PREPARATION

Clearances

Refrigerator Location

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

Sides ...................................................................................3 mm

Top ....................................................................................25 mm
(If built-in, allow 22 mm for hinge covers.)

Back..................................................................................13 mm

If the refrigerator is against a wall on either side, allow 19 mm for
door clearance.

Do install it on a floor strong enough to support a fully 
loaded refrigerator.

When You Go on Vacation

When You Move

For extended vacations or absences, shut off the power to the
refrigerator, move the freezer control to the “

” position, and 

clean the interior with a baking soda solution of 15 ml of baking soda
to one liter of water. Wipe dry. To prevent odors, leave an open box of
baking soda in the refrigerator. Leave doors open.

Move icemaker feeler arm to

(up) position, which stops

icemaking, and be sure to shut off water supply to the refrigerator.

For shorter vacations, remove perishable foods and leave controls at
regular settings. However, if room temperature is expected to drop
below 16°C, follow the same instructions as for extended vacations.

Disconnect power cord from wall outlet, remove all food, and clean
and dry the interior.

Secure all loose items such as grille, shelves and storage pans by
taping them securely in place to prevent damage.

Be sure refrigerator stays in upright position during actual moving and
in van. Refrigerator must be secured in van to prevent movement.
Protect outside of refrigerator with blanket.

Rollers

Leveling

Adjustable rollers behind the base grille enable you to move the
refrigerator away from the wall for cleaning. These rollers should be
set so that the refrigerator rests firmly on the floor. Side-by-side
refrigerators also have specially     
designed door hinges that lift 
both doors slightly when opened,
allowing the force of gravity to 
help close them securely.

To adjust rollers, remove the base grille by grasping it at the bottom
and pulling it out.

Turn front roller adjusting screws clockwise to raise the
refrigerator, counterclockwise to lower it. Use an adjustable wrench
(3/8

² 

hex head bolt) or pliers.

Turn the rear roller adjusting screws clockwise to raise the
refrigerator, counterclockwise to lower it. Use a flat blade screwdriver.

NOTE: When leveling, you can improve door closure by raising the
front as much as 15 mm more than the rear of the refrigerator.

To replace base grille, align prongs on back of grille with clamps in
cabinet and push forward until grille snaps into place.

Water Supply to Icemaker   

(on some models)

If your refrigerator has an icemaker, or if you plan to add an 
icemaker later, the icemaker will have to be connected to a cold
drinking (potable) water line.

A water supply kit containing copper tubing, shutoff valve, fittings
and instructions is available at extra cost from your dealer. There
should be sufficient tubing from the cold water supply to the 
icemaker inlet to allow moving the refrigerator out from the wall
several feet (approximately 2.5 m of 1/4

²

copper tubing in three 

25 cm diameter coils).

Do not use kits with plastic tubing since there is water pressure in the
supply line at all times.

Maximum permissible inlet water pressure—8.3 bars.

Minimum permissible inlet water pressure—1.4 bars.

Installation of icemaker must be made by a qualified service technician.
