Location & Air Circulation
When selecting a position for your freezer, you should make sure the table top is flat and firm and the
room is well ventilated with an average room temperature of between 16˚C and 32˚C.
Locate your freezer away from sources of heat e.g. cookers, radiators, direct sunlight as extreme
temperatures will effect how efficiently your freezer works.
If you are placing your freezer in an out-building such as a garage or annex, ensure that the freezer is
placed above the damp course. Failure to do this will result in condensation forming on the freezer
cabinet and could cause the freezer to rust and fail.
Never place the freezer in a wall recess or fitted cabinets or furniture as this will not allow adequate
ventilation and cause a potential fire hazard. Allow 20mm of space at the sides of the freezer and 50mm
above the freezer. Never push the freezer back against the wall, leave at least a 50mm gap.
Levelling
Once the freezer is positioned in its final location, it can be leveled using the adjustable feet at the front
of the freezer until they are firmly placed on the counter top. Correctly leveling the freezer will stop any
rocking or vibration and keep the door aligned which helps the freezer run reliably and efficiently.
Providing you follow the recommended ventilation requirements you will:
• Increase the life of the freezer.
• Minimise the risk of condensation on the outside of the freezer.
• Minimise the running costs.
• Minimise operating noises caused by vibration.
