Installing your refrigerator
The appliance should arrive with the stability foot wound fully
up so it will not interfere with the operation of the rollers (see
diagram in Step 3 below).
caution
The rollers are designed for forward or backward
movement only. They are not castors. Moving the
refrigerator sideways may damage your fl oor and
the rollers.
1. Roll the refrigerator into its fi nal position.
2. The top of the refrigerator should be tilted back by
approximately 20mm. This will allow the doors to
self-close providing a consistent door seal and stability
when the doors are open.
3. When you have the appliance in its fi nal position,
it needs to be stabilized Wind the stability foot down
to the fl oor until it just makes contact with the fl oor.
Whenever you need to move the appliance, be sure
to wind the foot back up so that the appliance can roll
freely and be sure to reset it when reinstalling.
( The wrench opening size 30mm )
Note: Refrigerator doors on all models are designed to sit
proud of cabinetry (not fl ush).
4. Check the alignment of the refrigerator to the surrounding
cupboards.
The top of the refrigerator should be on the
same level from side to side (see diagram below).
I f you need to adjust the level, use the adjustable rollers
as discussed in Step 3.

5. If the refrigerator rocks from one corner to the
opposite rear corner, this means that the fl oor is uneven;
you will need to put some packing under one of the
rear rollers. You could use thin pieces of solid material,
such as thin board, vinyl fl oor tiles or laminate. Place
the packing so that it will sit under one of the rear
rollers when the refrigerator is rolled into position.
6. You may now need to fi ne-tune the installation by
repeating Steps 3, 4 and 5.
7. Whenever you need to move the refrigerator, be sure to
wind the foot back up so that the refrigerator can
roll freely.

Your new energy effi cient appliance uses a high-speed
compressor and other energy effi cient components that may
produce diff erent noises to your old appliance.
These sounds are normal and includes:
• compressor running noise.
• air movement noise from the small fan motor.
• occasional gurgling, similar to water boiling.
• a popping noise, heard during automatic defrosting.
• a clicking noise, just prior to the compressor starting up.
These noises are normal and will not cause the unit to alarm.

Refrigerator Operation
The refrigerator transfers heat from food placed inside the
appliance to the outside air.
This process makes the rear, the sides and the area
adjacent to the doors, particularly at initial start up, feel
warm to hot, this is normal.
There is a cooling coil located behind the rear wall of the
cabinet. This coil cools and removes moisture from the air.
A fan then circulates cold, dry air throughout the cabinet.
This air circulation means that food are refrigerated far
more quickly than in refrigerators where the air remains
relatively static.
Avoid placing food against air outlets as this will aff ect
air circulation.
A light frosting will occasionally occur on the cold interior
the freezer when the door is opened frequently. This
of
is normal and will disappear after a few days in most
climates.
Checking the softness of ice cream i s a good indication
that your freezer is the right period, While checking
the tempe rature of water kept in the refrige rator is a
good way of checking the tempe rature of the food
compartmen t.
Temperature inside each compartmen t may vary,
depending on how much food you store and whe re you
place i t.
High or low room temperature may also affect the actual
temperature inside the refrigerator.
