Installation
Location & Air Circulation
Locate your fridge away from sources of heat e.g.
cookers, radiators, direct sunlight as extreme temperature
will affect its performance.
Allow a minimum 30mm (1
1
/
4
inch) between the top of
the fridge and the underside of the worktop.
Providing you follow the recommended ventilation requirements you will :-
●
Prolong the life of the fridge.
●
Minimise the risk of condensation on the outside of the fridge.
●
Minimise the running costs.
●
Minimise operating sounds caused by vibration.

Minimum space required to open door
The fridge needs a space of 600mm (24 inches) in front to allow the door to open.
When positioning the fridge next to a unit, a gap of 30mm (1
1
/
4
inch) can be left
at the hinge side of the door to allow the easy removal of furniture. If preferred
the fridge can be positioned so that a gap is not left. This will restrict how far the
door can be opened but the furniture can still be removed (see diagram below).
The door hinge side can be changed to make it easier to open (see ‘Door Reversal’
in the CLEANING & MAINTENANCE section).
