The refrigerant R 600a is environmentally friendly but flammable. Escaping refrigerant may ignite.
Do not damage the piping of the refrigeration circuit.
u
WARNING
Fire hazard and danger of damage!
Do not place appliances emitting heat e.g. microwaves,
u
toasters etc. on the appliance!
NOTICE
Risk of damage due to condensation!
When assembling an appliance name beginning with S... or
a side-by-side (SBS) appliance:
The appliance can be installed next to another refrigerator or
u
freezer.
If your appliance name does not begin with S...:
Do not install the appliance next to another refrigerator or
u
freezer.

Risk of tipping
WARNING
The appliance must be fixed in accordance with the instruc-
u
tions in order to prevent a hazard caused by the instability of
the appliance.
In the event that the appliance is damaged, contact the
q
supplier immediately before connecting to the mains.
The floor at the site must be flat and level.
q
Do not install the appliance in a location where it is exposed
q
to direct radiation of the sun, next to a cooker, heater and
similar.
Do not install the appliance alone: it is best to work together
q
with two or more people.
The more R 600a refrigerant there is in the appliance, the
q
larger the room in which the appliance is standing needs to
be. In rooms that are too small, a flammable mix of gas and
air may be created if there is a leak. According to the EN 378
standard, every 11 g of R 600a refrigerant requires at least
1 m3 space in the room for the appliance. The amount of
refrigerant in your appliance is on the type plate inside the
appliance.
If the appliance is installed in a very damp environment,
q
condensed water may form on the outside of the appliance.
Always make sure that there is good ventilation - both at air
inlet and outlet - at the site of installation.
After installation:
Remove protective films, adhesive tapes and transport lock
u
parts etc.
Putting into operation
2.3 Recess dimensions

u
Chapter "Cleaning the appliance").
2.2 Appliance dimensions
Fig. 2
The specified energy consumption applies to a unit depth of
560 mm. The appliance will work properly at a unit depth of 550
mm, but at a slightly higher energy consumption.
Check the wall thickness of the adjoining cabinets: it must
u
be min. 16 mm thick.
Align the kitchen unit using a spirit level and marking square
u
and if necessary compensate with shims.
Ensure that the floor and walls of the unit are at right angles
u
to one another.
2.4 Unit door
One door is required for the kitchen unit.
-
The door must be minimum 16 mm and maximum 19 mm
-
thick.
There must be a gap of minimum 3 mm width between the
-
door and the unit door located above it (if one exists).
The width of the unit door depends on the style of the
-
kitchen and the gap size between the door panels of the
cabinet. Generally, there should remain a vertical gap of
3 mm between the unit doors.
If there are more cupboards the upper edge of the cabinet
-
door should be at the same height as the doors on the next
cabinet.
The unit door must be planar and mounted stress-free.
