Installation
Location
When selecting a position for your unit you should make sure the floor is flat and firm, and
the room is well ventilated with an average room temperature of between 16°C and 32°C.
Avoid locating your unit near a heat source, e.g. cooker, boiler or radiator. Also avoid direct
sunlight as it may increase the electrical consumption. Extreme cold ambient temperatures
may also cause the unit not to perform properly. This unit is suitable for use in a garage or
outbuilding. Do not drape the unit with any covering.
Levelling the Unit
To do this adjust the two levelling feet at the front of the unit.
If the unit is not level, the doors and magnetic seal alignments
will not be covered properly.
Installing the Spacers
Screw the spacers to the left and right side
of the unit’s rear part.
Free Space Requirements
When installing the unit, ensure that 25 mm
of free space is left at both sides, 50 mm at
the rear of the unit and 25 mm at the top
of the unit. The door can be opened to the
right or the left, depending on which best
suits the location. Please ensure there is
adequate space for the door to fully open to
160°.

Reversing the Door Swing
Tools required: Philips style screwdriver / Flat bladed screwdriver / Hexagonal spanner
• Ensure the unit is unplugged and empty.
• To take the door off it is necessary to tilt the unit backwards. You should rest the unit on
something solid, e.g. a chair just below the top panel.
• All parts removed must be saved to do the reinstallation of the door.
• Do not lay the unit flat as this may damage the coolant system.
• We recommend that 2 people handle the unit during assembly.
• If you want to have the door swing reversed, we recommend that you contact a qualified
technician. You should only try to reverse the door yourself if you believe that you are
qualified to do so.
If the appliance is placed under a continuous worktop, the appliance lid (if applicable) may
be removed and a ventilation grille of at least 200 cm2(available from DIY shops or specialist
retailers) should be installed to the worktop above the rear of the appliance to increase
ventilation.
