5 SECURE Top
Trim Brackets
Locate the two/three top trim brackets.
For the Side By Side Refrigerator kits, one bracket is to be screwed in the top centre of the cabinet, secure the top bracket with two of the screws (Type A, #8 x 12 Pozi Drive CSK).
For all other kits, the two brackets are to be secured on either side, by two screws which are mounted from the side (see diagram 2).
Looking at the front of the product, place the top brackets on top of the wooden cabinet.
Care must be taken to line up the top front edge of the brackets with the leading edge of the cabinet.
Hint: Holes should be drilled in the centre of the slot in the brackets to allow for adjustment.
6 SECURE Side trim brackets
Locate the ten side trim brackets.
Position five brackets to the left hand side of the cabinet and the remaining five brackets to the right hand side of the cabinet.
Brackets should be evenly spaced down each side (see diagram 3a/b). Secure each of these brackets with the two screws provided.
Care must be taken to line up the front edge of the brackets with the leading edges of the cabinet.

2 Getting Started
1Check that the internal Cupboard Cavity dimensions are correct (see diagram 1a/b).
2Unpack the refrigerator and/or freezer cabinets from their separate delivery cartons (see individual cartons for unpacking procedures).
3Ensure the floor and/or the cupboards are protected from damage during the unpacking and assembly of the cabinets.
4Check the refrigerator and freezer doors are hinged on the desired side.
5Check that the kit is complete (refer to Parts Supplied in section 3).
Note 1: Due to the size of the refrigerator cabinets, it is essential that assembly of the kit be undertaken with a minimum of two able-bodied persons.
Note 2: It is important to include adequate venting to the top of the cabinet to ensure the efficient operation of the refrigerator.
Note 3: The installation of the cabinet or cabinets can be at floor level as shown in diagram 1a or installed above the toe kick board as in diagram 1b.
Note 4: Rollers and feet must be fitted.
Note 5: Cabinets installed above the toe kit should have a floor base constructed to support the total weight of the loaded cabinet or cabinets placed on it.
The placement of the 16mm (5/8") MDF or plywood under the cabinet or cabinets on either installation type is to allow the fitment of the bottom trim that covers it. It is optional.
