Installation

Installation Location

The appliance should be set up in a well ventilated, dry room.
Energy use is affected by the ambient temperature.
The appliance should therefore
– not be exposed to direct sunlight;
– not be installed next to radiators, cookers or other sources of heat;
– only be installed at a location whose ambient temperature
corresponds to the climate classification, for which the appliance is
designed.
The climate classification can be found on the rating plate, which is
located at the left on the inside of the appliance.
The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for
each climate classification:

If the refrigeration appliance is installed next to another refrigerator or
freezer a clearance of 5 cm at the sides is required, in order to prevent
the formation of condensation on the outside of the appliance.

Grid preparation

The side at which the door opens can be changed from the right side
(as supplied) to the left side, if the instal-
lation site requires.

Warning!

When changing the side at 

which the door opens, remove 
plug from the mains.

Left door opening:

Remove the left side (A) of the grid 
cutting it from the rear (see figure).
Remove the right side (B) of the grid 
cutting it from the rear (see figure).
