Please follow the steps for installation to ensure your appliance operates correctly.
1. Power
The appliance must be installed so the plug is accessible.
To ensure that the appliance is not accidentally switched off, connect your refrigerator or freezer
to its own power point. Do not plug in any other appliance at this power point or use extension
cords and double adaptors, as the combined weight of both power cords can pull the double
adaptor from a wall outlet socket.
For power requirements, refer to the information on the serial plate located at the front bottom
right-hand side of the refrigerator when the door is open.
It is essential that the appliance be properly grounded (earthed).
2. Location
Your refrigerator or freezer should not be located in direct sunlight or next to any heat
generating appliance such as a cooktop, oven or dishwasher.
3. Stability
It is important that all four corners of the refrigerator or freezer base are supported firmly on the
floor to eliminate any cabinet movement.
Installing the appliance on a soft or uneven or unlevel floor may result in twisting of the cabinet
and poor sealing of the doors. If the doors do not seal properly, warm air will enter
the food storage areas causing the temperature to increase, resulting in food spoilage and
food loss.
Before moving your refrigerator or freezer into its position, ensure that the adjustable front feet
are fully retracted by turning them anticlockwise, i.e. towards the right of the cabinet.
Position your refrigerator or freezer. Turn the adjustable feet clockwise, i.e. to the left, to lower
the adjustable front feet. Raise the front of the appliance until it is stable and the doors move
towards the closed position, on their own, when open.
The front levelling foot on the hinge side should take the majority of the weight of the cabinet
and the cabinet should be stable, i.e. cabinet should not rock or wobble.
