INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
• The appliance must be placed at a distance of about 5 cm from the wall, back and sides
of a cupboard. A kitchen cupboard above the refrigerator must have a gap of at least 5 cm
between the back of the cupboard and the wall. This is needed to make sure that there is
sufficient cooling air for the condenser.
• The plug of the installed appliance must remain accessible!
Place the appliance in a room with a sufficient volume of air. The room must have a
volume of at least 1 m
3
of air for every 8 grams of refrigerant. The quantity of
refrigerant is shown on the type plate on the inside of the appliance.
• The kitchen unit in which the appliance is to be built in must have an opening of at least
200 cm
2
in its base to allow sufficient air to circulate.
• The appliance’s air outlet is at the top. Make sure that the outlet is not blocked. Blocking the
outlet can result in damage to the appliance.
Warning:
An anti-condensation accessory must be installed before built-in appliances are
installed next to each other in a cupboard or surround.
For safety reasons, this must
be installed by a recognized installer!
Connecting the appliance
• Connect the appliance to the power supply with a plug. The socket must be earthed. The
nominal voltage and frequency required for the appliance are shown on the appliance’s type
plate/label with basic information.
• The appliance must be connected to the mains and earthed in accordance with the
prevailing standards and regulations. The appliance can withstand small variations in the

When you are not going to use the appliance for a longer period then switch it off with
the appropriate key and disconnect it from the mains. Empty, defrost and clean the
appliance, and leave the door ajar.
