ENVIRONMENTAL TIPS
ENVIRONMENT
Most of the packing materials are recyclable. Please
dispose of those materials through your local recycling
depot or by placing them in appropriate collection
containers.
Important – check for any damages or marks. If you find
the refrigerator is damaged or marked, you must report
it within 7 days should you wish to claim for damage/
marks under the manufacturers warranty. This does not
affect your statutory rights.
Clean your refrigerator thoroughly following the
instructions in the “Cleaning” section and wipe off any
dust that has accumulated during shipping.
Locating the refrigerator
WARNING
CAUTION
Automatic aerosol systems (such as insect control)
should not be located adjacent to the product as the
spray may cause long term damage to the external
plastics of the appliance.
Do not put the refrigerator in a location that is too cold or
is unprotected, for example in a garage or on a veranda.
The ambient temperature should be above 10°C.
Put the refrigerator in a dry place avoiding areas of high
moisture or humidity.
Ensure the refrigerator is located on an even surface.

minimum clearance at the top of the refrigerator
increases from 30mm to 70mm (X).
When positioned in a corner area, spacing of at least
350mm (300mm for French door models) on the hinge
side will allow the doors to open enough to enable the

refrigerator sideways may damage your floor and the
rollers. Before moving your refrigerator ensure height
adjusting nut and the stability foot are fully wound up
off the floor.
2. Wind the large height adjusting nut under door hinge
down until the refrigerator is tilted back by 10mm
(see diagram).
