Installing Your New Refrigerator

Clean the refrigerator thoroughly according to instruction, and wipe away any dust that has accumulated during shipping.

Check that the floor is level. If it is not then adjust the provided levelling leg so product is level and stable.

We recommend that you let your refrigerator run for two to three hours before you put any food in it. This will allow you to check that it is operating properly and that enough cool air is going to the freezer.

Clearance around your Top and Bottom Mount refrigerator

• Allow a minimum of 30mm clearance on both sides of the refrigerator.
• Allow 50mm clearance at the back of the refrigerator.
• Allow a minimum of 10mm clearance above the hinge cover.
• If you do not have a cupboard with allowance for air flow above the refrigerator, the recommended clearance area on top increases to 90 mm.
• When positioned in a corner area, spacing of at 350mm on the hinge side will allow the doors to open enough to enable the removal of bins and shelves.

NOTE: In installations where both sides and the rear of the refrigerator are not enclosed by cabinetry (e.g., the refrigerator is placed against a wall), the clearance between the rear of the refrigerator and the wall should not be greater than 75mm.

Your refrigerator uses energy efficient components that may produce different noises (refer to the "Noises" page for examples) compared to your old refrigerator. Occasionally, a gurgling sound of refrigerant flowing or the sound of parts expanding and contracting can be heard. These noises are quite normal.

Installing your refrigerator

1. Roll the refrigerator into place. The rollers are designed for forward or backward movement only. They are not castors. Moving the refrigerator sideways may damage your floor and the rollers. Before moving your refrigerator, ensure the height adjusting nut and the stability foot are fully wound up off the floor.
2. Wind the height adjusting nut under the door hinge down until the refrigerator is tilted back by 10mm (see diagram).

1. Wind the height adjusting nut on the handle side down until the refrigerator is level and stable. If you have difficulty winding the nut or height adjusting foot down, have someone tilt the refrigerator back so you have better access.

1. Check the alignment of the refrigerator to the surrounding cupboards to see if it is level. You can adjust the level as detailed in steps 2 and 3.

Cleaning Your Refrigerator

Exterior

You should only clean your refrigerator with lukewarm soapy water and a soft cloth. Rinse with clean water and then wipe the surface with a soft clean cloth to remove any soap residue.

Interior

You should clean the refrigerator interior regularly. Wash the interior with a soft cloth and lukewarm soapy water. Thoroughly dry all surfaces and removable parts. Avoid getting water on refrigerator controls. If you have taken out any removable parts, replace them and switch the power on before restocking the refrigerator with food. Naturally, you should keep the interior of your refrigerator hygienic by promptly and thoroughly wiping up any food spills.

WARNING

Never use hot water, solvents, commercial, caustic or abrasive cleaners, or scourers to clean this appliance as they will damage it. Many commercially available cleaning products and detergents contain solvents that will damage your refrigerator. When cleaning, use only a soft cloth and lukewarm soapy water.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

When you first turn on the refrigerator, set both the refrigerator and freezer temperature control to normal. Please refer to the below section for information on adjusting refrigerator and freezer temperature.

TIPS AND INFORMATION

When you set a temperature, you set an average temperature for the whole refrigerator cabinet.

Checking the softness of ice cream is a good indication that your freezer is at the right temperature, while checking the temperature of water kept in the refrigerator is a good way of checking the temperature of the food compartment.

Temperatures inside each compartment may vary, depending on how much food you store and where you place it.

High or low room temperature may also affect the actual temperature inside the refrigerator.

When you change the temperature settings, make small adjustments and wait 24 hours before assessing whether you need to make any further changes.

For Top Freezer models

Freezer temperature setting recommendation

Summer (Higher than 35°C)

Set to normal

Winter (Under 15°C)

TIPS AND INFORMATION

Setting the freezer temperature to colder is not recommended for normal or very hot climate conditions, as this will limit the cooling capacity to other sections of the refrigerator. In very cold climates, the freezer will need to be set colder.

Refrigerator temperature adjustment

1. Select the refrigerator control
2. Slide the control to the left to set it to colder

TROUBLESHOOTING

If you find that something is wrong with your refrigerator, you can carry out some easy checks before calling for service. You may be able to fix the problem and save time and costs, and spare yourself from some inconvenience.

Problem Solution

When your appliance is not operating

• Check that the power cord is plugged into the power outlet properly and that the outlet is switched on.
• Try running another appliance from the same power outlet. If no power is coming out from the outlet, you may have a blown fuse or tripped your household power supply circuit.
• Try adjusting the temperature control to a slightly colder position.
• It is normal for the freezer fan to NOT operate during the automatic defrost cycle or for a short time after the refrigerator is turned on.

When there is refrigerator noise

• Your refrigerator uses energy efficient components that may produce different noises from your old refrigerator.
• Occasionally, a gurgling sound of the refrigerant flowing or the sound of parts contracting or expanding may be heard. These sounds are quite normal. If the refrigerator is rattling or making vibrating noises, check that it is level and adjust the levelling foot.

If there are odours inside the refrigerator

The interior may need cleaning. Some foods may produce strong odours and need to be tightly sealed.

If the temperature in the refrigerator is too warm

• Check that the refrigerator has enough clearance at the sides, back and top. Refer to the installation instructions in this manual. Refer to 'Temperature Control' section.
• The door may have been opened for too long or too frequently.
• Food containers or packaging may be holding the door open.

If the temperature in the refrigerator is too cold
