Airflow
To ensure adequate air circulation,
– the chest freezer should not stand directly
against the wall. Leave at least 15 cm from
the wall, cabinets and other appliances.
– the ventilation grilles must remain clear
and must not be covered.
– the entire area above the chest freezer
must be unobstructed.
Cooling capacity
To achieve the highest possible cooling per-
formance with the least energy consumption,
choose a location that:
– is not too warm, is dry and well ventilated,
– is not in direct sunlight.
It is recommended not to place it next to an
oven, stove or radiator. Abide by minimum
distances:
– to electric stoves: 15 cm,
– to oil and coal burning stoves: 30 cm,
– to refrigerators: 15 cm,
– to washing machines/dishwashers: 15 cm.
If underfloor heating is installed in the room
where the chest freezer is to be installed,
place an insulating plate of solid material un-
der the chest freezer.

align
