Location
When selecting a position for your unit you should make sure the oor is at and rm, and
the room is well ventilated with an average room temperature of between 16°C and 43°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 not designed for use in a garage
or outdoor installation. Do not drape the unit with any covering.
Attaching the Door Handles
Match the door handles to the unit’s doors before attaching them: the upper door handles
are longer than the lower door handles.
1. Align the door handle with the retaining clips (plastic protrusions) on the unit doors.
2. Push forwards until the door handle is ush with the unit door.
3. Pull down gently but rmly until the door handle clicks.
4. Repeat Steps (1) to (3) for the remaining door handles.

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.
Free Space Requirements
When installing the unit, ensure that 25 mm
of free space is left at both sides, 15 mm at
the rear of the unit and 20 mm at the top of
the unit. Please ensure left and right doors
can be fully opened.
