INSTALLATION
Location and Air Circulation
When selecting a position for your appliance, you should make sure the floor is
flat and firm and the room is well ventilated with an average room temperature
of between 16°C and 38°C. If the room temperature drops below this, your
fridge may stop working properly.
Locate the appliance away from sources of heat e.g cookers, radiators, direct
sunlight as extreme temperatures will effect how efficiently it works.
Also avoid direct sunlight as it may increase the electrical consumption, extreme
cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit to not perform properly. The
appliance is not designed for use in a garage or outdoor installation; do not drape
the unit with a covering.
Never place the unit in a wall recess or fitted cabinets or furniture as this will
not allow adequate ventilation and cause a potential fire hazard. When installing
the unit, ensure that 20mm of free space is left at both sides, 20mm at the rear
and 30mm at the top of the unit. This will allow cold air to circulate around and
improve efficiency of the cooling process.
Providing you follow the recommended ventilation requirements you will:
• Increase the life of the appliance.
• Minimise the risk of condensation on the outside of the appliance.
• Minimise the running costs.
• Minimise operating noises caused by vibration.
Levelling
Once the appliance is positioned in its final location, it can be leveled using the
adjustable feet at the front of the unit until they are firmly placed on the floor.
Correctly levelling the unit will stop any rocking or vibration and keep the door
aligned, which helps the fridge run reliably and efficiently.
