•  If you want to have the door swing reversed, we recommend that you contact a 

qualified technician. You should only try to reverse the door yourself if you believe 

that you are qualified to do so.

•  All parts removed must be saved to do the reinstallation of the door. You should 

rest the unit on something solid so that it will not slip during the door change 

process. Do not lay the unit flat as this may damage the coolant system. Ensure the 

unit is unplugged and empty. 

Location

When selecting a position for your unit you should make sure the floor is flat and firm, and 

the room is well ventilated with an average room temperature of between 16°C and 38°C. 

Avoid locating your unit near a heat source, e.g. cooker, boiler or radiator. Also avoid direct 

sunlight as it may increase the electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures 

may also cause the unit not to perform properly. This unit is not designed for use in a garage 

or outdoor installation. Do not drape the unit with any covering.
When installing the unit, ensure that 40 mm of free space is left at both sides, 20 mm at 

the rear and 25 mm at the top of the unit. The door can be opened to the right or the left, 

depending on what better suits the location. Please ensure there is adequate space for the 

door to fully open.

Reversing the Door Swing

Tools required: Phillips style screwdriver / Flat bladed screwdriver / Hexagonal spanner

1.  Tilt the unit slightly towards the rear and 

prop it securely. Two people are required 

to tilt the unit during the door reversal 

process.

•  Ensure the unit is unplugged and empty.
•  Adjust the two levelling feet to their highest position.
•  To take the door off it is necessary to tilt the unit backwards. You should rest the 

unit on something solid so that it will not slip during the door reversing process.

•  All parts removed must be saved to do the reinstallation of the door. 
•  Do not lay the unit flat as this may damage the coolant system.
•  We recommend that 2 people handle the unit during assembly.
