IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CABINETS
Make sure that the cabinets where you will install the appliance have been safely
mounted in your kitchen. Your cabinets must be securely connected to the floor and
walls properly and with suitable connections.
For the best installation, clearances between cabinets and the product must be in
compliance with the values specified in this manual and in the Installation Manual for
ZLINE's built-in refrigeration models (RBIV-30 and RBIV-36).
Side walls must be free of any obstructions and their surfaces must be flat.
Note:
Minimum thickness of the side walls is 5/8" (16 mm). The minimum thickness of the
doors to be attached to the product must be 3/4" (19 mm).
VENTILATION
Ventilation panels where the air enters and exits the unit must not be blocked or
obstructed. In addition, you must periodically clean the dust and dirt that accumulates
on the vent holes to ensure adequate ventilation.
ATTENTION
Failure to follow these instructions may result in death, fire,
or electric shock. Connecting the grounding conductor of the
equipment to an improper place may lead to electric shock.
Please have the grounding checked by a qualified electrician or
service technician.
Installation, repair, and other procedures performed by
unqualified persons may cause danger. Before installing the
appliance, make sure that the voltage, load, and circuit current
parameters on the data plate are in compliance with the power
mains in your house.
If the electrical wiring or power supply of the house needs
alteration, the necessary procedures must be performed by
a qualified electrician. The plugs must be installed only by a
licensed electrician.
