Unpacking

          ENVIRONMENT

Most of the packing materials are recyclable. 
Please d ispose of those materials through your 
local recycling depot or by placing them in 
appropriate collection containers.

Important – check for any damages or marks. 
If you find the refrigerator is damaged or 
marked, you must report it within 7 days should 
you wish to claim for damage/marks under the 
manufacturers warranty. This does not affect 
your statutory rights.

Clean your refrigerator thoroughly following 
the instructions in the “Cleaning” section and 
wipe off any dust that has accumulated during 
shipping.

Locating the refrigerator  

  

          

CAUTION

Automatic aerosol systems (such as insect 
control) should not be located adjacent to 
the product as the spray may cause long 
term damage to the external plastics of the 
appliance.

Do not put the refrigerator in a location that is 
too cold or is unprotected, for example in 
a garage or on a veranda. The ambient 
temperature should be above 10°C.

Put the refrigerator in a dry place avoiding 
areas of high moisture or humidity.
Ensure the refrigerator is located on an even 
surface.

Adequate ventilation around  your 
refrigerator

The diagram below shows the recommened 
airspace to allow for ventilation of your 
refrigerator.
 

3. 

INSTALLING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE

 

 

 

 

When positioned in a corner  area,  spacing  of 
right  side  at  least  260  mm  and  left  side  at 
least 355 mm on the hinge side will allow the 
doors to open enough to enable the removal of 
bins  and shelves.

Note: Doors are designed to sit proud of cabinetry (not 
flush). The clearances shown above are the recom-
mended minimum clearances.

Installing your refrigerator

Allow the following clearances for ease of 
installation, proper air circulation, and plumbing 
and electrical connections:

 

Note: If your refrigerator is placed with the door hinge 
side against a wall, you may have to allow additional 
space so the door can be opened wider.

Door opening

Your refrigerator should be positioned to allow 
easy access to a counter when removing food. 
For best use of refrigerator drawers and freezer 
baskets, the refrigerator should be in a position 
where both can be fully opened.

          

CAUTION

LED lighting

Your appliance is fitted with long life LED light-
ing. In the unlikely event the LED lights should 
fail, then the LED lights should be serviced by 
the service agent, to avoid a safety hazard. 
Refer to the warranty page for contact details.
