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.

Caution
The appliance is very heavy.
Model with dispenser: 143 kg
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 bottom right side.
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.
