Installation location
A dry, well ventilated room is suitable as
an installation location. The installation
location should not be exposed to direct
sunlight and not placed 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 from the heat source:
■
3 cm to electric or gas cookers.
■
30 cm to an oil or coal-fired cooker.
The floor of the installation location must
not give way; if required, reinforce floor. If
the floor is uneven, compensate with
supports.
Distance from wall
Fig. #
A gap is not required between the
appliance and side wall. The containers
and shelves are still fully extendable.
Reversing the door
(if required)
If required, we recommend that you have
the door hinges changed over by our
customer service. You can find out the
costs for changing over the door hinges
from your appropriate customer service.
m
Warning
While changing over the door hinges,
ensure that the appliance is not
connected to the power supply. Pull out
the mains plug beforehand. To prevent
damaging the back of the appliance,
place adequate padding underneath.
Carefully place the appliance on its
back.
Note
If the appliance is placed on its back,
ensure that the wall spacer is not fitted.
Ambient temperature
and ventilation
Ambient temperature
The appliance is designed for a specific
climate class. Depending on the climate
class, the appliance can be operated at
the following temperatures.
The climate class can be found on
the rating plate. Fig. *
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
Fig. $
The air on the rear panel of the
appliance heats up. Conduction of the
heated air must not be obstructed.
Otherwise, the refrigerating unit must
work harder. This increases power
consumption. Therefore: Never cover
or block the ventilation openings!
