INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLING THE REFRIGERATOR 

Be careful when installing the refrigerator model 

NDR1062

. It is equipped with the latest vacuum 

insulated panel technology. These insulating panels 
are located on the top, back, bottom, sides and doors. 
If the surface is punctured, loss of insulation will oc-
cur, resulting  in poor refrigerator performance. 

For a proper installation, follow these instructions: 

Make sure the fl oor is solid and level. 
The refrigerator must be level and installed in a substantial 

enclosure. 
Do not install the appliance directly on carpeting. Carpet-

ing must be removed or protected by a metal or wood panel 

beneath the appliance, which extends at least full width and 

depth of the appliance.

wood strip

 must be in place across the 

upper opening of the enclosure. The top 

frame of the refrigerator will be anchored to 

the wood strip with screws.  
All areas within the recess have to be sealed. The sealing 

should provide a provide a complete isolation of the appli-

ance’s combustion system from the vehicle interior. 

Make sure there is a complete seal between the front frame 

of the refrigerator and the top, sides and bottom of the enclo-

sure. A length of sealing strip is applied to the rear surface of 

the front frame for this purpose. 

RM2351

 and 

RM2354

: In addition, apply a sealing strip to 

the foremost fl oor of the enclosure. 

Be careful not to damage the sealing strip when the 

refrigerator is put in place!


SECURING THE REFRIGERATOR

When installing the refrigerator, make sure the heat can not be 

trapped in the space between the refrigerator and storage area. 

This would make the top of the refrigerator hot and reduces the 

effi ciency of the refrigerator. Any space between the counter, 

storage area or ceiling and top of the refrigerator greater than
1½ inches should be blocked. 
After the refrigerator has been installed (ensuring a combustion 

seal at the front frame) it must be secured in the enclosure with  

screws (not included). Note that it is important to follow the 

sequence in securing refrigerator since failure in doing that can 

cause leakage between the frame and cabinet! 

RM2351-2354

Install the fi ve screws in the following order:

Four screws installed through the front frame.

(To cover the screw heads, use the plugs in the parts 

bag.)
One screw installed in the rear base. 

RM2451-2454-2551-2554-2652-2662-2663-2852-

2862-3862 & NDR1062

Install the six screws in the following order: 

Two screws installed through the front base. 

(Installation of the lower front strip.)

The refrigerator is provided with a lower front 

strip (shipped as a loose part).  The front strip is 

to be attached after the 

refrigerator is set into 

the cutout opening.

Install the lower front 

strip by sliding it 

under the bottom 

hinge plate. 
The hinge plate can be 

on the right or left side 

depending on the door swing.  
Once the lower front strip is slipped under the 

hinge, the part is possible to swing into place.
