Installing the appliance

Have a technician install and connect the appliance 
according to the enclosed installation instructions.

Transporting

The appliances are heavy and must be secured during 
transportation and installation.

Because of the weight / dimensions of the appliance 
and to minimise the risk of injuries and damage to 
the appliance at least two persons are necessary to 
set-up the appliance securely.

Installation location

A dr y, well ventilated room is suitable as an 
installation location. The installation location should 
not be exposed to direct sunlight and not placed near 
a heat source, e.g. a cooker, radiator, etc. If 
installation next to a heat source is unavoidable, use 
a suitable insulating plate or obser ve the following 
minimum distances from the heat source:

3 cm to electric or gas cookers.

30 cm to an oil or coal-fired cooker.

The floor of the installation location must not give 
way; if required, reinforce floor. To ensure that the ice 
maker functions correctly, the appliance must be 
upright.

Ambient temperature and ventilation

Ambient temperature

The climate class can be found  on the rating plate. 
The climate class indicates within which ambient 
temperatures the appliance can be operated.

Note

The appliance is fully functional within the room 
temperature limits of the indicated climatic class. If 
an appliance of climatic class SN is operated 
at colder room temperatures, the appliance will not 
be damaged  up to a temperature of +5 °C.

Ventilation

Conduction of the heated air must not be obstructed. 
Other wise, the refrigeration unit must work harder. 
This increases power consumption. Therefore: Never 
cover or block the ventilation opening!
