Installation

WARNING: THE APPLIANCE SHOULD ONLY BE INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED PERSONNEL IN COMPLIANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS, CURRENT STANDARDS AND REGULATIONS.

Before Fitting:

Please read through this section before starting any work.

Choosing a Location:

Do not install your appliance in a room where the temperature goes below 5˚C, this will affect the appliances performance.

The power socket should be in a readily accessible position, adjacent to the appliance. DO NOT connect to the electricity supply until all installation is complete.

Place the appliance in a dry and regularly ventilated room.

Never place the appliance near heat emitting devices (eg. cooker, radiator, water heater or similar devices) and do not expose it to direct sunlight. In such a position your appliance will have to work harder and will cost more to run and could be damaged by the heat.

Ensure that you provide adequate air circulation around the appliance, to prevent condensation.

Leave at least 300mm free space above and 50mm or more from the wall.

Also, the appliance should be elevated 25mm from the floor, especially if it is carpeted.

Providing you follow the recommended ventilation requirements you will:

*Prolong the life of your appliance.

*Minimise the risk of condensation on the outside of the appliance.

*Minimise the running costs.

*Minimise operating sounds caused by vibration.

Door Removal:

If your access door is too narrow for the appliance to pass through, you will need to remove both doors - pass the appliance through the access door, in its upright position - then refit the doors on the other side (see Door Removal instructions - pages 6 & 7).

Water Supply:

Your appliance has an ice maker and cool water dispenser function and therefore needs to be connected to a cold water supply before use (see Feed Water Tube / Plumbing Installation instructions - page 8 and 9).

Levelling

Level both doors by adjusting the left and right hand height adjusting screws.

With the doors aligned they will close correctly and this helps the appliance to run efficiently (see Height Adjustment instructions - page 10)
