Warning
Redundant appliances
1. Pull out the mains plug.
2. Cut off the power cord and discard with the mains
plug.

Installing the appliance
Transporting
The appliances are heavy and must be secured during
transportation and installation.
Because of the weight / dimensions of the appliance
and to minimise the risk of injuries and damage to
the appliance at least two persons are necessary to
set-up the appliance securely.
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.
