Installation
Installation room
Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room.
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:
–
1
1
/
4
” (3 cm) to electric or gas cookers.
–
from an oil or solid-fuel cooker 11
13
/
16
" (30 cm).
Ambient temperature
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.
Installation cavity
It is important to observe the specified dimensions
of the installation cavity for a trouble-free installation
of the appliance and for the subsequent general view
of the furniture front.
In particular ensure that the cavity is square.
Squareness can be checked by suitable means, e.g. spirit
level, diagonal measurements, etc.
Furniture/Fixtures
The new appliance will be mounted securely to adjacent and
overhead furniture/fixtures.
For this reason it is essential that all attachable furniture/
fixtures are connected securely to the base or the wall
by suitable means. If making structural changes fix the
appliance in place again corresponding to the the installation
instructions.
Base
To ensure that the appliance is installed securely and
functions properly, the base must be flat and level.
The base must be made of hard, rigid material.
The installation area must be the same height as the rest
of the room.
On account of the heavy weight of a fully loaded appliance,
a load-bearing base is required.
For fully-loaded weight see the following table:
–
Wine unit 18”
550 Ibs/245 kg
–
Wine unit 24”
690 Ibs/310 kg
If in doubt, contact an architect or a building expert.
