toasters, etc. on the appliance.
CAUTION
Risk of personal injury!
u
Have two people move this appliance into place.
NOTICE
Risk of damage caused by condensation
Installing the appliance next to any other refrigerator or
freezer can cause damage or condensation to the Liebherr
appliance.
u
Do not install this appliance next to any other refrigerator
or freezer except another Liebherr model. Liebherr
models are designed to allow side-by-side installation.
They are equipped with a heating system to eliminate
condensation when refrigerators or freezers are installed
side-by-side.
NOTICE
Risk of damage for the finished floor surface!
u
Protect the finished floor surface before you uncrate the
unit.
Verify that:
q
the floor under the appliance is flat and level.
q
the floor can support the appliance's weight plus
approximately 1200 pounds (544 kg) of food weight.
q
the appliance is not placed in direct sunlight or near the
stove, range top, radiators and similar heat sources.
q
the kitchen cabinet that the appliance is installed in is
shimmed to the floor level if the floor heights are not
equal.
q
cutout dimensions are accurate.
q
electrical outlet is in correct location.
q
the air flow is not restricted. Air flow must be provided for
the appliance to operate properly. The factory air vents
provide 31 square inches (200 cm2) of air flow per
appliance. If you are replacing the air vents with an
overlay, the air flow must be the same or greater than the
factory air vents.
2
u
Examine the unit and packaging for shipping damage.
Contact the carrier immediately if you suspect there is
any damage.
u
Note the type (model, number), index, appliance/serial
number, date of purchase and where purchased on the
spaces provided in see Appliance Information.
u
Remove anything attached to the rear or side walls of
appliance that would prevent proper installation or
impede proper ventilation.
If the appliance is set up in humid areas, condensation may
build on the outside of the appliance.
u
Always ensure proper ventilation.

4 Kitchen Cabinet Construction
This is a fully integrated appliance which means that it is
fully enclosed by a kitchen cabinet. This type of cabinet
must be carefully constructed using the proper dimensions
and it must provide proper ventilation to ensure proper
appliance operation.
Make a separate kitchen cabinet
for each appliance for Side-bySide installations.
Consider having a professional install the appliance in your
kitchen cabinet.
- The top ventilation space can be either directly over the
appliance
Fig. 4 (3)
Fig. 4 (2)
, or through a vent installed in a soffit
or next to the ceiling over a cabinet
Fig. 4 (4)
.
4.1 Kitchen Cabinet Airflow
Fig. 5
- There must be a clear ventilation space (without any
obstructions) of at least 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) at the back of
the kitchen cabinet.
u
Observe the above ventilation dimensions.
Ventilation through the cabinet base at the bottom can be
achieved by installing the provided ventilation grille
Fig. 6 (3)
(200 cm2). When using the provided ventilation grille
Fig. 6 (3)
or via a ventilation opening of at least 31 in
, please proceed as follows:

4.3 Designing the Kitchen Cabinet
Doors
Fig. 6
.
You need two doors for the kitchen cabinet, one on top for
the refrigerator compartment, and one on the bottom for the
freezer compartment.
In general, the doors have these characteristics:
The doors should be at least 5/8 in. (16 mm) and max.
3/4 in. (19 mm) thick to allow the connecting rails to be
fastened to them.
With both doors closed, there should be a minimum of
1/8 in. (3 mm) between the upper and lower doors.
Also, there should be an 1/8 in. (3 mm) clearance
between the upper door and the cabinet door above it (if
any).
The width of the cabinet doors depends on the kitchen
style and size of the gaps between the door panels of the
cabinetry. Generally, a 1/8 in. (3 mm) vertical gap
between the cabinet doors is recommended.
The top edge of the upper door

The position of the joint between the kitchen cabinet
doors must be level with the position of the joint

Adjust the door alignment before installing the appliance.
It is impossible to adjust the door with the appliance
installed.

The freezer door height is 24-24/32 in. (629 mm).
u
To cover the lower part of the appliance: increase the
height of the panel to 27-3/32 in. (695 mm).
The thickness of the floor board is usually 3/4 in. (19 mm).
u
To cover the face side of the floor board
the height of the panel to 27-3/8 in. + 3/4 in. = 28-1/8 in.
( 695 mm + 19 mm = 714 mm ).

Of course, the final door height depends on the gap position
of the cabinets that stand to the left and right of the
appliance cabinet.
If there is other furniture standing close to the appliance

cabinet this furniture typically has a gap between two
drawers or two doors. Depending on your kitchen, these
gaps are approximately 1/8 in. (3 mm) wide.
u
In this case, increase the height of the panel to
27-3/8 in. + 3/4 in. + 19/32 in. - 1/8 in. = 28-19/32 in.
( 695 mm + 19 mm + 15 mm - 3 mm = 726 mm ).
The height of the refrigerator door panel is:

Water supply
u
The total opening of the cabinet (i.e. 70-3/8 in.
(1788 mm)) plus the thickness of the top as well as the
floor board (usually 3/4 in. (19 mm)) minus the height of
the freezer door panel (xxx in. (xxx mm)) as calculated
above and subtract the width of the gap (approximately
1/8 in. (3 mm)): 70-3/8 in. + 3/4 in. + 3/4 in. - xxx in. 1/8 in. = 71-25/32 in. - xxx in. ( 1788 mm + 19 mm +
19 mm - xxx mm - 3 mm = 1823 mm – xxx mm )
5 Water supply*
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard!
u
Do not make the water connection while the appliance is
connected to an electrical outlet.
u
Disconnect the water supply before connecting the water
lines for the IceMaker.
u
The connection to the water supply may only be made by
a trained and licensed plumber.
WARNING
Poisoning Hazard!
u
The water quality must comply with the drinking water
regulations for the geographical area where the
appliance is located.
u
The IceMaker is designed exclusively to make ice cubes
in quantities needed by a household and must only be
operated with water appropriate for this purpose.
- Do not damage or bend the
water supply pipe during
installation.
u
Connect the straight portion of the supplied stainless
steel hose to the solenoid valve.
The solenoid valve is located on the back of the appliance
at the bottom. It has a Metric R¾ male connection.
u
Connect the bent portion of the stainless steel hose to
the shut-off valve.
u
Open the shut-off valve of the water supply
pipe and check the entire water system to
ensure there are no leaks.
Before initial operation:
u
Have a competent fitter bleed the water supply
pipe.
6 Installation
All installation components are supplied with the appliance.
- The water pressure must be
between 21.76 psi (1.5 bar) and
87.02 psi (6 bar). (0,15 MPa 0,6 MPa)
- Water must be supplied to the
appliance by means of a coldwater pipe that can withstand
the operating pressure and
conforms to hygiene
regulations.
Use the supplied steel hose
(59-1/16 '' (1.5 m), metric
thread) to connect to the water
supply. A 118-1/8 '' (3 m) hose
is available from Customer
Service. This hose must be
installed by a qualified fitter.
The connecting piece of the
hose contains a filter with a
gasket seal.
- A shut-off valve must be
provided between the hose line
and the domestic water supply
to turn off the water supply, if
necessary.
- All devices and fixtures used to
supply water must comply with
the regulations in force in the
respective country.

Make sure you have the following tools on hand:
q
Cordless Torx 15. 20. 25 screwdrivers
q
Hexagonal wrench 13
The floor and side walls of the unit must be at right angles
to one another. Level the unit using a spirit level and set
square. If necessary, level up by placing something
underneath.
The appliance can also be built into a normal kitchen
cabinet. In this case, detach the fittings on the unit door and
the recess. They are no longer needed, as the unit door is
fitted to the appliance door.

Installation
Note
u
Before assembling the unit door, make sure that the
permitted weight for the unit doors is not exceeded.
