DIMENSIONS
CUPBOARD DIMENSIONS
IMPORTANT!
Pages 4, 5, 6, and 7 should be given to the person responsible for
cupboard design and construction.
The cupboard dimensions required for each model are shown on page 5, 6 & 7.
- All sizes are internal and measured in millimetres.
- It is important to ensure that the correct cupboard sizes are used to ensure adequate air flow around the refrigerator.
- Cupboard hinges should be a 120° opening type. (Use hinges supplied).
- Three hinges should be used on each cupboard door higher than 1000mm.
- Ensure the refrigerator is not connected to a power supply whilst installation takes place.
- Each operation should be carried out in the sequence specified in this instruction sheet.
NOTE: All sizes are internal and in millimetres
Step 1
Measure and confirm Dimension ‘A’.
Step 2
To calculate Dimension ‘I’ use the equation below.
Dim ‘I’ = Dim ‘A’ – (Dim ‘D’ + 5mm) mm
Step 3
* Add cabinetry thickness to Dimension ‘D’ and Dimension ‘I’ for final
measurement before construction.
NOTE : _ All sizes are internal and measured in millimetres. For
‘lettered’ dimensions refer to the table on page 4.
_
NOTE: The gap is left to ensure the refrigerator door will be allowed to close fully for a good gasket seal.
DIMENSIONS (CONTINUED)
Clearances When installed the refrigerator needs to have adequate air
ventilation. It is important to ensure there is good airflow from the
front to underneath and up the rear to the top of the cabinet (see diagrams).
Front airflow cut-out
_ NOTE: A decorative grill can be fitted so long as it does not obstruct
airflow and is removable for cleaning
Bottom rear airflow cut-out
Top rear airflow cut-out
_
When positioned in a corner the clearance of Dim G onthe hinge side of the cabinet will allow the doors to be opened enough to enable the removal of the crisper bins.
NOTE: Use the 120° hinges supplied with the kit to attach the cupboard
door to the cupboard. Attach the hinge to the door to ensure that door can
have
maximum opening, i.e. the door edge should not hit the cabinet when the
door is fully open.
Cabinet construction
_ (top mount cupboard shown below)
_
NOTE: If Dim D is larger than 1000mm in height, 3 hinges are required to attach the cupboard door to the cupboard. If Dim D is smaller than 1000mm in height, 2 hinges are required/sufficient.
INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION OF 120˚ HINGE
Please follow the instructions below to install the 120º hinge.
Attach mounting plate with 120º hinge and tighten the screw.
Use self tapping w ood screws P No. A04121101 provided to attach the hinge to the cupboard door
Use screws attached to mounting plate to attach the hinge to the cabinet.
Preparation
- Unpack refrigerator, and remove all packaging.
- Lay the refrigerator down on its back on a piece of soft packing material. Use caution and two people while laying the appliance down.
- Place adjustable rollers in the fully retracted position by screwing height adjusting screw fully anti-clockwise (Figure 2). Do not remove the adjusting nut completely.
- Attach rear rollers.
Figure 2
INSTALLATION (CONTINUED)
ATTACHING THE REAR ROLLERS
A set of adjustable back feet/rollers is provided in the kit. These are
required to ensure that the product is levelled correctly, failure to fit
these may result in the poor operation
of door opening.
-
Temporarily unfasten the screws holding the compressor base plate.
-
Fit the assembly with the removed screw and one from the kit (item 11).
-
Repeat for the other side.
Once fitted turn the adjusting nut on each roller assembly anti-clockwise three full turns, this will raise the cabinet at the rear by approximately 12mm (ensure that the nut is
completely wound up before turning).
Then secure the nut and roller assembly in place with tape (this will prevent the roller assembly from falling out when the refrigerator is place in the cupboard). Stand the refrigerator upright. On a horizontal and flat floor adjust the rollers until the refrigerator is vertical and does not rock.
ATTACHING THE TOP HINGE BRACKET
-
Remove top hinge cover (Figure 3), cover clips off.
-
Remove the three (3) top hinge screws.
-
3Elevate hinge.
-
Slide the top hinge bracket into position below the hinge.
-
Re-attach hinge and screws ensuring that refrigerator door is still correctly positioned.
IMPORTANT!
You must ensure that the refrigerator door is:
• Parallel with sides and top of cabinet.
• The gap between the door and cabinet is typically 10mm allowing the door gasket to act correctly (Figure 4).
NOTE: Ensure the gasket acts correctly, i.e. doesn’t make a noise or leave gaps when the door i s closed. -
Recap hinge cover into position.

** NOTE: For single door models, the door handle must be completely removed to provide clearance to the cupboard door and the resulting handle mounting holes hidden w ith a cover. Installer must use a tape or plastic cover that suits the installation appearance (not supplied). -
While the slide-housing is taped in position, punch a small hole in the refrigerator door skin corresponding to the four (4) holes in the housing (Figure 5).
-
The holes should be punched, not drilled, to ensure the maximum thread can be formed in the metal.
-
Screw four (4) refrigerator screws into the holes securing the housing in place. The refrigerator screws are supplied in kit (Figure 6).
if you have a two door refrigerator, repeat this process for the other door.
Figure 5 Figure 6
Placing refrigerator in cupboard
- Ensure cupboard is level and square.
- Put refrigerator into cupboard. Use caution and two people if necessary.
- Insert slide bars into slide-housings (Figure 7).

INSTALLATION (CONTINUED)
REFRIGERATOR ALIGNME NT
Position the refrigerator in the cupboard so that:
-
Top hinge bracket is against cupboard wall (Figure 8). Front of refrigerator cabinet (with doors open) is parallel to and approximately 100mm from the
front of the cupboard (Figure 9). -
Position bottom location brackets as shown (Figures 9 & 9a). Fit foot in appropriate hole as shown and level refrigerator. (Figure 10).
-
NOTE: Do not screw in place yet. For improved aesthetic we suggest painting the brackets to match the colour of the cupboard floor.
NOTE: The front adjustable rollers may need raising (rotate anti- clockwise when viewed from above) to achieve this.
Figure 8
Top Hinge Bracket fitted – note the space between the cupboard and the side of the refrigerator is to be approximately 85mm.
_ Figure 9
Figure 9a – Hinge side
Figure 10

Slowly close the cupboard door (pushing the refrigerator back) until it is slightly ajar, i.e. with a gap of about 4mm (Figure 11).
You may have to reposition the refrigerator back or forward until the 4mm gap is obtained. Ensure that the refrigerator remains parallel as you do this. Once you have the correct gap, proceed to the next step .
Figure 11
NOTE: The gap is left to ensure the refrigerator door will be allowed to close fully for a good gasket seal.
SECURING THE REFRIGERATOR IN THE CUPBOARD
NOTE: When attaching all screws to cupboard, first drill a 2mm pilot hole in the correct position. This will allo w easy hand insertion of self tapping screw.
- Screw in top hinge bracket to the cupboard wall using 4 cupboard screws provided. This will secure the top of the refrigerator (Figure 12).
- Screw down both foot brackets to cupboard floor with 2 cupboard screws. This will secure the bottom of the refrigerator (Figure 13.)
