WARNING!

Electric Shock Hazard

Read and follow the SAFETY AND WARNINGS outlined in this User Guide before operating this appliance, pages 3 – 4.

Failure to do so can result in death, electric shock, fire or injury to persons.

Location

Do not install refrigerator near an oven, radiator or other heat source. If not possible, shield refrigerator with ­cabinet material.

Do not install where temperature falls below 13˚C or rises above 43˚C. Malfunction may occur at these temperatures.

The refrigerator is designed for indoor household application only.

Measuring the opening

When installing your refrigerator, allow 13 mm space at the top and 13 mm space behind machine compartment cover (located in the rear) for proper air circulation. If the refrigerator is placed with the door hinges against a wall, you may want to allow additional space so the door can be opened wider.

Subflooring or floor coverings (ie carpet, tile, wood floors, rugs) may make your opening smaller than anticipated.

Some clearance may be gained by using the levelling procedure under ‘Levelling’, page 8.

Important!

If refrigerator is to be installed into a recess where the top of the refrigerator is completely covered, use dimensions from floor to top of hinge cap to verify proper clearance.

Transporting your refrigerator

NEVER transport refrigerator on its side. If an upright position is not possible, lay refrigerator on its back. Allow refrigerator to sit upright for approximately 30 minutes before plugging it in. This will ensure oil returns to the compressor. Plugging refrigerator in immediately may cause damage to internal parts.

Use an appliance dolly/trolley when moving refrigerator. ALWAYS truck refrigerator from its side or back – NEVER from its front.

Protect the outside finish of the refrigerator during transport by wrapping the cabinet in blankets or inserting padding between the refrigerator and dolly.

Secure refrigerator to dolly firmly with straps or bungee cords. Thread straps through handles where and when possible. Do not over-tighten. Over-­tightening restraints may dent or damage the outside finish.
