WARNING
Never connect the appliance to electronic energy
saver plugs. Our appliances can be used with
mains and sine-controlled inverters. Mains-
controlled inverters are used for photovoltaic
systems which are connected directly to the
national grid. Sine-controlled inverters must be
used for isolated applications (e.g. on ships or in
mountain lodges) which are not connected
directly to the national grid.
Water connection
ã
CAUTION
Connect the appliance to a drinking water line.
The water may be connected only by a competent fitter
according to the local regulations of the appropriate
water supply company.
A cold water connection is necessary for operating the
automatic ice maker. The water pressure must be
between 25 and 120 p.s.i. (1,72 and 8,25 bar).
The installation must correspond to the local plumbing
regulations.
A separate shut-off valve should be installed in the cold-
water inflow. The shut-off valve should not be located
behind the appliance. It is recommended that you mount
the shut-off valve directly next to the appliance or at
another place which is easily accessible. When installing
the water connection, pay attention to the permissible
installation area for the water mains.
For connection to the drinking water mains use only
water pipes which are suitable for drinking water.
Observe national regulations and the connection
conditions of the local water supply companies.
When installing the water connection, observe the
permitted installation areas for the pipe. For the
permitted installation areas and dimensions see
“Dimensions of the installation niche”.
The maximum outside diameter of the water mains
(without connecting pieces) is
