SECURING THE REFRIGERATOR
After the refrigerator has been installed (ensuring a combustion
seal at the front frame), the refrigerator must be secured in the
enclosure with six screws (not included). Furthermore, a lower
front strip (shipped as a loose part) should be attached.
NOTE!
It is important to follow the sequence in securing the
refrigerator since failure in doing that can cause leakage be-
tween the frame and cabinet!
Install the six screws in the following order:
Two screws installed through the front base and
installation of the lower front strip.
Install the lower front strip by sliding it under the
bottom hinge plate. The hinge plate can be on the
right or left side depending on the door swing.
Once the lower front strip is slipped under the
hinge, the part is possible to swing into place.
Secure the refrigerator and the lower front strip
with two screws: One screw through the hinge
and on the opposite side and then, one screw
through the lower front strip.
Two screws installed in the top frame.
Two screws installed in the rear base.

INSTALLING THE REFRIGERATOR
Use care when installing the refrigerator. It is equipped with
the latest vacuum insulated panel technology. These insulating
panels are located on the top, back, bottom, sides and doors. If
the surface is punctured, loss of insulation will occur, resulting
in poor refrigerator performance.
Make sure the fl oor is solid and level. Do not install the appli-
ance directly on carpeting. Carpeting must be removed or pro-
tected by a metal or wood panel beneath the appliance, which
extends at least full width and depth of the appliance.
The refrigerator must be level and installed in a substantial
enclosure. For information about recess dimensions, see
“
APPENDIX A - TECHNICAL DATA
”
.
A
wood strip
must be in place across
the upper opening of the enclosure. The
top frame of the refrigerator will be
anchored to the wood strip with screws.
When installing the refrigerator in the enclosure, all areas
within the recess have to be sealed. Verify that there is a com-
plete seal between the front frame of the refrigerator and the
top, sides and bottom of the enclosure.
A length of sealing strip is applied
to the rear surface of the front
frame for this purpose. The sealing
should provide a provide a com-
plete isolation of the appliance’s
combustion system from the ve-
hicle interior.
Be careful not to damage the seal-
ing strip when the refrigerator is
put in place!
