3 - Installation
Installing your new refrigerator.
The refrigerator should arrive with the front adjustable rollers wound down to tilt the top of the refrigerator backwards by about 10-15mm from upright (See Diagram 1). The stability foot should also be wound fully up so it will not interfere with the operation of the rollers (See Diagram 2). Diagram 1 1. Roll the refrigerator into its final position. WARNING: 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. 2. The top of the refrigerator should be tilted back by approximately 10-15mm. This will allow the doors to selfclose providing a consistent door seal. (See Diagram 1) It is normal for the freezer door to momentarily open and re-close when the food compartment door is closed firmly. If the freezer stays open you will need to tilt the refrigerator backwards a little further. Diagram 4 8. Clean your refrigerator thoroughly following the instructions on page 15 and wipe off any dust that has accumulated during shipping. Diagram 2 3. If the refrigerator is not tilted back, you can adjust the two front rollers by turning the large, plastic roller nut (See Diagram 2). This will increase the height of the rollers. One turn of the nut will tilt the refrigerator back approximately 10mm. If you have difficulty turning the roller nut you can have someone tilt the refrigerator back, so that you have better access. Alternatively, you can access the rollers from the side, using a flat screwdriver to help you turn the nut (see Diagram 2). 9. Plug the refrigerator into the power point. Don�t use a double adaptor. If you need to roll the refrigerator out to get at the power point, remember to raise the stabilizing foot before you do so. 10.We recommend that you let your refrigerator run for two to three hours before you put any food in it. This will allow you to check that it is operating properly and that enough cool air is going to the freezer. Congratulations! You have successfully installed your refrigerator. 4. Check the alignment of the refrigerator to the surrounding cupboards. The top of the refrigerator should be level from side to side (see Diagram 3). If you need to adjust the level, use the adjustable rollers as discussed in Step 3. 5. If the refrigerator now rocks from one corner to the opposite rear corner, this means that the floor is uneven; you will need to put some packing under one of the rear rollers.You could use thin pieces of solid material, such as thin board, vinyl floor tiles or laminate. Place the packing so that it will sit under one of the rear rollers when the refrigerator is rolled into position. 6.You may now need to fine-tune the installation by repeating Steps 3, 4 and 5. 7. When you have the refrigerator in final position wind the stabilising foot down until it just makes contact with the floor (see Diagram 4). Whenever you need to move the refrigerator, be sure to wind the foot back up so that the refrigerator can roll freely.
