TO AVOID THE RISK OF AN ELECTRICAL SHOCK
DO NOT ATTEMPT REPAIRS YOURSELF.
2. INSTALLATION
2.1 Location
When selecting a location for your unit you should make sure the
floor is flat and firm, and the room is well ventilated. Avoid locating
your unit near a heat source, e.g. cooker, boiler or radiator. Also
avoid direct sunlight as it may increase the electrical consumption.
Extreme cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit not to
perform properly. This unit is not designed for use in a garage or
outdoor installation. Do not drape the unit with any covering.
When installing the unit, ensure that 1/8 inch of free space is left at
both sides, 1 inch at the rear and 1/8 inch at the top of the unit. This
will allow cold air to circulate around the refrigerator and improve
the efficiency of the cooling process.
2.2 Reversing the Door Swing
NOTES:
When reversing the door swing: Read the instructions all the way
through before starting. Handle parts carefully to avoid scratching
the paint. Set screws down by their related parts to avoid using
them in the wrong places. Provide a non-scratching work surface for
the doors.
IMPORTANT: Once you begin, do not move the cabinet until door-
swing reversal is completed. These instructions are for changing the
hinges from the hinges back to the right side, follow these same in-
structions and reverse all references to left and right.
Unplug the refrigerator from its electrical outlet.
