INSTALLING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
INSTALLATION
Adequate ventilation around your refrigerator.
The diagram below shows the recommended airspace to
allow for ventilation of your refrigerator.
If you don’t have a cupboard with a rear gap, the
recommended clearance area on top increases from
50mm to 90mm (x) and from 32mm to 72mm (y). 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.

The clearances shown above are the recommended
minimum clearances. The clearance at the rear must not
exceed 75mm.

Your new refrigerator should arrive with the front
adjustable rollers wound down, to tilt the top backwards
by about 10mm from upright. This will allow your
refrigerator door to self-close, providing a consistent
closed seal.

front rollers
The stability foot should also be wound fully up so it will
not interfere with the operation of the rollers.
WARNING
CAUTION
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
10mm (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 increases
the height of the refrigerator by 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).
