caution

Ice and water models

The water connection to your ice and water product 

should only be done by a licensed refrigeration mechanic, 

plumber or electrician. The new hose-sets supplied with 

the appliances must be used and any old hose-sets should 

not be reused. All relevant information regarding the water 

connection is detailed in the water kit provided with your 

product for use by the professional installer only.
The automatic ice and water dispenser needs a drinkable 

water supply with a pressure of:
•   minimum 206 kPa (30 psi, 2.11 kgf/cm2)
•   maximum 689 kPa (100 psi, 7.04 kgf/cm2)
In some areas water pressure is significantly higher due to 

local conditions. In such areas a pressure reducing valve 

must be used. Ensure your plumber or installer checks your 

local water pressure when installing your refrigerator.
If you are using your refrigerator for the first time, or if you 

have not used the dispenser for some time:
•   discard the first seven or eight cups of water
•    discard any ice that the ice maker produces in the  

first 24 hours (contaminants could have settled in the 

water pipes)

  (see page 12 for more information)
It is not recommended that the tubing be extended as this
can adversely affect the flow of water to the ice maker or 

water dispenser, however some points to note are:
1.   It is better to have the tap accessible without having to roll  

the refrigerator forward, so we recommend putting it outside  

the cavity as shown by the taps in the diagram below.

2.    It is recommended, but not essential that the height  

of the tap should be 400mm from the ground.

3.   If the refrigerator is required to be pulled forward for 

cleaning, the water pipe may need to be removed  

from the tap.

Adjusting door alignment

Each door is independently adjustable in the vertical 

direction by turning the adjustable bolts under the hinges 

using the spanner provided. 

Large plastic roller nut

Front Roller

Adjusting Bolt

The doors can be adjusted up or down. Depending on the 

amount of adjustment required it may be sufficient to adjust 

only one door. (see Diagrams below)

Note: When the height of the rollers and adjusting bolts  

are correctly adjusted the refrigerator will stand firmly on  

the floor and the doors will be in line with one another.

Internal packaging 

Please remove any internal packaging material before use.
There may be a strip of foam taped to the door bins. There  

will also be tape applied to several parts such as the locker.
There may be a sheet of protective film attached to the  

multi-flow duct at the rear of the refrigerator section, please 

remove this prior to operation as it may obstruct airflow.  

Protective film may also be on the display fitted to the  

control housing.
Please remove all internal packaging before use. Any glue or  

tape residue or the like should be removed with a solution 

of mild detergent and water.
