Solution
Learn how to install your new AEG fridge for a Seamless Fit, leaving a small gap either side for the most integrated look possible.
Location
To ensure appliance's best functionality, you should not install the appliance in a place with direct sunlight.
Do not install the appliance close to radiators or cookers, ovens, or hobs, unless otherwise specified in the installation instructions.
This appliance should be installed in a dry, well-ventilated indoor position.
This appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperature ranging from 10°C to 43°C.
Electrical Connection
Ensure easy access to the power plug when installing the refrigerator. To prevent the refrigerator from accidentally losing power, plug it into a dedicated outlet.
Do not plug any other appliances into the outlet used by the refrigerator and do not use extension cords or multi-socket adapters, as they may fall from the wall outlet under the weight of several power cords.
Ventilation requirements
Refrigerator Door Flush with Cabinets To achieve a flush refrigerator door with the cabinets, a side clearance of 4mm must be maintained on both the left and right sides of the unit.
Installing the refrigerator
This appliance is intended to be used as a slot-in appliance or freestanding appliance.
Select a good location to place your appliance where it is flat and easy to use.
Avoid placing the unit near heat sources, direct sunlight or moisture.
Refrigerator + Cabinet Body Dimensions
- Before pushing the refrigerator into the cabinet, pull the power cord through the power cord hole on the side panel or top panel to provide separate power on/off.
- Push the refrigerator parallel into the cabinet
Adjust the alignment and gap between the refrigerator and the cabinet
- There are two adjustable feet on both sides of the front bottom of the refrigerator. Insert a flathead screwdriver into the groove of the adjustable foot and rotate clockwise to raise the front of the refrigerator, or counterclockwise to lower it. By adjusting the two feet, achieve a smooth alignment between the refrigerator door and cabinet surface, and even gaps between the left and right sides of the refrigerator and the cabinet.
- If the gaps between the refrigerator and the cabinet on the left and right sides are uneven, slightly move the refrigerator to achieve uniform gaps.
Fixing the Refrigerator and the Cabinet
Note: To avoid a hazard due to instability of the appliance, it must be fixed.
- The left and right upper hinge plates of the refrigerator have threaded holes. Use flat head cross screws to pre-fix (without tightening) the refrigerator fixing connection plate to the upper hinge plate. Use countersunk cross self-tapping screws to fix the refrigerator connection plate to the cabinet body, then tighten the flat head cross screws.
The fixing method for the refrigerator fixing connection plates on both sides is the same.
Installation of Bottom Air Inlet/Outlet Grille
- During this operation, both sides of the refrigerator doors/drawers must be open.
- There are 4 fixing clips on the bottom air inlet/outlet grille. Align them with the 4 fixing clips on the refrigerator, then push the air inlet/outlet grille down into place to complete the installation.
