INSTALLING REFRIGERATOR IN ENCLOSURE
NOTE: DO NOT install the appliance directly on carpeting. Carpeting must be removed or protected by a metal or wood panel beneath the appliance which extends at least full width and depth of the appliance. The refrigerator must be installed in a substantial enclosure and must be level. When installing the refrigerator in the enclosure, all areas within the recess in which the refrigerator is installed must be sealed. Make sure that there is a complete seal between the front frame of the refrigerator and the top, sides and bottom of the enclosure. A length of sealing strip is applied to the rear surface of the front frame for this purpose, see FIG. 6. The sealing should provide a complete isolation of the appliance�s combustion system from the vehicle interior. NOTE: Be careful not to damage the sealing strip when the refrigerator is put in place. 1

FIG. 8 3. Secure the refrigerator and the lower front strip with two screws: One screw through the hinge, and on the opposite side one screw through the lower front strip. (FIG. 8). Second: Two screws installed in the top frame.
Securing the Refrigerator
After the refrigerator is mounted in place, (ensuring a combustion seal at the front frame), the refrigerator is to be secured in the enclosure with six screws. The screws have to be installed in the following order: First: Two screws installed through the front base, which includes the lower front strip installation. The refrigerator is provided with a lower front strip (shipped as a loose part). The front strip is to be installed after the refrigerator is set into the cut-out opening. 1. Install the lower front strip by sliding it under the bottom hinge plate, as shown in FIG. 7. The hinge plate can be on the right or left side depending on the door swing.
Note: The upper part of the recess, where the wall meets the top frame of the refrigerator, must be equipped with a wooden crossbar in which the two screws can be installed, see FIG. 4 page 5. Before the screws can be mounted, the top decoration panel has to be removed, see FIG.9. Open the door and remove the top decoration panel by gently pushing the tab out of the rectangular hole in the hinge plate, (both sides) using a flat blade screw driver. Carefully tilt the top decoration panel and lift up to remove from top frame.
