Installation
Installation location
A dry, well ventilated room is suitable as an installation
location. The installation location should neither be
exposed to direct sunlight nor 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 observe the
following minimum distances to a heat source:
z
3 cm to an electric cooker.
z
30 cm to an oil or solid-fuel cooker.
The floor on which the appliance is to be installed must be
rigid. If required, reinforce the floor. To ensure that the ice
maker functions correctly, the appliance must be upright.
Observe ambient temperature and
ventilation
The climatic class can be found on the rating plate. It states
the room temperature within which the appliance can be
operated.
Ventilation
Never cover the ventilation openings in the base panel.
The cooling motor otherwise has to increase ist output,
and this increases the electricity consumption.
Fixing
For secure installation, the appliance screwed to
neighbouring kitchen furniture and/or units.
It is very important therefore that all bordering furniture
and/or units are fixed securely to the floor and/or walls.
If making structural changes fix the appliance in place
again corresponding to the the installation instructions.
Installation surface
A load-bearing base is necessary because of the heavy
weight of the fully laden appliance.
Refer to the following appliance weight table when loading
fully:
–
45.7 cm appliance
250 kg
–
61.0 cm appliance
350 kg
–
76.2 cm appliance
425 kg
In case of doubt, consult an architect or structural
engineer.
Installing and connecting the appliance
