PREPARE FOR INSTALLATION
Step1.
1. Check that the internal cupboard cavity dimensions are
correct for the type of installation you require.
2. Unpack the refrigerator and freezer cabinets from their
separate delivery cartons (see individual cartons for
unpacking procedures).
3. Ensure the floor and/or the cupboards are protected from
damage during the unpacking and assembly of the
cabinets.
4. Check the refrigerator and freezer doors are hinged on the
desired side.
5. Check that the Kit is complet e (refer to Joiner Kit parts list
on page 1).
Note: due to the size of the refrigerator cabinets, it is essential
that any assembly of the kit be undertaken with a minimum of
two able-bodied persons.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Step 2.
If your refrigerator has a unit compartment cover at the back,
remove using a Phillips type screw driver (USA market only).
This will be re-attached later.
Looking at the back of the two products, locate the Rear
Bracket onto the rear bottom left hand edge of the right hand
side product. Care must be taken to line up the top edge of the
Rear Bracket with the bottom edge of the white back panel.
Secure the Rear Bracket with 3 of the screws (Type A, self
tapping, silver). These 3 screws are mounted from the side.
Please note there are no pre-drilled holes for these screws
which hold the rear bracket onto the side of the cabinet.
Right hand side cabinet
Do not secure with screws (see page 4).
Left hand side cabinet
Step 4.
Locate the front adjustable feet. One can be found at each of
the cabinet’s front lower corners.
Adjust the two feet by turning either clockwise or anti-clockwise
until the two cabinets are level.
Step 5.
Remove the three screw hole caps from the top surface of each
of the cabinets with a small flat bladed screwdriver by gently
prising them loose. The caps can be found on the front edge of
the top surface of the cabinets, opposite side to the hinge.
Ensure that the top panel is not scratched or deformed during
this process. The total of six screw hole caps are not required
to be used with the kit.
Right hand side cabinet
Step 3
Step 4
Step 2
Step 3.
Locate the left hand side cabinet’s bottom right rear wall within
the open “U” section in the rear bracket. Ensure that the cabinet
sits firmly with the rear bracket.

Step 6.
Locate the front upper bracket on the top surface of the two
cabinets, taking care to line up the bosses on the Front Upper
Bracket, with the six screw points.
Note that the large centered rectangular section on the
underside of the front upper bracket acts as a spacer between
the two cabinets. Partially engage all of the screws (Type B,
hex head, silver) prior to their final tightening.
Step 8
To access the adjustable feet and to locate the front lower
bracket, the joined cabinets must be tilted backwards
approximately 60 degrees. This is a two person operation.
The person at the rear of the cabinets must acknowledge that
they have a secure grip of the cabinets prior to any work being
undertaken by the second installer.
Care must be taken not to damage either the cabinets/floor or
the surrounding cupboards during this operation.
Step 6
Step 7.
Ensure the left cabinet is properly located within the rear
bracket and that the cabinets are level. Secure the left cabinet
to the rear bracket using 3 of the screws (Type A, self tapping,
silver).
Now replace the unit compartment cover at the back using a
Phillips type screw driver (USA market only

Remove the two Levelling Feet by rotating them anti-clockwise
then remove the two bolts.
Note: C450, E450, E440T, E442B, E521T and E522B may
have an extra component as part of the levelling foot assembly,
this being a stepped plastic washer. If this part is located, it is to
be removed as it is not required to be used with this kit.

The Front Lower Bracket is now located on the underside o f the
Cabinets. Care must be taken to orient the bracket so that the
two small tabs are located with the slots on the underside of the
Cabinet.
Step 10
The two Leveling Feet Mounting Bolts are firmly located back
onto the cabinet, securing the Front Lower Bracket.
The two Leveling Feet are now screwed back into their existing
position. Once assembled, lower the Refrigerator assembly
back to a standing position, taking care not to damage it or the
surrounding cupboards/floor.
Step 12
Open both the cabinet doors for easy access to the center join
of the two Cabinets.
Step 10
Step 11
Before loading the Trim Panel Assembly, The six Type B
Screws must be loosened from the Front Top Bracket, so that
the bracket can be freely moved up and down (approximately
5mm/1/8”).

Step 14
Locate the Trim Panel Assembly under the Front Upper
Bracket. The Front Upper Bracket should be free to move up
and down to aid installation (see diagram 13).
Step 17
Complete the installation by locating the assembled combined
cabinets within the Cupboard Cavity (refer to page 2 for
Cupboard Cavity dimensions).
Step 14
Step 15
Tighten the 6 Type B Screws to locate the Front Upper Bracket.
Secure the Trim Panel Assembly with one screw (Type A, Self
Tapping, Silver).
Step 15
COMPLETE THE INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Step 16
Close the Refrigerator doors, ensuring that all door seals sit
flush against the front walls of the Cabinets.
Step 17
Step 18
If doors are out of line after installation is complete, undo top
door hinge bracket of the un-aligned door by unscrewing all 3
screws halfway. Align by moving the door left or right. Once
aligned, re-screw the hinge bracket.
Ensure the front leveling feet are adjusted to take the load of
the combined cabinets. Note: Adjusting the leveling feet can
also affect the door alignment.
