surrounding cupboards to see if it is level. You can adjust
the level as detailed in step 2 and 3.

cupboards
ie. even gap
5. If you find your refrigerator rocks from corner to corner, it
means your floor is uneven. Find a piece of plastic or
hardboard etc. and pack it firmly under the roller.
6. You may now need to fine-tune the installation by
repeating steps 3, 4 and 5.
7. When you have the appliance in its final position, it needs
to be stabilised. Wind the stability foot under the door
hinge down to the floor until it just makes contact with
the floor. Lift the front of the appliance to take the weight
off the stability foot, then turn it half a turn further to
ensure firm contact with the floor. Wind the large height
adjusting nut back up to ensure all the weight is now on
the front stability foot. Wind the large height adjusting nut
back up to ensure all the weight is now on the front
stability foot.
8. Repeat step 7 for the stability foot on the handle side.
Whenever you need to move the appliance, be sure to
wind the feet back up so that the appliance can roll freely
and be sure to reset it when reinstalling.

ICE AND WATER INSTALLATION

WARNING
Connect to potable water supply only. If using tank or bore
water it is recommended to also use an external filter (not
supplied).
The new hose-sets supplied with the appliances must be
used and old hose-sets should not be reused.
Never connect the appliance to a hot water supply.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or
with water of unknown quality without adequate
disinfection.

Water Filter

It should not be used on water that is micro biologically
unsafe or with water of unknown quality. The service life of
the filter may be reduced in water supplies that contain an
excess of particles or other impurities. Reduced flow rate is
an indication that a new filter is required. Failure to replace
the filter when required can affect the function of the ice
maker. Service calls caused by a failure to replace the filter
are not covered by warranty. Replacement water filters are
available from Electrolux Home Products Spare Parts Centres
and can be posted to you for your convenience (refer to
spare parts contact numbers on the warranty page).

Water supply and plumbing
A drinkable water supply to suit a 1/2" tap fitting is required
adjacent to the refrigerator. It is recommended that a
licensed plumber install a new water supply outlet nearer to
the appliance should the tubing supplied not be long enough.
It is not recommended that the tubing be extended as this
could adversely affect the flow of water to the ice maker or
water dispenser. If there is a risk of flow rate higher than the
maximum flow rate 2.46 L/min, a flow controller should be
installed. The water dispenser and automatic ice maker
require a drinkable water supply with a pressure range of
between 206kPa and 689kPa (30psi and 100psi). If the water
supply is above 100psi a pressure limiting valve should be
installed.
It is recommended that a noise reduction valve also be fitted
in the water supply line. This will reduce water hammer and
its effects from quick action household taps and fast acting
valves on appliances.
The refrigerator water valve is pre-fitted with a push-fit
connector for inserting the water tube. When the tap
connection is other than 1/2", adapters can be purchased
from plumbing supply stores or good hardware stores.
