Location & Air Circulation

 

100mm

WARNING: This appliance must not be installed in a

 

(4 inches)

 

location where the room temperature drops below 10oC,

 

 

or exceeds 32oC, for prolonged periods. This is because

 

 

correct storage temperatures will not be maintained.

 

 

Locate your fridge freezer away from sources of heat e.g.

 

 

cookers, radiators, direct sunlight as extreme temperature

 

 

will affect its performance.

 

 

Allow a minimum 100mm (4 inches) between the top of

 

 

the fridge freezer and the ceiling or the underside of a

 

 

wall cupboard.

 

 

Providing you follow the recommended ventilation

 

 

requirements you will :-

 

 

Prolong the life of the fridge freezer.

 

 

Minimise the risk of condensation on the outside of

 

 

the fridge freezer.

 

 

Minimise the running costs.

 

 

Minimise operating sounds caused by vibration.

 

 

Minimum space required to open door

The fridge freezer needs a space of 600mm (24 inches) in front to allow the door to open.

When positioning the fridge freezer next to a unit, a gap of 30mm (11/4 inch) can be left at the hinge side of the door to allow the easy removal of furniture. If preferred the fridge freezer can be positioned so that a gap is not left. This will restrict how far the door can be opened but the furniture can still be removed (see diagrams below). The door hinge side can be changed to make it easier to open (see ‘Door Reversal’ in the CLEANING & MAINTENANCE section).
