INSTALLING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE

Adequate ventilation around your refrigerator

The diagram below shows the recommended airspace to allow for ventilation of your refrigerator. If you do not have a cupboard above the refrigerator with a rear gap of minimum 100 mm (Y), recommended clearance at the top of the refrigerator are as follows:

All models except WBE5160SC

If gap (Y) is not a minimum 100mm, then gap (X) increases from 50mm to 90mm min.

Please note for model WBE5160SC

If gap (Y) is not a minimum 100mm, then gap (Z) increases from 10mm to 45mm min.

When positioned in a corner area, spacing of at least 350mm on the hinge side will allow the doors to open enough to enable the removal of bins and shelves. Note: For those models with telescopic extension slide-out bins, the clearance required increases from 350mm to 550mm for top mount and bottom mount models, and to 450mm for the all refrigerator model to allow full access to the bins’ contents as well as bin removal.

NOTE: Doors are designed to sit proud of cabinetry (not ﬂush). The clearances shown above are the recommended minimum clearances. The clearance at the rear must not exceed 75mm.

Installing your refrigerator

Your new refrigerator should arrive with the front adjustable rollers wound down, to tilt the top backwards by about 20mm from upright. This will allow your refrigerator door to self-close, providing a consistent closed seal.

20mm

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.

1. Roll the refrigerator into place.

2. The top of the refrigerator should be tilted back by

20mm (see diagram on left). This will allow the doors to self-close providing a consistent door seal.

3. If the refrigerator isn’t tilted back, you can adjust the

two front rollers by turning the large, plastic roller nut. (see diagram below). One turn of the nut will tilt the refrigerator back approximately 10mm. If you have difﬁculty turning the roller nut, have someone tilt the refrigerator back, so you have better access. Alternatively, you can access the rollers from the side, using a ﬂat screwdriver. (See diagram below).

4. Check the alignment of the refrigerator to the

surrounding cupboards to see if it is level. You can adjust the level with the rollers as detailed in step 3.

5. If you ﬁnd your refrigerator rocks from corner to corner,

it means your ﬂoor is uneven. Find a piece of plastic or hardboard etc. and pack it ﬁrmly under the roller.

6. On certain ﬂoor surfaces the refrigerator may roll

forward during operation. Where provided a “Roller Stop” can be placed under the front rollers. If Roller Stop is required, contact customer service on 1300 363 640.

7. You may now need to ﬁne-tune the installation by

repeating Steps 3, 4 and 5.

The stability foot should also be wound fully up so it will not interfere with the operation of the rollers (see diagram in Step 3).
