To prevent the formation of a fl am-
mable gas-air mixture in the event of
a leakage in the refrigeration circuit,
the installation space must have a
minimum size of 1 m
3
per 8 g of refrig-
erant in compliance with the EN 378
standard. The amount of refrigerant
contained in your appliance can be
found on the data sheet (see ‘Techni-

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 1 m³ per 8 g
of refrigerant in compliance with the EN 378
standard. The amount of refrigerant con-
tained in your appliance can be found on the
data sheet at the end of this user manual.
The minimum size of the area in which your
appliance is set up is as follows: 5.25 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 ar-
eas that are cool if possible.
Unsuitable locations are ones with direct sun-
light or which are directly next to an oven, hob
or radiator.
If underfloor heating is installed at the set-up
location, place the cooling appliance on an
insulation plate made from solid material.
