caution

Automatic aerosol systems (such as insect conrtol) should not be located adjacent to the product as the spray may cause long term damage to the external plastics of the appliance.

Clearances around your refrigerator

Your Side by Side Refrigerator can be installed between cupboards or fixtures but you must allow for the following spaces around the cabinet.

•allow a minimum of 5 millimetres clearance on both sides (refer to diagram 1).

•allow a minimum of 10 millimetres clearance above hinge covers (refer to diagram 1).

•allow a minimum of 50 millimetres at the back of the refrigerator (refer to diagram 1).

The refrigerator should arrive with the front rollers wound down.

We recommend that the refrigerator be tilted backwards by about 10 to 15 millimetres, this will allow

the doors to self close providing a consistent door seal. To do this follow the instructions below.

When you want to install your	Height adjustable	Fixed rear
refrigerator, take the	front rollers	rollers
following steps.

1. Roll the refrigerator into it’s final position.

warning

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

2.If the refrigerator is not tilted back you can adjust the two front rollers by adjusting the large plastic roller nut (refer page 7). You may need two people, one to adjust rollers and one to tilt the refrigerator slightly back to take the weight of the appliance off the front rollers.

This will increase or decrease the height of the rollers. One turn of the nut will change the tilt of the refrigerator by approximately 10mm.

3.If the cabinet is level, then the side walls should be plumb or vertical. If the cabinet is built in or partly built in check the alignment of the cabinet side against the cupboard.

aligned to cupboard – even gap

Top of refrigerator is level – horizontal

Adjust front rollers for unevenness of floor.

eg. adjust this roller down. Packing may be required underneath the rear roller to ensure stability.

4.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.

5.You may now need to fine-tune the installation by adjusting the front rollers once again.

Adjusting door alignment

Each door is independently adjustable in the vertical direction by turning the adjustable bolts under the hinges using the spanner provided.

Adjusting Bolt

Front Roller

Large plastic roller nut

The doors can be adjusted up or down. Depending on the amount of adjustment required it may be sufficient to adjust only one door. (see Diagrams below)

Note: When the height of the rollers and adjusting bolts are correctly adjusted the refrigerator will stand firmly on the floor and the doors will be in line with one another.

Ice and water models

The water connection to your ice and water product should only be done by a licensed refrigeration mechanic, plumber or

electrician. All relevant information regarding the water connection is detailed in the water kit provided with your product for use by the professional installer only.

The automatic ice and water dispenser needs a drinkable water supply with a pressure of:

•minimum 206 kPa (30 psi, 2.11 kgf/cm2)

•maximum 689 kPa (100 psi, 7.04 kgf/cm2)

In some areas water pressure is significantly higher due to local conditions. In such areas a pressure reducing valve must be used. Ensure your plumber or installer checks your local water pressure when installing your refrigerator.

If you are using your refrigerator for the first time, or if you have not used the dispenser for some time:

•discard the first seven or eight cups of water

•discard any ice that the ice maker produces in the

first 24 hours (contaminants could have settled in the water pipes)

(see page 14 for more information)

The water tap can be anywhere and there is no limit to the amount of pipe between the tap and the refrigerator, however some points to note are:

1.It is better to have the tap accessible without having to roll the refrigerator forward, so we recommend putting it outside the cavity as shown by the taps in the diagram below.

2.It is recommended, but not essential that the height of the tap should be 400mm from the ground.

3.If the refrigerator is required to be pulled forward for cleaning, the water pipe may need to be removed from the tap.

Internal packaging

Please remove any internal packaging material before use.

There may be a strip of foam taped to the door bins. There will also be tape applied to several parts such as the locker.

There may be a sheet of protective film attached to the multi-flow duct at the rear of the refrigerator section, please remove this prior to operation as it may obstruct airflow. Protective film may also be on the display fitted to the control housing.

Please remove all internal packaging before use. Any glue or tape residue or the like should be removed with a solution of mild detergent and water.

Ice maker start-up

caution

The water connection to your ice and water product should only be done by a licensed refrigeration mechanic, plumber or electrician.

If the ice maker is not connected to a water supply, check that the ice maker is turned off. To do this remove the ice cream shelf and put the switch in the ‘OFF’ position. If you don’t do this a loud buzzing noise will be heard intermittently if the icemaker is on but no water is being supplied.

If the ice maker is connected to a water supply, check that the ice maker is turned on. To do this put the switch in the ‘ON’ position.

Initial start-up

Refrigerator/freezer operation

It is normal for the rear, sides and centre mullion of the refrigerator to feel warm.

These areas are warm because the refrigerator transfers heat from food placed inside the refrigerator to the outside air.

There is a cooling coil located behind the rear wall of the freezer section. This coil cools and removes moisture from the air. A fan at the rear of the freezer section then circulates cold, dry air throughout the refrigerator.

This forced air circulation means that foods are refrigerated far more quickly than in refrigerators where there is less air circulation. Avoid placing food against air outlets as this will affect air circulation.

A light frosting will occasionally appear on the interior of the freezer if the freezer door is opened frequently. This is normal and will disappear after a few days in most climates.

Make sure you fully close the freezer and fresh food doors after you load or remove food from these compartments. If the doors are left partly open, a heavy frost will coat the inside of the freezer. If a frost develops, remove it. Take care to properly close the doors and the frost will not reoccur.

tips and information

Your new energy efficient refrigerator uses a variable speed compressor and other efficient components that may produce different noises to your old refrigerator. These sounds are normal and include:

•compressor running noise

•air movement noise from the small fan motor

•occasional gurgling, similar to water boiling

•a popping noise, heard during automatic defrosting

•a clicking noise, just prior to the compressor starting up

•a motorised air baffle used to adjust airflow

These noises are normal and are no cause for alarm. (further details can be found on page 19)

tips and information

Temperature sensors

Avoid loading food against your freezer temperature sensor.

Doing so may adversely affect freezer temperatures. If warm food is inadvertently loaded against the sensor, it may also set off the freezer temperature alarm up to 50 minutes after the food is loaded against the sensor (see Diagrams below).

Electronic display panel

Ice and water models

Electronic display panel

The electronic display panel consists of an LCD display with white backlighting and 6 push buttons. When the power is first turned on, you will see the default settings, with the white backlighting.

If no buttons have been pressed and the fridge door is closed the backlighting will turn off after 30 seconds.

Note: The Electronic Display Panel varies according to the model of refrigerator purchased. The above and following diagrams are only representative of the different types of panels available. Not all models will have all features listed.

NOTE: If no buttons have been pressed for approximately 60 seconds, there may be a delay of up to 2 seconds before the display reacts. This is normal and is to prevent accidental changes to settings.

Setting the clock – ice and water models only

1.Press and hold the clock button down for two seconds. Hours and minutes will then appear on the display.

2.Press the fast freeze button to advance the hours. (Hold the button down for continuous and fast advance).

3.Press the eco/vacation button to advance the minutes. (Hold the button down for continuous and fast advance).

10 electrolux side by side refrigeration user manual

4.The clock can be switched between 24 hour or 12 hour formats by pressing the drinks chill button. In 12 hour format the indicator will switch between am and pm accordingly (see diagram below).

5.Once the time has been set press the clock button to save the setting.

Controlling the temperature

We recommend that when you start your refrigerator for the first time, the temperature for the refrigerator is set to 3°C and the freezer to -18°C. If you want to change the temperatures, use the instructions below. You should make only small adjustments and wait 24 hours to see whether you need to make further changes.

tips and information

When you set a temperature, you set an average temperature for the whole appliance cabinet. Temperatures inside each compartment may vary, depending on how much food you store and where you place it. High or low room temperature may also affect the actual temperature inside the appliance.

Changing the freezer temperature

Press the freezer button to make the freezer colder in

1°C steps. Once -23°C is reached the display will return to -14°C with the next button press. You’ll notice that the bar graph gets smaller with colder freezer settings. If you set –14ºC, the bar graph will flash continuously to warn that it

is not cold enough for long term storage of frozen food.

Changing the refrigerator temperature

Press the fridge button to make the fridge colder in 1°C steps. Once 0°C is reached the display will return to 7°C with the next button press. The bar graph gets smaller with colder settings.

Fast freeze (quick chill) function

Use the fast freeze (quick chill) function when you add a large amount of food to the freezer compartment. This freezes the food quickly but does not affect the temperature in the refrigerator compartment.

To use this function, press the fast freeze (quick chill) button once. An animated icon will light up. The fast freeze (quick chill) function will now operate for 90 minutes. If you want to turn the fast freeze (quick chill) function off before 90 minutes have passed, simply press the fast freeze (quick chill) button again. The icon will disappear and the freezer will return to normal operation.

Freezer temperature alarm

If the freezer becomes too warm a buzzer will sound.

The icon adjacent to the alarm reset button (on non-ice and water models) or above the alarm reset button (on ice and water models), the freezer set temperature and the bar graph

will all flash until the alarm reset button is pressed. Once pressed, the alarm disable icon will illuminate for 50 minutes, or until the temperature reaches an acceptable level.

Make sure nothing is holding the freezer door open and move any warm food away from the temperature sensor (see diagrams on page 9).

If the freezer is still too warm after 50 minutes the alarm will sound again, indicating that something may be wrong with your appliance.

Note: The freezer temperature alarm can be reset for 12 hours by pressing the alarm reset button continuously for 10 seconds.

Door alarm

If the refrigerator door is left open for longer than 2 minutes a buzzer will sound and an arrow pointing to an open door will flash. The refrigerator temperature settings and bar graph will also flash.

If you want to leave the door open while you load the fridge, you can turn the alarm off for 8 minutes by pressing the alarm reset button.

If the alarm is sounding for no apparent reason, check whether anything is holding the door open. Closing the door resets the alarm for a further 2 minutes.

Drinks chill timer

If you set the drinks chill timer it will sound an alarm to remind you that you have left drinks in your freezer for quick chilling.

To use the timer, press the drinks chill button once to set a 5 minute time limit, twice for 10 minutes and up to 6 times for a 30 minute time limit. Press 7 times to turn the timer off.

Suggested chilling times:

•10 minutes for cans of drink

•20 minutes for bottles of wine

•30 minutes for bottles of soft drink

When you press the drinks chill button, an animated icon will appear beside the drinks chill button with a countdown timer. The timer will count down in 1 minute increments; you can change the time or turn the timer off even after the countdown has started. When the countdown is finished a buzzer will sound and the icon beside the alarm will flash until the alarm reset button is pressed.

To stop the alarm and turn off the drinks chill timer, press the Alarm reset button. If your drink is chilled, take it out of the freezer. If it is not cold enough, reset the drinks chill function (remembering that the drink is already partially chilled).

Child lock

To activate the child lock, press the cubed/crushed and lamp on/off buttons for 2 seconds together. This will disable the display to prevent accidentalchangestosettings.Thekeyiconwillappearontheelectronic displaywhenchildlockisactivated.Toturnoffthechildlockpressand holdcubed/crushedandlampon/offbuttonsfor2secondstogether.

caution

Eco mode is designed to operate with minimum door opening

(e.g. if used as a long term storage fridge). If turned on manually, it won’t switch off automatically and frequent door opening in eco mode could lead to food spoilage. If frequent door opening is likely to occur switch back to normal mode.

•Vacation (holiday) mode

Vacation mode is suitable if you will be away from your appliance for an extended period, take advantage of maximum energy efficiency by pressing press the eco/vacation button twice in succession just before you leave (do this while in normal mode). The appliance will then enter vacation mode, as indicated by the aeroplane symbol. Press eco/vacation button again to cycle between ‘normal’, ‘eco’ and ‘vacation’ modes. (If in eco mode a single button press is all that is required to enter vacation mode).

Vacation mode is exited automatically once the refrigerator door is opened and normal mode resumes.

Energy efficiency

Your appliance has been designed with energy efficiency in mind and can operate in any of three modes (normal, eco, vacation), depending on the level of efficiency sought.

•Normal mode

This is the mode which is entered automatically when the appliance is first turned on. Normal mode is the mode most suitable when the refrigerator door is opened often.

•Eco mode

Eco mode is a more efficient mode than normal mode and can be entered in two ways. Either by manually pressing the eco/ vacation button once when in normal mode, or automatically after 30 hours if the refrigerator door has not been opened. The leaf icon will appear on the electronic display when eco mode is activated. If eco mode is entered automatically, the appliance will revert to normal mode once the refrigerator door is opened. If eco mode is entered manually, door openings will not cause the display to revert to normal mode. To exit eco mode, press the eco/vacation button twice (or until there are no icons displayed).

environmental tip

Eco and vacation modes minimise defrosting to save energy, while maintaining your temperature settings.

Note: Opening the freezer door has no effect on the operation of Eco and Vacation Modes

Other electronic features

Other Ice and Water functions are also controlled via the display panel, these include cube and crushed ice, and turning the dispenser light on and off. Both of these functions are detailed later in this manual (refer page 14).

Your refrigerator:

•controls the compressor and fan independently to provide the best performance

•provides extra cooling depending on the number of door openings

•automatically defrosts during periods when the door is not being opened frequently

tips and information

If you find that the display malfunctions, this may be due to brief power supply interruptions. If this is the problem, you simply need to turn the refrigerator off at the power point and wait 5 minutes, then turn the refrigerator on again at the power point.

How the water dispenser works

After the refrigerator is connected to the water supply, fill the water tank by holding a glass against the dispenser paddle.

You may need to hold the glass against the paddle for up to 2 minutes before water begins to flow. Continue to draw water for a further 3 minutes to rid the tank and plumbing connections of any impurities, the tank will automatically refill as you dispense water.

caution

Remember, do not drink this water as it may have impurities in it!

tips and information

The water connection to your ice and water product should only be done by a licensed refrigeration mechanic, plumber or electrician.

The water dispenser water tank is located behind the upper crisper bin in the refrigerator compartment.

Normal Operation – For cool water, add ice.

To provide the convenience of filtered water in the same location as the ice dispenser, it is necessary to route the tubes from the refrigerator compartment. This means the first half glass of water will not be quite as cold as the following 3 or 4 glasses. If you require cool water from the first glass, we recommend that you first add crushed or cubed ice to your glass then the water.

In times of high use, water may be dispensed before it has time to cool. Once this occurs, the dispensed water temperature will be similar to that of your normal tap water until the tank has had a chance to cool. The addition of cubed or crushed ice will allow you to still enjoy cool water should this occur.

caution

Chemicals from a malfunctioning softener can damage the ice maker. If the ice maker is connected to soft water,

ensure that the softener is maintained and working properly.

How the ice dispenser works

The ice maker and ice container are located in the top of the freezer compartment. After the refrigerator is installed properly and has cooled for several hours, the ice maker can begin making ice and the first batch will be ready within 24 hours. A full tray of ice may not be created for the first few batches, due to air in the refrigerator’s new plumbing lines.

To begin ice production pull out the icecream shelf and switch to the ON position (“I”) then replace shelf. If no ice is dispensed it will take about 2 days to fill the storage container. The ice maker turns off automatically when the ice container is full. To stop ice production, turn the switch to the OFF position (“O”) (See diagrams on page 4). The first batches of ice cubes may be discoloured or have an odd flavour, due to the refrigerator’s new plumbing connections. Discard this ice until batches are free of discolouration or taste problems.

electrolux side by side refrigeration user manual 15

tips and information

warning

•Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavour. Remove the ice container and discard the ice cubes. When replacing the tray, ensure that the wire signal arm (see diagram bottom left) sits within the ice cube container. The ice maker will then start producing ice.

•Occasionally shake the ice container to keep ice separated.

•After you take delivery of the refrigerator, keep the ice maker switch in the “OFF” position until the refrigerator is connected to the water supply. The switch should also be kept in the “OFF” position whenever the water supply is turned off.

Do not use the ice chute as a handle when removing or replacing the ice storage bin. Do not put fingers up ice chute. Surfaces there may be sharp.

caution

If the dispensing paddle is pushed for more than

4 minutes, the dispenser motor may overload and stop. The overload protector will reset automatically after 3 or 4 minutes.

•If a large quantity of ice is needed at one time, it is best to remove cubes directly from the ice cube container

•When the ice maker is operating, it is normal to hear the sound of:

–the motor running.

–ice dropping into the ice container.

–the water valve opening or closing.

–ice loosening in the tray.

–running water.

Cleaning the ice dispenser

Clean the dispenser and ice container at regular intervals, particularly before you take a vacation or move, also clean the dispenser if it sticks.

caution

When removing or replacing the ice bin do not rotate the auger in the ice bin. If the auger is accidentally turned, you must realign the auger by turning it in

90° turns until the ice bin fits into place with the drive mechanism

auger

To clean the dispenser:

1.Switch the ice maker switch to the “OFF” position.

2.Remove the ice container by lifting it up and out. Empty and carefully clean the container with mild detergent. Rinse carefully ensuring no traces

of detergent remain. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. Allow the ice container to dry completely before replacing it in the freezer.

3.Remove ice chips from the shelf and chute that support the ice container; clean these areas.

4.Replace the ice container. Ensure the wire arm sits within the ice cube container. (see diagram below)

5.Turn the ice maker switch back to the “ON” position.

wire arm

ice cube container

Remove and empty the ice storage bin if:

1.An extended power failure (one hour or longer) causes ice cubes in the ice storage bin to melt and freeze together and jam the dispenser mechanism.

2.If the ice dispenser is not used frequently, ice cubes will freeze together in the bin and jam the dispenser mechanism. If this happens remove the ice storage bin and shake it to loosen the cubes.

caution

NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp instrument to break up the ice. This could damage the ice storage bin and dispenser mechanism.

Changing the water filter

If you purchased a refrigerator with a water filter (ice and water models), please read the following care and use information.

An external water filter and connection kit has been supplied for use with your ice & water refrigerator.

The external filter design allows more space within the refrigerator and provides double the life of previous filters reducing the cost of replacement. The filter is designed to significantly reduce chlorine, taste, odour, heavy metals, turbidity ( cloudiness) and scale

build up. The included plastic (LLDPE) water tube allows quick connection to the filter and is designed for high durability and kink resistance.

This filter is designed only to be used with a potable water supply. It should not be used on water that is micro biologically unsafe or with water of unknown quality. The filter should be replaced every 12 months. The service life of the filter may be reduced in water supplies that contain an excess of particles or other impurities. Reduced flow rate is an indication that a new filter is required. Failure to replace the filter when required can affect the function of the ice maker. Service calls caused by a failure to replace the filter are not covered by warranty (see page 20).

When to change the filter

Water conditions vary throughout the world, but changing the water filter every 12 months will ensure the highest possible water quality. The electronics in your refrigerator will track the amount of water usage and advise on when the filter should be replaced. If the filter has not been in use for a while (because of a move for example), change the filter before you reinstall the refrigerator.

Replacement filters can be purchased from the nearest Service Centre (see page 20 for contact details). The filter change interval can be reset by pressing the clock button.

Changing the filter

Turn off water supply at the tap. Ensure that the ice maker switch is in the “O” (OFF) position.

To change the filter:

1.Turn off the water supply.

2.Release the pressure in the water lines by holding a container against the water dispenser paddle on the refrigerator until the pressure has been released.

3.Turn off the refrigerator at the power point and remove the plug from the socket.

4.Depress the collet (see illustration below) and pull the tube out of each end of the filter.

5.Refit the tubes into the new filter to the stops (about 15mm). Ensure that you observe the flow direction.

Write the fitment date in the space provided on the filter.

6.Gently pull back on the tube to ensure that it is secure.

7.Turn the water supply back on and check for leaks.

8.Plug the unit back in and turn the power supply back on to the refrigerator.

9.Purge and dispose of approximately 5 litres of water through the water dispenser to condition the filter and clear the water lines of air and impurities. It may take up to a minute to get a full flow of water from the dispenser. Do not be alarmed if there is an initial black colour to the water. This is residual carbon dust from the filter and is non-toxic.

10.Once the lines have been purged, dispose of the first few batches of ice to ensure that impurities have been flushed from this part of the system.

Cleaning your refrigerator

warning

BEFORE CLEANING: Turn the refrigerator off at the power point and unplug the cord to prevent any chance of electrocuting yourself.

•Doors and exterior – stainless steel

Your stainless steel appliance is manufactured from a mark resistant stainless steel. This stainless steel has a special advanced protective coating that eases the removal of marks such as finger prints and water spots. To keep your stainless steel appliance looking at its best, you should clean it regularly. You should only clean the stainless steel doors with luke-warm soapy water and a soft cloth, rinsing with clean water and then wipe the surface with clean water and a soft clean cloth to remove soap residue.

It is important to wipe in the direction of the grain of the stainless steel to avoid undue marking of the surface.

caution

Do not use abrasive pads or other cleaners as they are likely to scratch the surface. Damage to this product after installation is not covered by your warranty.

Drip Tray (Ice & Water models only)

Water may accumulate in the sump located under the drip tray. If this occurs the sump can be sponged out to prevent water overflowing down the front of the door.

For cleaning, remove the tray as described below:

1.Insert a lever (e.g. spoon handle) in the opening in the drip tray.

2.Whilst holding the front of tray, lever the back upwards.

3.To refit, position the front of the tray into

the front of the sump then lower the back of the tray.

1. opening in drip tray

Cleaning the interior

You should clean the refrigerator interior regularly. It will be easiest to clean when the food supply is low. Wash the interior with a soft cloth and use an unscented mild soap with lukewarm water. Thoroughly dry all surfaces and removable parts. Avoid getting water on refrigerator controls. If you have taken out any removable parts, replace them and switch the power on before restocking the refrigerator with food. You should keep the interior of your refrigerator hygienic by promptly and thoroughly wiping up any food spills.

Keep door seals clean

Take care to keep door seals clean. Sticky food and drink can cause seals to stick to the cabinet and tear when you open the door. Wash the seal with a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry.

electrolux side by side refrigeration user manual 17

caution

Never use hot water, solvents, commercial kitchen cleaners, aerosol cleaners, metal polishes, caustic or abrasive cleaners, or scourers to clean this appliance as they will damage it.

Many commercially available cleaning products and detergents contain solvents that will damage your refrigerator. When cleaning, use only a soft cloth with an unscented mild soap and lukewarm water.

Energy consumption

(electricity costs)

The following guide will help you reduce the running cost of your new refrigerator. This will save you money and help conserve our valuable energy resources.

1.If you keep your old refrigerator, save power by switching it off when not in use.

2.Do not set your freezer temperature too low. After 24 hours, ice cream should be firm but able to be scooped out with a spoon without bending the handle. If ice cream is firmer than this (or too soft), adjust the freezer temperature controls (see ‘Controlling the Temperatures’, page 10).

3.Ensure that the refrigerator doors seal properly as you close them.

4.Before you open the refrigerator doors, decide what you want to put in or take out. This will minimize the time you have the doors open.

5.It is best to have the refrigerator in a place that is out of direct sunlight and away from heating appliances of any kind. For example, do not place the refrigerator next to

a cooker, stove or dishwasher.

6.Allow hot foods to cool to room temperature before you put them in your freezer.

7.Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator section.

8.If you keep the freezer compartment filled to capacity, your food mass will help maintain the freezer temperature when you open the door.

9.Do not block air vents. Doing so may cause the refrigerator to run longer and use more energy.

Switching off the refrigerator

If you are leaving for a short holiday, there is no need to turn off your refrigerator – use eco/vacation or eco mode (page 11).

If you are going on a long holiday and want to turn the refrigerator off, follow the steps below.

1.Take all the food out of the refrigerator and freezer compartments.

2.Switch off the refrigerator and remove the electric cord from the power point.

3.Clean the inside.

4.Leave the doors open. This prevents bacteria from growing and causing smells in the refrigerator.

Power failure

If there is a power failure in your area, keep the door to the freezer closed. Most foods in your freezer will stay frozen for 24 hours.

	Other strange sounds may mean that
	you need to check and take action.
	For example, noises may mean that:
	• The cabinet is not level.
	• The floor is uneven or weak.
	• Bottles are badly placed and rattling.
	• There are vibrations from an object on top

Attention ! Les systèmes d’aérosol automatiques (comme ceux qui permettent de contrôler les insectes) ne doivent pas être placés à proximité de l’appareil car, à long terme, ils sont susceptibles d’endommager ses plastiques externes.

Dégagements disponibles autour de votre réfrigérateur

Votre réfrigérateur jumelé peut être installé entre des armoires ou des meubles, mais vous devez conserver des dégagements suffisants autour de l’appareil.

•Laissez un dégagement minimum de 5 millimètres des deux côtés (voir diagramme 1).

•Laissez un dégagement minimum de 10 millimètres au-dessus des cache-charnières (voir diagramme 1).

•Laissez un dégagement minimum de 50 millimètres à l’arrière du réfrigérateur (voir diagramme 1).

Installation
Le réfrigérateur doit arriver avec les
roulettes avant abaissées.
Nous vous recommandons d’incliner le
réfrigérateur
vers l’arrière de 10 à 15 millimètres
afin de laisser la porte se fermer
automatiquement et garantir ainsi une
étanchéité constante. Pour ce faire, vois
les instructions ci-dessous.
Roulettes avant	Roulettes

Quand vous voulez installer votre réfrigérateur, procédez comme suit. 1. Faites rouler le réfrigérateur jusqu’à sa position finale.

Avertissement ! Les roulettes sont conçues uniquement pour le mouvement avant et arrière. Ce ne sont pas des roues. Si vous déplacez l’appareil latéralement, vous risquez d’endommager le sol et les roulettes.

2.Si vous n’inclinez pas l’appareil vers l’arrière, vous pouvez régler les deux roulettes avant en tournant le gros écrou de roulette en plastique (voir page 26). La présence de deux personnes est nécessaire ; l’une pour régler les roulettes, l’autre pour incliner légèrement le réfrigérateur vers l’arrière pour soulager les roulettes avant du poids de l’appareil. La hauteur des roulettes est ainsi augmentée ou diminuée. Un tour appliqué à l’écrou modifie l’inclinaison du réfrigérateur d’environ 10 millimètres.

3.Si l’appareil est de niveau, alors ses parois latérales sont d’aplomb ou verticales. Si l’appareil est totalement ou en partie intégré, vérifiez son alignement par rapport aux armoires.

Aligné sur l’armoire –

espacement régulier

Haut du réfrigérateur de niveau – horizontal

Régler les roulettes avant en cas d’irrégularité du sol, par exemple abaisser cette roulette. Il peut être nécessaire d’insérer un morceau d’emballage au-dessous de la roulette

avant pour garantir la stabilité.

4.Si l’appareil oscille d’un coin sur l’autre, cela signifie que le sol n’est pas de niveau ; vous devez caler l’une de roulettes arrière.

5.Vous pouvez devoir affiner l’installation en réglant à nouveau les roulettes avant.

•Laissez un dégagement de 200 ou 350 millimètres du côté charnière des portes, si vous placez le réfrigérateur à côté d’un mur. Ceci permettra un nettoyage plus facile (voir diagramme 2).

Réglage de l’alignement de la porte

Chaque porte est réglable de façon indépendante dans l’axe vertical en faisant tourner les boulons de réglage qui se situent sous la charnière à l’aide de la clé fournie.

Écrou de réglage

Roulette avant

Gros écrou en plastique de réglage des roulettes

Les portes peuvent être réglées vers le haut et vers le bas. Selon le degré de réglage nécessaire, il peut être suffisant de ne régler qu’une seule porte. (voir Diagrammes ci-dessous)

Remarque ! Quand la hauteur des roulettes et le réglage des boulons sont corrects, le réfrigérateur repose solidement sur le sol et les portes sont alignées l’une par rapport à l’autre.

Modèles Eau et glaçons

Le branchement sur le circuit d’arrivée d’eau de votre produit Eau et glaçons doit être réalisé par un mécanicien, un plombier ou un électricien frigoriste agréé. Toutes les informations pertinentes

à propos du branchement sur le circuit d’arrivée d’eau sont détaillées dans le kit fourni avec votre appareil et ne doivent être utilisées que par un installateur professionnel.

Le distributeur automatique d’eau et de glaçons nécessite une alimentation en eau potable sous une pression de :

•206 kPa (30 psi, 2,11 kgf/cm2 minimum)

•689 kPa (100 psi, 7,04 kgf/cm2 maximum)

Dans certaines régions, en raison des conditions locales, l’eau est fournie sous une pression significativement plus élevée. Dans ces régions, une vanne de réduction de pression doit être utilisée. Assurez-vous que votre plombier ou votre installateur vérifie la pression locale de l’eau lors de l’installation de votre réfrigérateur.

Si vous utilisez votre réfrigérateur pour la première fois, ou si vous n’avez pas utilisé le distributeur depuis un certain temps :

•jetez les sept ou huit premiers glaçons

•jetez toute la glace produite par le distributeur de glaçons au cours des 24 premières heures (des contaminants peuvent s’être déposés dans les tuyaux d’eau) (voir page 33 pour plus d’informations)

Le robinet d’arrivée d’eau peut se trouver n’importe où et il n’y a pas de limite pour la longueur de tuyau entre ce robinet et le réfrigérateur ; il convient cependant de tenir compte de certains points :

1.Il vaut mieux que le robinet d’arrivée d’eau soit accessible sans avoir à faire rouler le réfrigérateur vers l’avant, nous vous recommandons donc de l’installer à l’extérieur de la cavité comme indiqué sur le diagramme ci-dessous.

2.Il est recommandé, mais pas obligatoire, que le robinet d’arrivée d’eau soit installé à 400 mm au-dessus du sol.

3.Si le réfrigérateur doit être tiré vers l’avant pour un nettoyage, le tuyau doit être débranché du robinet d’arrivée d’eau.
