Adequate ventilation around your refrigerator
The diagram below shows the recommended
airspace to allow for ventilation of your
refrigerator.
If you have a cupboard above the refrigerator
with a rear gap of less than 100 mm (Y) ,
recommended clearance at the top of the
refrigerator increases from 30mm to 70mm (X)
minimum.
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 are designed to sit 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 nutunder
door hinge down until the refrigerator is
tilted back by 10mm (see diagram).
3. Wind the large height adjusting nut on the
handle side down until the refrigerator is
level and stable. If you have difficulty
winding the nut or height adjusting foot
down, have someone tilt the refrigerator
back so you have better access.
4. Check the alignment of the refrigerator to
the surrounding cupboards to see if it is
level. You can adjust the level as detailed in
step 2 and 3.
5. If you find your refrigerator rocks from
corner to corner, it means your floor is
uneven. Find a piece of plastic or
hardboard etc. and pack it firmly under the
roller.
6. You may now need to fine-tune the
installation by repeating steps 3, 4 and 5.
7. When you have the appliance in its final
position, it needs to be stabilised. Wind the
stability foot under the door hinge down to
the floor until it just makes contact with the
floor. Lift the front of the appliance to take
the weight off the stability foot, then turn it
half a turn further to ensure firm contact
with the floor. Wind the large height
adjusting nut back up to ensure all the
weight is now on the front stability foot.
Wind the large height adjusting nut back
up to ensure all the weight is now on the
front stability foot.
8. Repeat step 7 for the stability foot on the
handle side. Whenever you need to move
the appliance, be sure to wind the feet
back up so that the appliance can roll
freely and be sure to reset it when
reinstalling.
