Placing and Installation
Choosing the Right Place
Place the appliance in a dry and regularly ventilated room.
Allowed ambient temperature depends on the model (class) of
the appliance and is stated on the rating plate of the appliance.
Never place the appliance near heat emitting devices (e.g.
cooker, radiator, water heater or similar devices) and do not
expose it to direct sunlight.
The appliance should be positioned at least 3 cm away from
the electric or gas cooker and at least 30 cm away from the oil
or coal stove. If this is not possible, use an appropriate
insulation.
Class
Ambient temparature
SN (subnormal)
from + 10°C to + 32°C
N (normal)
from + 16°C to + 32°C
Connection to Power Supply
Connect the appliance with the cable and plug to the power
supply socket outlet with a ground terminal (safety socket).
Required nominal voltage and frequency are indicated on the
rating plate.
The connection to the mains supply and earthing have to be
made according to current standards and regulations. The
appliance resists temporary voltage tolerance up to
-6 to +6 %.
Adjusting the height of the appliance
The appliance is equipped with four adjustable legs, so that the
height may be adjusted from 82 to 90 cm. The height must be
