The Model 315W offers two door panel design
alternatives; stainless steel (/S) or overlay (/O).
Both of these design options are available with
glass (G) doors.

Model 315W/S (classic stainless steel) is
shipped from the factory with the decorative
stainless steel door panel and matching handle
in place.

The Model 315W/O (overlay) door is designed
to accept a decorative door panel to match
surrounding cabinetry. The door panel and the
handle will be provided by the customer.

For overlay panel handle hardware, we recom-
mend a D-style handle, centered top to bottom
along the edge opposite the hinge. You may
have to countersink screw heads to ensure
hardware does not interfere with panels fitting
flush with unit doors.

Before beginning installation, check for the
correct components for the fit and finish
desired. 

If you have questions, contact your Sub-Zero
dealer or cabinet supplier. Additional panel
information can be found in the Sub-Zero
Design Guide. Check our website at

Once the Model 315W is in place, you can
install the kickplate. There is some adjustment
to the mounting assembly so that the kickplate
will fit flush with the surrounding area. Be sure
that nothing obstructs the vents of the kick-
plate. Refer to the illustration below.

The kickplate can be painted another color, if
you choose. Follow these easy steps:

Rough up surface to be painted with fine
grit sandpaper

Wipe with alcohol to ensure it is clean and
dry

Use an appliance or industrial grade oil
base, or high gloss enamel paint

IMPORTANT NOTE: The Model 315W has
been designed to be serviced in place, but in
some cases it may be necessary to pull the
unit out for service. For this reason, do not
restrict access to the cabinet at the front top
and bottom.

If a floor is to be installed after the unit has
been installed, spacing shims equal to the
thickness of the floor should be installed under
the unit to keep it level with the floor.
