friendly and can be safely disposed.

Lifting the Compact Kitchen

Care should always be taken when lifting the kitchen,
please wear appropriate gloves and ensure there are
sufficient people to lift the kitchen from the packaging
into its final position. Lift from the bottom of the unit and
be careful of any sharp edges, do not lift using the door
or fridge handles as this will damage your kitchen.

Assembly, installation and connection of your
compact mini kitchen

Your compact kitchen is designed to work in room
temperatures between 12 and 32°C. Tiles may be
placed around the top of the kitchen but please note that
most repairs can be carried out with the kitchen in situ
but occasionally you may need to remove your kitchen
for maintenance and too much cement and grout will
prevent ease of removal.

The kitchen must be placed on a firm level surface, there
is limited adjustment on the front feet of your kitchen and
also bear in mind the fridge may need to be removed so
the floor in front of the kitchen must be at the same level.

The vents at the rear of the pantry top must be kept
clear in order to allow the heat from the built in
appliances to exhaust.

Appliances

Your Elfin kitchen will have either a Liebherr or Tech­wood fridge fitted dependant on the model purchased
and we ask you to read the operation instructions found
in the fridge.

*Attention*
The Liebherr fridge is fitted with a ‘CoolPlus’ button

located by the thermostat control knob inside the
fridge. This is designed for use in cold environments
and prolonged use (over 24hours) could result in
your fridge failing as the compressor will be over
worked and this type of failure is not covered under
warranty.

If your kitchen is fitted with a combination oven, micro­wave, convection oven or dishwasher please do read
the operating instructions and keep in a safe place for
future reference.

Regular cleaning will prolong the life of any appliance
and prevent any unwanted smells!
