Installation Instructions
LOCATION
Selecting the proper location will ensure peak performance levels for your appliance. Choose a location where the unit
will not be exposed to heat emitting sources (e.g. a fi replace or a barbeque). The beverage centre should not be exposed
to direct sunlight. Do not use product near water, for example in a wet basement, near a swimming pool or sink.
PREPARING THE ENCLOSURE
Tools you will need:
While performing installations described in this section, gloves and safety glasses or goggles should be worn.
Electrical Requirements:
The appliance must be connected to an individual, properly grounded electrical outlet, protected by a 15 or 20 ampere
circuit breaker or time delay fuse.
•
It is recommended that you do not install the unit into a corner (i.e. directly beside a wall). This is to allow the door to
have a greater than 90° opening swing. A limited door swing may lead to damaging the door gasket, however, if it is
necessary to install the unit in a corner, be sure to allow 2-4 inches of clearance at each side.
•
The rough cabinet opening must be on a level fl oor area and at least 25" (63.5 cm) deep by 24" (60.96 cm) wide
(min). The opening should also have a height of at least 34 9/16" (86.8 cm).
•
The electrical outlet may be positioned from within either side of the adjacent cabinetry, or the rear of the shaded area
(as shown in Fig. 2).
•
If the electrical outlet is located inside the adjacent cabinetry, cut a 1-1/2" (3.81 cm) diameter hole to admit the power
cord. If the cabinet wall is metal, the hole edge must be covered with a bushing or grommet.
NOTE: This unit is front breathing. Do not
block the front air vent. Blockage of the vent
will result in high operating temperatures and
system failure.
