NOTICE*
The stainless steel doors are provided with a high-quality
surface coating and must not be treated using the accompa-
nying care product.
Otherwise the surface coating will be affected.
u
Wipe the coated door surfaces using a soft, clean cloth
only.
u
Apply a stainless steel cleaner only to the stainless steel
side walls evenly, wiping with the grain. Subsequent
cleaning becomes easier as a result.

Wipe side walls with a paint finish using a soft, clean
cloth only.

The spacers supplied with some appliances must be used to
achieve the stated energy consumption. These will extend the
depth of the appliance by approx. 35 mm. The appliance is fully
functional if the spacers are not used, but does have a slightly
higher energy consumption.

In the case of an appliance with
enclosed wall spacers, mount the
wall spacers on the back of the
appliance at the top left and right.
u
Dispose of packaging material (see 4.5) .

Align the appliance so that it
stands firmly and on a level by
applying the accompanying
spanner to the adjustable-
height feet (A) and using a
spirit level.

Then support the door: Extend
the adjustable foot at the turn
hinge (B) until it rests on the
floor and then make a further
90° turn.
