- Loosely fit both 16mm Philips hanging screws onto the door panel. Ensure there is a minimum space of 3 mm between the screw-head and the panel.
PUSH INTO CAVITY
-
Using a flat-bladed screwdriver, turn to raise the leveling feet. Level the rear, and outside legs first followed by the front legs. Do not adjust the rear middle leg yet.
-
Remove both screw covers before partially pushing the product into the cavity, pulling the hoses through as you push to avoid crushing or twisting them. Take care not to bend the legs.
Push the product from the outside edges to avoid door damage. -
Check the product sits level within the cavity.
If required, the rear middle leg can be adjusted from the front of the product using a 5mm Allen key. -
Select desired spacer width and cut to size. Remove the adhesive and fit two spacers to each side of the product.
Push the product into the cavity from the outside edges.
SECURE DOOR PANEL
