INSTALLATION
1.1
Location
When selecting a position 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. stove, boiler or radiator.
Also avoid direct sunlight as it may increase the electrical consumption. Extremely 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, be sure that 7¾ in. of free space is left at both sides, 7¾ in. at the rear
and 12 in. at the top of the unit. This will allow cold air to circulate around the appliance and
improve the efficiency of the cooling process.
1.2
Reversing the Door Swing
Tools Required:
Phillips screwdriver / Flat-bladed screwdriver / Hexagonal wrench
◆
If you want to have the door swing reversed, we recommend that you contact a
qualified technician. You should only try to reverse the door yourself if you believe that
you are qualified to do so.
◆
Ensure the unit is unplugged and empty.
◆
Adjust the two leveling feet to their highest position.
◆
To take the door off it is necessary to tilt the unit backwards. You should rest the unit on
something solid so that it will not slip during the door reversing process.
◆
All parts removed must be saved for the reinstallation of the door.
◆
Do not lay the unit flat as this may damage the coolant system.
◆
We recommend that 2 people handle the unit during assembly.
1)
Remove the hinge cover. Unscrew and
remove the top hinge.
2)
Lift the freezer door up and away from
the appliance.
