a rear gap of minimum 100 (Y), recommended clearance
at the top of the refrigerator are as follows: If gap (Y) is not
a minimum 100mm, then gap (Z) increases from 50mm to

Installing your refrigerator

Your refrigerator should be levelled using front adjustable
stability feet ensuring it does not rock.
The rollers are designed for forward or backward
movement only. They are not castors. Moving the
refrigerator sideways may damage your floor and the
rollers. Before moving the refrigerator, wind up the two
front adjustable stability feet.

WARNING
CAUTION
Roll the refrigerator into place.
The top of the refrigerator should be tilted back by
10mm (see diagram on below). This will allow the
doors to self-close providing a consistent door seal.
If the refrigerator isn't tilted back, you can adjust
the two front stability feet (see diagram above). If
you have difficulty turning the stability feet, have
someone tilt the refrigerator back, so you have
better access.
