Do not place any appliance which
gives off heat, such as a toaster or
microwave oven, on top of this
appliance, as this would increase
the appliance’s energy consumption.
If the appliance is being placed next
to another refrigerator or freezer,
there must be a gap between them
of at least 2 cm to allow for
ventilation.
Otherwise there is the risk of
corrosion damage.
Location
The appliance should be installed in a
dry, well-ventilated room.
The room temperature should not go
above or below the climate range for
which the appliance is designed.
The higher the ambient temperature of
the room, the more energy the
appliance requires to operate.
It should not be installed where it is
exposed to direct sunlight or directly
adjacent to a heat-producing appliance
such as an oven or a radiator.
Climate range
The appliance is designed for use
within certain climate ranges (ambient
temperatures), and should not be used
outside this range. The climate range of
the appliance is stated on the data
plate inside the appliance.

Operating in a room which is too cold
will cause the cooling system to switch
off for too long causing the internal
temperature in the appliance to rise
with the risk of frozen food defrosting.
Ventilation
Air at the back of the appliance gets
warm. To ensure sufficient ventilation,
the ventilation grilles must not be
covered over. The air inlet and outlet
must not be covered or blocked in any
way. They should be dusted on a
regular basis.
Installation
^
Remove any cable clips from the
back of the appliance.
