Transporting
→
Keep the refrigerator upright and avoid squeezing or vibration during
transport. Avoid a slanting angle over 45 degrees during handling. Avoid
the door or top cap from being under excessive stress when moving,
otherwise it may become deformed.
Caution
Do not connect your refrigerator to the power supply immediately after it
is placed vertically. You should keep it standing for at least 3 hours before
connection to let it settle.
Installation
→
Remove all packaging material and adhesive tape before using your new
refrigerator. This includes the foam base and all adhesive tape holding the
refrigerator accessories inside and outside.
→
Clean both the inside and outside of the refrigerator with a soft cloth and
lukewarm soapy water.
POSITIONING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
→
Place your refrigerator in a well ventilated area away from a heat source
and direct sunlight.
→
Do not install the refrigerator in a damp or wet location as this may cause
damage to the insulation and result in leakage. Condensation may also
build up on the outer cabinet causing rust.
→
Use the front two adjustable feet to level the refrigerator. Rotate the feet
in a clockwise direction to raise the refrigerator and anti-clockwise to
lower. Ensure the refrigerator slightly tilts backwards so that the drawers
and doors self-close to provide a consistent closed seal.
→
There should be a clearance of at least 300mm from the top of your
refrigerator, and 50mm from either the sides of the refrigerator (or) the
back of the unit. If the refrigerator is to sit flush with the cabinetry, then
a 50mm clearance must be available to allow the doors to open freely
and enable the removal of bins and shelves. The minimum clearance
recommended at each side is 5mm, if this is the case the doors must sit
proud of the cabinetry by 50mm (not flush). A 5mm side clearance will
require 50mm of airspace at the back of the unit to allow for adequate
ventilation.
Caution
Allow for adequate ventilation around your refrigerator.
