Installing your refrigerator
The appliance should arrive with the
front adjustable rollers wound down to
tilt the top of the refrigerator backwards
by about 10 -15mm from upright.
The stability foot should also be wound
fully up so it will not interfere with the
operation of the rollers (see diagram
in Step 3 below).

the rollers.
1. Roll the refrigerator into its nal position.
2. The top of the refrigerator should be tilted back by
approximately 10 -15mm. This will allow the doors to
self-close providing a consistent door seal.
3. If the refrigerator is not tilted back, you can adjust the
two front rollers by turning the large, plastic roller nut
(see diagram below). This will increase the height of the
rollers. One turn of the nut will tilt the refrigerator back
approximately 10mm. If you have difculty turning the
roller nut you can have someone tilt the refrigerator back,
so that you have better access. Alternatively, you can
access the rollers from the side, using a at screwdriver
to help you turn the nut (see diagram below).
4. Check the alignment of the refrigerator to the
surrounding cupboards. The top of the refrigerator
should be level from side to side (see diagram below).
If you need to adjust the level, use the adjustable rollers
as discussed in Step 3.
Installing your new refrigerator
ClearancearoundyourSidebySiderefrigerator
Your Side by Side Refrigerator can be installed between
cupboards or xtures but you must allow for the following
spaces around the cabinet.
1. allow a minimum of 5mm clearance on both sides.
2. allow 10mm clearance at the back of the refrigerator.
3. allow a minimum of 10mm clearance above hinge covers.
4. allow a 250 or 350mm clearance on the hinge side of
the doors, if you place the refrigerator next to the wall.
This will make cleaning easier.
5. make sure that cupboards or xtures do not stick out
further than the refrigerator cabinet.
ClearancearoundyourTopandBottomMountrefrigerator
1. allow a minimum of 5mm clearance on both sides.
2. allow 10mm clearance at the back of the refrigerator.
3. allow a minimum of 10mm clearance above hinge covers.
4. If you do not have a cupboard with a rear gap, the
recommended clearance area on top increases from
50mm to 90mm.
5. When positioned in a corner area, spacing of at least
350mm on the hinge side will allow the doors to open
enough to enable the removal of bins and shelves.
Note: Doors on all models are designed to sit proud of
cabinetry (not ush). The refrigerator should be placed
against a wall and the gap between the rear of the
refrigerator and the wall should be no greater than 75mm.
