INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
3.1 Choice of location and ventilation
Always place the appliance in a dry place with satisfactory ventilation. Never expose it to direct sunlight
or install it outdoors. Depending on its climate class (stated on the nameplate inside), the appliance can
be used in different temperature conditions.
The compressor type cooling system produces heat and requires good ventilation so rooms with poor
ventilation are not very suitable.
The minibar should be installed in a room in which there is a ventilation opening and it is essential not
to obstruct the grilles that allow the appliance to be well ventilated. Avoid positioning the appliance
where it is exposed to directly sunlight or close to other sources of heat. If this is unavoidable, in order
to prevent the proper operation of the product from being compromised, a suitable insulation board
must be used. Otherwise, locate the appliance at least 3 cm away from electrical or gas cookers and at
least 30 cm away from combustion heaters or radiators.
Minimum installation distances:
from the back: 32mm
from the sides: 15mm
from the floor: 7mm (feet adjusted to the minimum, completely screwed in);
25 mm (maximum feet length) if the clearance at the sides is less than 20 mm.
Class
Ambient temperature
SN (Subnormal)
from + 10° C to + 32° C
N (Normal)
from + 16° C to + 32° C
ST (Subtropical)
from + 18° C to + 38° C
T (Tropical)
from + 18° C to + 43° C
To allow proper cooling of the condenser, the minibar must not
be placed too close to the wall. To prevent this, there are two
plastic spacers at the lower back of the appliance.
Position the appliance so that the
door can be opened fully.
Take care not to scratch or damage the floor when installing the
appliance on parquet or linoleum. If necessary, when positioning
slide the appliance over pieces of wood or a mat to the point
decided for connection to the electrical mains.
