1.3 Installation, placement and altering the direction that the door opens

Figure 4

1 The refrigerator should be placed on firm,flat floor. and make sure to adjut the two height-adjustable feet according to figure 2 to make the refrigerator vertical and stable, otherwise , the refrigerator will lean a little toward the front and this will affect normal running of the refrigerator.

2 Do not place the refrigerator near a heat source or expose it to direct sunlight.

If the refrigerator is placed near a heat source an insulation plate must be used and the following minimum distances between the refrigerator and the source of heat must be observed:

-3cm from another electrical appliance not used for cooking

-30cm from a stove or other cooking facility

3 Electrical connection

The refrigerator must only be plugged into a properly installed and earthed socket. The electricity supply should be; AC 220V (165 -242V) / 50 Hz, to ensure that a current of 10A mps or above can be used.

It must be ensured that the plug and socket match, that the conductor cross-section is sufficient and that the earthing system has been installed in compliance with regulations.

Multiple plug connectors and extension cables must not be used.

Note: normally a voltage stabilizer is not needed because the refrigerator can start with a low voltage. A voltage stabilizer of

500 Watts or above should be installed if the voltage of the power supply fluctuates considerably.

4Ventilation

The refrigerator should be placed in a dry and well ventilated room. A distance of over 30cm from the top and 30cm from both sides of the refrigerator should be kept for proper air circulation. The ventilation inlet and outlet grills and other airways must never be covered.

1 Remove the screw and then remove the right lower supporting plate (1) and the freezer door(2). Remove the screw and then remove the left supporting plate (3).

3 Remove the screw and then remove the middle supporting plate (4) and the cooler door (5). Then fix the right lower supporting plate back onto the right of the refrigerator (6).

4 Remove the left plastic cover from upper cool door, and keep it as spare part (7), move the right plastic cover from the right side of the cool door to left-side (8), then put the right plastic cover into the right hole (9).

5 Take down the four plastic covers on bottom edge of cooler door and top edge of freezer door and crisscross lay them in the corresponding holes (10). (e.g. Put the plastic cover on left bottom edge of cooler door into the hole on right

top edge of freezer door, then put the plastic cover on right top edge of freezer door into the hole on left bottom edge of cooler door.)

6 Remove the plastic plugs from the middle left of the refrigerator and then insert them into the holes on the middle right of the refrigerator (11).

7 Remove the upper axes bolt from the upper right side of the refrigerator and then screw it tightly into position on the upper left side (12).

8 Insert the upper axes bolt into the hole on the top left of the cooler door and then shut the cooler door (13). Insert the middle supporting plate into the bottom left cooler door bolt hole and then fix it firmly onto the refrigerator with two screws (14).

9Insert the bolt of the middle supporting plate into the top left hole of the freezer door and then close the freezer door (15). remove the axes bolt from right lower supporting plate and screw it tightly into the left lower supporting plate. then insert the bolt of left lower supporting plate into the bottom left hole of freezer door and then fix left lower supporting plate firmly onto the refrigerator with two screws (16).
