– If you would like to reduce these distances,
you can fit an insulation plate between the
appliances.
– If underfloor heating is installed at the
set-up location, place the refrigerating ap-
pliance on an insulation plate made from
solid material.
Setting up and aligning the
appliance
1. Place the appliance on as flat and as firm
a base as possible.
2. To ensure adequate air circulation,
– keep the entire space above the appli-
ance free.
– do not place the appliance directly against
the wall. Leave a gap of at least 10 cm to
the back wall and 5 cm to the side.
3. Check the position with a spirit level.
4. Level out any unevenness on the ground
using the two front screw feet (3).
– Close the glass door (2).
– Tilt the appliance backwards slightly and
screw/unscrew the screw feet.
– Stand the appliance back up again and
check the alignment with a spirit level.
Repeat the process until the appliance
is standing up vertically. The appliance
should not move when opening the glass
door.
Cleaning before use
To remove the odour that comes with all new
appliances, clean the appliance before using it
(see ‘Care and maintenance’ on page EN-14).
