INSTALLING THE REFRIGERATOR
Be careful when installing the refrigerator models
NDM1062 & NDR1292. These are equipped with the
latest vacuum insulated panel technology. The insu-
lating panels are located on the top, back, bottom,
sides and doors. If the surface is punctured, loss of
insulation will occur, resulting in poor refrigerator
performance.
For a proper installation, follow these instructions:
Make sure the fl oor is solid and level.
The refrigerator must be level and installed in a substantial
enclosure.
Do not install the appliance directly on carpeting. Carpet-
ing 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.

A wood strip must be in place across the up-
per opening of the enclosure. The top frame
of the refrigerator will be anchored to the
wood strip with screws.
When installing the refrigerator in the enclosure, all areas
within the recess have to be sealed. Verify 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 seal-
ing strip is applied to the rear surface of the front frame for
this purpose. The sealing strip should provide a complete
isolation of the appliance’s combustion system from the
vehicle interior.
RM2351 and RM2354: Apply a sealing strip to the foremost
oor of the enclosure.
Be careful not to damage the sealing strip when the
refrigerator is put in place!
SECURING THE REFRIGERATOR
It is important to follow the sequence in securing refrigerator
in enclosure since failure in doing so can cause leakage be-
tween the frame and cabinet. Any space between the counter,
storage area or ceiling and top of the refrigerator greater than
1 1/2 inches should be blocked. The heat produced at the rear
of the refrigerator will become trapped in this space, making
the top of the refrigerator hot and reduce the effi ciency of the
refrigerator.
After the refrigerator is put in place (ensuring a combustion
seal at the front frame), the refrigerator is to be secured in the
enclosure with screws (not included).
RM2351 & RM2354
Install the fi ve screws in the following order:
Four screws installed through the front frame.1.
(To cover the screw heads, use the plugs in the parts
bag.)
One screw installed in the rear base. 2.
