The Norcool corner fridge is available in these models; for integration, for integra-
tion with stainless steel door and a freestanding model in all stainless steel.
They are designed for chilling food for use in private households. These User
instructions are general, and apply to all models.
The corner fridge units require a power supply of 220-240VAC 50 Hz and must be
connected to an earthed min. 10A mains socket. The mains socket must be easily
available. Corner fridge units have a capacity of 1161 liters and have 3m2 shelf area
without boxes. The maximum allowable load on door hinges (including furniture
front and goods) is 45kg. Weight of complete cold room door is 15kg. We recom-
mend that heavy products are not placed in the door. Use the shelves or floor.
Always ensure there is sucient air circulation above and under the fridge (all
models). Freestanding corner fridges must have a gap of minimum 130mm from
top of the cabinet to the kitchen ceiling, and 25mm from bottom of the cabinet to
the kitchen floor. If the corner fridge is to be integrated in a floor to ceiling kitchen,
ensure sucient air circulation above and under the corner fridge by fitting an air
grille in the plinth and above the door, plus an air duct. See fig. 1. When integrat-
ing, air grilles must always be used. Select right- or left hinging of doors when
installing.
Room temperature where a corner fridge is installed must always be between 16
- 38° C.
A practical equipment pack is also oered to help you keep good order and orga-
nize the inside of the fridge. This consists of a wine shelf, bottle rack for 16 x 1.5
liter bottles and a practical basket for smaller dressing bottles.

4. Environment - energy conservation
4.1 Energy ecient use
The highest temperature will normally be in the uppermost door shelves since
they are located outside the air circulation. Here, butter will stay soft and cheese
will retain its aromatic taste. Because cold air sinks, it will normally be the coldest
at the bottom of the corner fridge. An evaporator fan is mounted on the refrig-
eration unit/ back wall, which circulates the cold air such that the temperature is
distributed in the fridge. The temperature will vary a few degrees between the top
and bottom, which is completely normal.
4.2 Measures for energy conservation
The most important energy conservation measure is avoid leaving the fridge
door open, this will cause increased running time and increased energy consump-
tion. Having good order and organization in your Corner Fridge cabinet will save
you much searching and time, and you will reduce the running time and energy
consumption.
Tips:
• Leftovers from hot food should be cooled to room temperature before they are
placed in the fridge.
• Defrost frozen goods in the fridge, since the food defrosts more gently and fro-
zen goods will emit cold to the fridge and save running time and energy.
• Avoid placing hot food in the fridge, since this increases frost formation and
increases running time.

10 5. Important information
To ensure proper installation and use and thereby prolong the lifetime of the prod-
uct, you must study this installation and user manual carefully prior to installa-
tion. Repairs must only be made by qualified personnel. The manufacturer will not
assume liability for any damage resulting from non-compliance with the following
instructions. Keep these instructions in a safe place as they contain many tips on
use and regular maintenance. The product will require maintenance even in nor-
mal use and replacement of parts which are worn out can be necessary. These
are not covered during the warranty period, but are covered by the guarantee in
accordance with the Sale of Goods Act.
Overvoltage protection is recommended to protect the fridge’s electronics. Elec-
trical safety for the appliance is only guaranteed if the earthing system in the
house has been mounted in a manner in accordance with the regulations.
A data plate with serial number is located on the inside back wall in the bottom
right corner. Serial number must always be stated when contacting service con-
tractor or manufacturer.
Scandinavian Appliances AS disclaims all liability for typographical errors in this
user manual and reserves the right to alter the product specifications.

14 7. Pre-installation
Unpack the cabinet and check it for any transport damage. Do not use a dam-
aged product! In the event of damage, please contact the shipping company and
make sure that the damage is noted on the consignment note. Then check that all
the parts on the parts list at the back of this user guide are present. Contact your
vendor in the event of damage or deficiencies.
The corner fridge units require a power supply of 220-240VAC 50 Hz and must
be connected to an earthed min.10A mains socket. If the cord is not long enough
(3.6 m mains power cable is connected to the back wall.), then en electrician must
install a min. 10A socket closer to the fridge, e.g. on the ceiling above it. Never
allow the unit to be connected to an extension lead permanently. The socket must
be readily accessible for installation/service.
When fitting a new kitchen with a Norcool corner fridge, install the unit before the
rest of the kitchen on the site where it will stand permanently.

8. Installation
8.1 Installing cabinet
When installing the corner fridge, do NOT screw or drill anywhere else than shown
in the manual. If you do so it can ruin the construction and isolation ability.
1. Floor element. Begin with the floor element. For integration into the kitchen,
install the adjustable feet to the floor element, and adjust to the desired height in
relation to plinth height of the kitchen. Check that the floor element is stable and
level. The maximum plinth height is190mm and the minimum is 145mm. Freestand-
ing corner fridges do not need adjustable feet. The floor element must be stable
and level. This is essential to ensure the other elements and door will achieve a
good seal.
2. Side walls. Before installing the side walls, check that the lock tabs engage the
lock housing. Twist the lock tabs back all the way until you hear a click. For cor-
rect locking, turn the Allen key approx. 145°. NOTE: The elements can creak when
being locked. Mount the side walls on the floor element and lock them together.
Fit the top element and lock into place. Fit the white plastic plugs supplied over
the lock holes to conceal them. NOTE: Power supply cable in back wall of ceiling
element must be accessible and hang down freely for connection of back wall.
There are mounted ledge lists for the door on all items. Check that the four fittings
are flush in the corners.
3. Roof element. It is important that there is minimum free space of 100mm from
top of the roof element to the ceiling due to disassembly if necessary. If fitting
full-cover stainless steel elements, then now go straight to “Installing full-cover
stainless steel elements for freestanding corner fridges.”
4. Back wall with refrigeration unit. The
mechanical element of the cooling wall must
face in towards the corner in the kitchen.
Before lifting the back wall through the door
opening in the fridge, use protective mate-
rial in the bottom floor to avoid scratches.
( Floor protection sheet in white plastic
material is also available as extra part num-
ber 9947551200) Assembly the backwall in
the niche by lifting the backwall through the
dooropening, tilt the top against you and lift
the backwall into the niche. Grasp the cord
from the ceiling element and connect this
cord to the back wall, labelled ”light”. Check
that the power cable could be reached after

16 8. Installation
installation! Screw back wall into place using the 5 white screws supplied with
plastic washers.
NOTE! Press back wall firmly whilst tightening screws.
Make sure that the electric cable is free.
8.2 Installing full-cover stainless steel elements for freestanding corner fridge
cabinet (see figure 3)
Stainless steel side plates
1. Preparation The corner fridge must be laid on its back with the door opening
upwards to fit the stainless steel elements on to the side walls. Lay a piece of card-
board or paper on the floor to prevent scratches. Make sure that the electric cable
from the top of the corner fridge is free, place a piece of cardboard in between the
top of the corner fridge and the floor.
NOTE: Do not remove the styrofoam from side plates!
2. Securing stainless steel side plates. Mount the stainless steel side plates onto
the side walls. Check elements are positioned correctly and secure with 8 (4,8mm
x 16mm) self-tapping screws supplied. Screw these into floor and ceiling in slots
on the stainless steel side plates using an electric screwdriver. Raise corner fridge
up for remaining installation. Go back to point 8.1 and continue with the rest of this
page. Stainless steel door panel (see figure 4)
1. Hinges. Unscrew the screws for the hinges, upper and lower (point 2 in fig. 4).
Then mount the hinges on the door. Remember the dierence between right and
left hinge!
2. Secure door panel. Lay door panel on a level surface, preferably cardboard, to
prevent scratches. Check that the handle side is not on same side as hinges. Posi-
tion the fridge door in middle of panel and screw into place with 6 of the screws

8. Installation
supplied in pre-drilled holes on upper and lower sides of the door. Insert plastic
plug in oblong hole in middle of hinge side to secure panel even better.
3. Handle Secure stainless steel handle using 3 screws supplied in pre-drilled holes
in door panel.
4. Cabinet door. Remove hinge retaining screws in floor and ceiling on side
selected for hinges using Allen key supplied. Open hinges fitted on fridge door.
Hold the door in the open position while inserting hinge screws through holes in
hinges. Finger tighten up to (not completely tightened) floor and ceiling. NOTE:
If working alone, place a support under fridge door at correct height for hinges.
Allow door to rest on this while installing hinges into place.
Light switch support piece (see Fig. 7) is mounted at the top of the door and
prepared for right-hinged door. If you want to change the door from right to left,
this plastic piece (2) must be moved to the opposite end of the door. Remove the
screws (3) and move the piece to the opposite end and fit the screw in the ready-
drilled holes.
5. The magnetic seal can be compressed after being packed and transported. It
will return to its original shape a while after being unpacked. Door can be adjusted
using adjustment plate supplied if the seal is compressed - see fig. 6B. If the mag-
netic seal is pressed too hard on door seal or is twisted; open door 90° and loosen
hinge screws to floor/ceiling, move adjustment plate inwards between hinge and
ceiling/floor and screw securely. See fig. 6A.
6. Adjustment and sealing. Door can be adjusted sideways to correct position and
then securely screwed. Examine whether the door can close properly. If you can
pull a sheet of paper out through the closed door without any great resistance,
then the door ought to be further adjusted.

18
8.3 Integration of corner fridge cabinet (see fig 9)
Adjust and level cabinet floor height in accordance with plinth height of your
kitchen. Depth of cover sides and/or worktop will determine distance from room
corners. Corner fridge may need to be pulled forward, as worktop should not be
deeper than cover side. This will avoid the door hitting the worktop. The ideal
combination is cover sides of 600mm and door plate 595mm. Pull corner 10mm
forward to reduce white line around door as much as possible.
NOTE: Avoid screwing kitchen front too tightly. 1 spacer block is supplied for
each side wall. Do not remove these, as they ensure air circulation and prevent
condensation on walls in the room.
8.4 Fitting furniture fronts (see figures 5, 6 and 8)
1. Hinges. Remember dierence between right and left hinge. Remove screws in
countersunk holes on cold room door. Position correct hinge in recess and screw
securely.
8. Installation

19
2. Fitting furniture front. Drill holes from
the inside of the door through bushings
in external steel plate using Ø4 mm drill.
NOTE! Drilling and screwing must not be
done at places in the door other than in
through bushings since such may ruin the
design and insulating capability. Take into
account the furniture front thickness to
avoid screw through the furniture front.
Position furniture front(s) on a level surface.
Check up/down for fronts and handle posi-
tion. Position fridge door correctly on furni-
ture front(s). If in doubt about positioning,
fit fridge door to cabinet and check correct
positioning in relation to cornice seal and
side plates. To avoid over-tighten and dam-
aging plastic bushings or their hold in the
furniture front we recommend using hand
tools. Attach the furniture front by using the screws (4X45mm). The screw will
extend approximately 9mm into the furniture front. Press the supplied plastic caps
into the covers to conceal the screw heads.
3. Cabinet door. Remove hinge retaining screws in floor and ceiling on side selected
for hinges using Allen key supplied. Open hinges fitted on fridge door. Hold the
door in the open position while inserting hinge screws through holes in hinges.
Finger tighten up to (not completely tightened) floor and ceiling - see fig. 5.
NOTE: If working alone, place a support under fridge door at correct height for
hinges. Allow door to rest on this while screwing hinges into place.
4. Handle. The desired handle must be fastened vertically 25 mm from the outer
edge of the fridge door to the centre hole. The screw length depends on the han-
dle and thickness of the furniture panel (thickness of fridge door is 35 mm). Drill
the proper number of holes. Washers should be used for better fastening. Thread
washer on screw and fasten with handtool.
5. Air grilles. Cut an opening in plinth for air grille. The opening
must be 448 mm x 56 mm.
8.5 Fitting furniture sides (see figure 9)
1. Preparation. Corner fridge must be in place without shelves and other internal
fixtures in kitchen with door and front fitted.
8. Installation

20 8. Installation
Fitting furniture sides. Drill hole from the inside of the sidewalls through bushings
in external steel plate using Ø4 mm drill. NOTE! Drilling and screwing must not be
done at places in the sidewalls other than in through bushings since such may
ruin the design and insulating capability. Take into account the furniture sides
thickness to avoid screw through the furniture sides. Position furniture sides level
with upper edge of corner fridge and pull as far forwards towards furniture front
as possible to minimize gap between furniture front and furniture side. To avoid
over-tighten and damaging plastic bushings or their hold in the furniture sides
we recommend using hand tools. Attach the furniture sides by using the screws
(4X35mm). The screw will extend approximately 13mm into the furniture sides.
Press the supplied plastic caps into the covers to conceal the screw heads.
8.6 Installation in floor to ceiling kitchen
When installing a corner fridge in a floor to ceiling kitchen, an extra air grille and
air conduit must be fitted to ensure sucient air circulation above and below.
Place the air duct on the roof of the corner fridge. Integrate the corner fridge as
described in chapter 3. Cut a hole in the front panel of the door and the base for
mounting the air vent. Make sure the air vent is placed by the air duct outlet. When
installing the corner fridge in a kitchen that is 2.10 m, do not use the supplied air
vent and extra air duct outlet over the roof element.
8.7 Preparing corner fridge (for all models)
1. Preparation. Insert plastic plugs supplied into all open holes and bushings.
