Installing the appliance

Transporting

The appliance is heavy. Secure in position during
transportation and installation.
Due to the weight/dimensions of the appliance and to
minimise the risk of injury and damage to the
appliance at least two persons are necessary to set-up
the appliance safely.

Installation location

Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room.
The installation location should neither be exposed
to direct sunlight nor near a heat source, e.g.
a cooker, radiator, etc. If installation next to a heat
source is unavoidable, use a suitable insulating plate
or observe the following minimum distances to a heat
source:
▯
3 cm to electric or gas cookers.
▯
30 cm to an oil or coal-fired cooker.
If installing the appliance next to another refrigerator
or freezer, ensure a minimum lateral distance of 25
mm to prevent the formation of condensation.
If a panel or cupboard is installed above
the appliance, ensure that a gap of 30 mm is left so
that the appliance can be pulled out of the recess
if required.
The air heated on the rear side of the appliance must
be allowed to escape unhindered.

Subsurface

Caution
The appliance is very heavy.
The weight of the appliance may be up to 165 kg
depending on the model.
The floor of the installation location must not give
way; if required, reinforce floor.
To ensure that the doors can open all the way, observe
lateral minimum distances when installing
the appliance in a corner or recess (see chapter
"Installation dimensions").
If the depth of the adjacent kitchen equipment is more
than 60 cm, observe lateral minimum distances
in order to utilise the full door opening angle (see
chapter "Door opening angle").
Observe ambient temperature
and ventilation
Ambient temperature
The climate class can be found on the rating plate.
The climate class indicates within which ambient
temperatures the appliance can be operated.
The rating plate is located in the refrigerator
compartment at the right side.
Climate Permitted ambient temperature
class
SN +10 °C to 32 °C
N +16 °C to 32 °C
ST +16 °C to 38 °C
T +16 °C to 43 °C
Note
The appliance is fully functional within the room
temperature limits of the indicated climatic class. If
an appliance of climatic class SN is operated
at colder room temperatures, the appliance will not
be damaged up to a temperature of +5 °C.
Ventilation
Never cover the ventilation openings on the rear
of the appliance. Conduction of the heated air must
not be obstructed. Otherwise, the refrigeration unit
must work harder. This increases power consumption.
Place the enclosed spacers in the designated holders
on the back of the appliance. This ensures that there
is a minimum distance between the appliance and
the wall.
