that the electrical cord and water supply line are not obstructing the installation.
