We do not advise positioning the appliance
next to an oven, stove or radiator. The mini-
mum distances to such appliances are:
– from electric stoves
3 cm
– from oil and coal burning stoves
30 cm
– from refrigeration appliances
2 cm
– from washing machines/dishwashers 2 cm
If these distances cannot be maintained,
place an insulating plate in-between. If un-
derfloor heating is installed in the room where
the mini refrigerator is to be installed, place an
insulating plate of solid material underneath.
