Protection from Moisture
Avoiding placing the refrigerator in a place where heavy

of metal parts. The refrigerator should be kept out of
water or direct sprayed water, failure to do this could
cause poor performance and/or an electrical short could
occur.
Protection from Heat
The refrigerator should be protected from excessive heat
sources and out of direct sunlight as this may affect the
cooling performance.
Protect from Cold
The bar fridge should be protected from excessive
cold weather and frosts. Suggested minimum ambient
temperature should ideally be higher than 5°C, so that
optimal performance is not affected.
If ambient temperature is likely to drop below 5°C and the
bar fridge is not built in cover the top and side of the bar
fridge with a blanket, leave the rear and front uncovered.
Moving

horizontally or reclined to more than 45° or positioned
upside down.

operating.
Once you have moved the refrigerator, leave standing in
a level position for 4 - 6 hours so that the compressor oil
can settle.
• Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance
enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear of
obstruction. Do not use mechanical devices or
other means to accelerate the defrosting process.
• Do not use electrical appliance inside the food
storage compartments of the appliance.
Positioning
Ensure the sides and top have at least 10mm clearance
and the rear at least 50mm clearance to ensure adequate
ventilation and to allow ease of positioning.
Never cover the bottom front grill as this is required for
ventilation.
After installation the appliance should be left for 4 - 6
hours before it is plugged in and switched on this is to
allow the compressor oil to settle.
