<h2 class="tit">Check the installation location</h2>
<p>
Check if the installation space is sufficient for the size of the product to be purchased or installed.
</p>    <p>
When installing the refrigerator, make sure to maintain clearance between the unit and the side walls, as well
as the rear wall.<br/> Maintain a minimum gap of 2 cm between the top of the refrigerator door and the kitchen
cabinet.<br/> Install the unit in a place where the ambient temperature is higher than 5℃ and lower than 43℃, and
avoid installation near heat sources. <br/>Ensure that the floor is firm and level. Additionally, choose a
location with low humidity and good ventilation.
</p>    <br/>

<h2 class="tit">Check the space requirements for door opening.</h2>
<p>
The side space required to open the refrigerator door to the maximum angle varies depending on the type of
refrigerator.<br/> Please ensure to check the width requirements for your specific model.<br/> This will ensure
that you
have enough space to install the refrigerator and can open and close the door without any inconvenience.
