Positioning the Cabinet
Climate Class The fridge is designed to operate within a climate class 5 environment (40°C @ 40% relative
humidity). We recommend that you put the fridge in the coolest place possible because it will
use less power and last longer.
Fridge
Location
The location of the fridge may be the single most important decision that will extend its life and
ensure economical, high performance. Allow adequate space for the door/s to open and close
properly. Self-closing doors have internal torsion bars pretensioned at the factory. Ensure the
cabinet sits on a level surface so that the door shuts and correctly seals, and that the doors
are unobstructed. Level footing also prevents the condensate tray from overflowing.
Power Cord The power cord exits from the top rear of the cabinet and is fitted with a 3-pin plug. Pull the
power cord around so that it’s not trapped before you position the cabinet.
Ventilation For efficient operation, it is essential that adequate ventilation is provided above the
refrigeration unit. Never store cardboard cartons or other items on top of the refrigeration unit.
Minimum ventilation clearances vary depending on whether the fridge is installed free-standing
or built-in. Free-standing fridges are fridges that are installed with free space around the sides
and top of the cabinet and unit. Built-in fridges are fridges that are enclosed within cabinetry
or confined spaces. Ensure the minimum clearances below are met when installing the fridge.
No clearance is required behind the fridge.
Free-standing ventilation clearance
A minimum 300 mm space is required above the refrigeration unit. Free-standing fridges may
be installed in environments up to 43°C.
Built-in ventilation clearance
A minimum 300 mm space is required above the refrigeration unit. Built-in fridges may be
installed in environments up to 40°C.
IMPORTANT
To ensure efficient and reliable operation, ensure minimum
ventilation clearances are met.
