Ventilation
The refrigeration unit is ventilated only via
the ventilation grille in the base. Never cover
the ventilation grille or place anything in front of it.
Otherwise the refrigeration unit must work harder,
increasing the power consumption.
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.
Undercounter
An attachment under certain worktops, e.g. stone,
glass or stainless steel, is frequently not possible. You
can order accessories from customer service for
installation on the side walls.
Connecting the appliance
After installing the appliance, wait at least 1 hour until
the appliance is switched on. During transportation
the oil in the compressor may have flowed into
the refrigeration system.
Before switching on the appliance for the first time,
clean the interior of the appliance (see chapter
“Cleaning the appliance”).
Electrical connection
The socket must be near the appliance and also freely
accessible following installation of the appliance.
The appliance complies with the protection class I.
Connect the appliance to 220-240 V/50 Hz alternating
current via a correctly installed socket with protective
conductor. The socket must be fused with a 10 to 16 A
fuse.
For appliances operated in non-European countries,
check whether the stated voltage and current type
match the values of your mains supply. These
specifications can be found on the rating plate.
