If your refrigerator is installed under a continuous work-
top, an air outlet opening of at least 200 cm
2
and a ven-
tilation grille (A/B) matching the worktop design should
be provided at the rear of the worktop.
The cut surfaces of the worktop (C) should be varnished
to avoid swelling due to penetration of moisture.
The appliance wall distance must be at least 30 mm and
should be checked before the ventilation grille is insert-
ed.
Special accessories:
A Ventilation grille, brown
B Ventilation grille, white
If installation next to a source of heat is unavoidable, the following minimum clearances must be main-
tained at the sides of the appliance:
– for electric cookers 3 cm;
– for oil and coal fired ranges 30 cm.
If these clearances cannot be maintained a heat insulating pad is required between the cooker and the
refrigeration appliance.
If the refrigeration appliance is installed next to another refrigerator or freezer a clearance of 5 cm at
the sides is required, in order to prevent the formation of condensation on the outside of the appliance.
Your refrigerator needs air
The refrigerating unit of your refrigerator is designed for maintenance-free operation. What it should
never lack is good ventilation. Air is supplied under the door through the ventilation slot between the
refrigerator an storage surface. Air is extracted through the upper ventilation grille. Never obstruct these
openings by plinth screens or crockery.
