product in the forwards and backwards direction.
Avoid moving the product in a sideways direction
as this may damage the rollers or the floor
covering/surface.
Your refrigerator will arrive with the front feet wound
A
up making moving the product into its final location a

there is the correct air gap between the product and
surrounding cabinetry. See minimum clearance in
cabinetry dimensions table (refer to page 7).
