Fridge Fun

Post by ELSwervo »

I have finaly just got a new,(old) fridge to replace the old one that didn't work. The new one is a RM121F and is nice and cold tested on 240V. The door is the same size as the old one so I want to change the trim panel over. The old door panel was easy to remove, this had screws on the bottom of the door, the new 121 trim does not. How do you get the trim panel out/in? I am loathed to start pulling things about as I don't want to break something.There is a join on the bottom but no apparent method of separating it. Anyone know?
The other thing I would like to know, is where the indicators are positioned on the knobs and how they correspond to the position they are in on the fridge. I didn't get knobs with it so used the old ones from the other fridge, that have no indicators, just numbers. Does anyone follow this question? so, if the knob(s) is fully counter clockwise, where is the indicator position?
(I have the pdf manual)

Any other info, greatly appreciated. I have not yet fitted it. :)

Sure it's not an RM212F? 3 way?

Anyway, don't know how to remove the trim - are the doors interchangable so you can just swap them?


Front of RM212F fridge with all knobs in the 'Off' position, Left to right; electronic ignition switch, gas knob, 240v thermostat knob, 240v/OFF/12v selector switch.

E D I T: had "12v" twice in the last switch description so changed it to read 240v - sorry about that :oops:

Of course you are quite right, I wrote it down wrong :roll:
The Doors are different sizes, I have just found. Got the old trim out with a bit of force, but not too much. but its too big! so its modification or sticky-back plastic time!

Thanks for the knobs answer! exactly what I needed to know. I can now mark up my Knobs accordingly. :D
