SAFETY

Levelling:

Level the fridge freezer when it is in its final location by adjusting the front feet, until firm contact is made with the floor. This will stop rocking or vibration and keep the doors aligned which helps the fridge freezer run reliably and efficiently.

Note: Before plugging in and switching on, leave the fridge freezer standing in its final location for at least 15 minutes to allow it to settle.

WARNING: Failure to level the appliance correctly may result in misalignment of the cabinet and/or doors.

Bottle Retainer (not applicable to all models):

To fit the bottle rack retainer:

Locate the retainer groove at one end of the bottle rack and then gradually press down along the top edge until the retainer is fully in the home position.

Defrost Tube:

A tube is supplied to help feed defrost water into a collecting vessel, ie. a bowl (see ‘Defrosting’ in the CLEANING & MAINTENANCE section).

For safe keeping until required, the tube can be stored in the floor of the freezer compartment.
