– To prevent the formation of a flammable
gas-air mixture in the event of a leakage
in the refrigeration circuit, the installation
space must have a minimum size of 3 m³.
– The appliance must only be placed on a
level and firm surface. The surface must be
strong enough to support the appliance’s
weight when fully laden.
– Suitable locations are dry, well-ventilated
areas that are cool if possible.
– Unsuitable locations are ones with direct
sunlight or which are directly next to an
oven, hob or radiator.
– The following minimum distances must be
maintained:
– from electrical hobs
3 cm
– from oil and coal burning stoves 30cm
– from other cooling appliances
2 cm
– from washing machines/
dishwashers
2 cm
– If you would like to reduce these distances,
you can fit an insulation plate between the
appliances.
– If underfloor heating is installed at the set-
up location, place the cooling appliance on
an insulation plate made from solid material.
Setting up and aligning the
appliance
1. Place the appliance on as flat and as firm
a base as possible.
2. To ensure adequate air circulation,
– the entire space above the appliance
must be clear.
– the appliance should not stand directly
against the wall (leave a minimum dis-
tance of 5 cm),
– the clearance from the air vents to the
wall, to cabinets or to other devices must
be at least 15 cm.
3. Check the position with a spirit level.
4. Level out any unevenness on the ground
using both of the front screw feet.
– Close the door.
– Tilt the appliance backwards slightly and
screw/unscrew the screw feet.
– Stand the appliance back up again and
check the alignment with a spirit level.
Repeat the process until the appliance
is standing up vertically. The appliance
should not move when opening the door.
