Installing Your New Appliance - Electrolux S85528KG1 User Manual

Installing your new appliance

Adequate ventilation around your refrigerator.
The diagram below shows the recommended airspace to
allow for ventilation of your refrigerator. If you don't have
a cupboard with a rear gap, the recommended clearance
area on top increases from 50mm to 90mm (y) and from
35mm to 75mm (x). When positioned in a corner area,
spacing of at least 350mm on the hinge side will allow the
doors to open enough to enable the removal of bins
and shelves.

NOTE:
Doors are designed to sit proud of
cabinetry (not fl ush). The clearances shown
above are the recommended minimum clearances.
The clearance at the rear must not exceed 75mm.
Installing your refrigerator
Your new refrigerator should arrive with the front adjustable
rollers wound down, to tilt the top backwards by about
10mm from upright. This will allow your refrigerator door to
self-close, providing a consistent closed seal.

front rollers
The stability foot should also be wound fully up so it will not
interfere with the operation of the rollers (see diagram in
Step 3).

caution
The rollers are designed for forward or backward movement
only. They are not castors. Moving the refrigerator sideways
may damage your fl oor and the rollers.
1. Roll the refrigerator into place.
2. The top of the refrigerator should be tilted back by
10mm. This will allow the doors to self-close providing a
consistent door seal.
3. If the refrigerator isn't tilted back, you can adjust the two
front rollers by turning the large, plastic roller nut. One
turn of the nut increases the height of the refrigerator by
10mm. If you have diffi culty turning the roller nut, have
someone tilt the refrigerator back, so you have better
access. Alternatively, you can access the rollers from the
side, using a fl at screwdriver. (See diagram below).

4. Check the alignment of the refrigerator to the
surrounding cupboards to see if it is level. You can
adjust the level with the rollers as detailed in step 3.

cupboards
ie. even gap
5. If you fi nd your refrigerator rocks from corner to corner,
it means your fl oor is uneven. Find a piece of plastic or
hardboard etc. and pack it fi rmly under the roller.
6. On certain fl oor surfaces the refrigerator may roll
forward during operation. If this occurs a "roller stop" or
wedge can be placed under the front rollers.
7. You may now need to fi ne-tune the installation by
repeating Steps 3, 4 and 5.
