Installation instructions (all models)
4. Installation
Your Fisher & Paykel Active Smart™ refrigerator is fitted
with front and rear rollers, designed for moving the
product in the forwards and backwards direction.
Avoid moving the product in a sideways direction as this
may damage the rollers or the floor covering/surface.
A
Your refrigerator will arrive with the front feet wound
up making moving the product into its final location a
simple task.
B
Roll the refrigerator into its final position making sure
there is the correct air gap between the product and
surrounding cabinetry. See minimum clearance in
cabinetry dimensions table (refer to page 7).
(RF540A model only)
C
Adjust the front feet down until the refrigerator is leaning
backward with the front approximately 10 mm higher
than the back. This will ensure a good door closing
action. (Refer to Fig.10).
