of space per 8 grams of refrigerant. Amount of refrigerant is stated
on the rating plate in the appliance interior.
INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE
Appliance installation should be carried out
by at least two persons to avoid any
physical injury or damage to the appliance.
• The appliance must stand level and stable
on a solid base. At the front, the appliance
is fi tted with two adjustable legs that can
be used to level the appliance. At the rear
side, casters allow for easier installation of
the appliance (only with some models).
• There should be a clearance of at least 5 cm
between the appliance and any cupboard
installed above it, in order to allow adequate
cooling of the condenser unit.
• The appliance is supplied with two
spacers which should be installed on
the lower part of the housing to prevent
from pushing the appliance too close to
the wall. Appliance may also be installed
without the spacers; however, this may
increase power consumption.
