Important safety instructions

electrolux refrigeration important safety instructions 1

warning

The appliance must be plugged into its own
dedicated 220-240V, 50Hz AC electrical outlet.

Ensure that the electric outlet is properly earthed
to ground. Consult a qualified electrician if you are
unsure.

Do not use an extension cord or adapter plug.

If the power cord is damaged, it should be replaced
by a service technician or a qualified person.

Unplug the appliance before cleaning and before
changing the light bulb to avoid electric shock.

Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the power
cord. Always grip the plug firmly, and pull straight
out of the receptacle to prevent damaging the power
cord.

Choose a location that is not too cold - the
temperature should be above 10°C.

Put the appliance in a dry place, avoiding areas of
high moisture or humidity.

Don’t put the appliance in frosty or unprotected
areas, for example in a garage or on a verandah.

Don’t put the appliance in direct sunlight.

Don’t put the appliance near stoves, fires or heaters.

When correctly installed, your appliance should:

• have adequate clearance to the back and sides for air
circulation (refer to page 2).

• be aligned to the surrounding cupboards.

• have doors that will self-close from a partially open
position.

warning

• Have the stability foot in place (see diagram on page 2)
to prevent the appliance falling forward when a door
with heavy food load is opened.

2 installing your new appliance electrolux refrigeration

Clearance around your appliance

If you do not have a cupboard with a rear gap, the
recommended clearance area on top increases from 50mm
to 90mm (x) and from 32mm to 72mm (y).
When positioned in a corner area, spacing of at least 350mm
(400mm for E:Line models) on the hinge side will allow the doors
to open enough to enable the removal of bins and shelves.

Note:
Doors are designed to sit proud of cabinetry (not flush).
The clearances shown above are the recommended
minimum clearances. The clearance at the rear must not
exceed 75mm.

Installing your appliance

The appliance should arrive with the front adjustable
rollers wound down to tilt the top of the appliance
backwards by about 10-15mm from upright.

The stability foot should also be wound fully up so it will not
interfere with the operation of the rollers (see diagram in Step 3).

caution

The rollers are designed for forward or backward
movement only. They are not castors. Moving the
appliance sideways may damage your floor and
the rollers.

1. Roll the appliance into its final position.

2. The top of the appliance should be tilted back by
approximately 10-15mm (see diagram above). This will allow
the doors to self-close providing a consistent door seal.

3. If the appliance is not tilted back, you can adjust the
two front rollers by turning the large, plastic roller nut
(see diagram below). This will increase the height of the
rollers. One turn of the nut will tilt the appliance back
approximately 10mm. If you have difficulty turning the
roller nut you can have someone tilt the appliance back,
so that you have better access. Alternatively, you can
access the rollers from the side, using a flat screwdriver
to help you turn the nut (see diagram below).

4. Check the alignment of the appliance to the surrounding
cupboards. The top of the appliance should be level
from side to side (see diagram below). If you need to
adjust the level, use the adjustable rollers as discussed
in Step 3.

5. If the appliance now rocks from one corner to the
opposite rear corner, this means that the floor is
uneven; you will need to put some packing under one
of the rear rollers.You could use thin pieces of solid
material, such as thin board, vinyl floor tiles or laminate.
Place the packing so that it will sit under one of the rear
rollers when the appliance is rolled into position.

6. On certain floor surfaces the appliance may roll forward
during operation. Where provided a “Roller Stop” can
be placed under the front rollers.

7. You may now need to fine-tune the installation by
repeating Steps 3, 4 and 5.

8. When you have the appliance in final position, wind the
stability foot down until it just makes contact with the
floor. Whenever you need to move the appliance,

be sure to wind the foot back up so that the
appliance can roll freely.

9. Clean your appliance thoroughly following the
instructions on page 10 and wipe off any dust that has
accumulated during shipping.

10. Plug the appliance into the power point. Don’t use a
double adaptor. If you need to roll the appliance out

to get at the power point, remember to raise the
stability foot before you do so.

11. We recommend that you let your appliance run for two
to three hours before you put any food in it. This will
allow you to check that it is operating properly.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed your
new appliance.
