INSTALLING YOUR NEW
APPLIANCE
Unpacking
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
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.

the

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.

proud of cabinetry (not
flush). The clearances shown above are the recommended
minimum clearances.
The clearance at the rear should not exceed 75mm.
Installing your refrigerator
1. Roll the refrigerator into place.
The rollers are designed for forward or backward
movement only. They are not castors. Moving 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).
