two pipes to the matching ones at the bottom of the
appliance, being careful to connect like colours with like:
- white-white: water
- blue-blue: ice.

POSITIONING AND LEVELLING YOUR
REFRIGERATOR
If the appliance seems unsteady or you want the doors to
close more easily, adjust the appliance's tilt following the
instructions below (depending on
the model, as shown in the
figures on the right).
The refrigerator has two front
and two rear wheels at the base
of the product on each side and
two adjustable feet at the front
(see
figure A
).
1.
Check the installation location to be sure you have at
least 1 cm clearance on all sides including the top.
2.
Connect the appliance to the mains power supply.
3.
Move the refrigerator into its final position.
4.
Open both doors and remove
the plinth to locate the feet
and levelling bolts at the left
and right of the refrigerator
base (where present). The top
bolt
(1)
will adjust the rear
wheel (if provided), and the
bottom bolt
(2)
will adjust the
front wheel (see
figure B
).
5.
Use the wrench provided (if present) to adjust the
levelling bolts. Turn clockwise to raise the appliance, or
anticlockwise to lower it. It may take several turns of
the levelling bolts and/or feet to adjust the tilt of the
refrigerator.
6.
After levelling the product, ensure that both feet touch
the ground for safe use.
Note: do not unscrew the levelling bolts and feet
too much as they could fall out.
Aligning the doors
If, after switching on the appliance and adjusting the
refrigerator and freezer doors, the doors are misaligned,
disconnect the appliance from the power supply and
adjust both doors as indicated in the diagram at the end
of this manual.
