sources away from the appliance,

■ thoroughly ventilate the room for several

minutes,

■ switch off the appliance and pull out the

mains plug,

■ inform customer service.

The more refrigerant an appliance contains, the larger the room must be in which the appliance is situated. Leaking refrigerant can form a flammable gas-air mixture in rooms which are too small. The room must be at least 1 m³ per 8 g of refrigerant. The amount of refrigerant in your appliance is indicated on the rating plate inside the appliance.

Installing the appliance

Observe ambient temperature and ventilation

Transporting

The appliances are heavy and must be secured during transportation and installation.

Because of the weight / dimensions of the appliance and to minimise the risk of injuries and damage to the appliance at least two persons are necessary to set-up the appliance securely.

Installation location

Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room. The installation location should neither be exposed to direct sunlight nor near a heat source, e.g. a cooker, radiator, etc. If installation next to a heat source is unavoidable, use a suitable insulating plate or observe the following minimum distances to a heat source:

■ 3 cm to electric or gas cookers.

■ 30 cm to an oil or coal-fired cooker.

If installing the appliance next to another refrigerator or freezer, ensure a minimum lateral distance of 25 mm to prevent the formation of condensation.

If a panel or cupboard is installed above the appliance, ensure that a gap of 30 mm is left so that the appliance can be pulled out of the recess if required.

The air heated on the rear side of the appliance must be allowed to escape unhindered.

Subsurface

Ambient temperature

The climate class can be found on the rating plate. The climate class indicates within which ambient temperatures the appliance can be operated. The rating plate is located in the refrigerator compartment at the bottom right side.

Climate class Permitted ambient temperature SN +10 °C to 32 °C N +16 °C to 32 °C ST +16 °C to 38 °C T +16 °C to 43 °C

Note

The appliance is fully functional within the room temperature limits of the indicated climatic class. If an appliance of climatic class SN is operated at colder room temperatures, the appliance will not be damaged up to a temperature of +5 °C.

Ventilation

Never cover the ventilation openings on the rear of the appliance. Conduction of the heated air must not be obstructed. Otherwise, the refrigeration unit must work harder. This increases power consumption.

Place the enclosed spacers in the designated holders on the back of the appliance. This ensures that there is a minimum distance between the appliance and the wall.

m Caution

The appliance is very heavy.

Model with dispenser: 143 kg The floor of the installation location must not give way;

if required, reinforce floor. To ensure that the doors can open all the way, observe

lateral minimum distances when installing the appliance in a corner or recess (see chapter “Installation dimensions”).

If the depth of the adjacent kitchen equipment is more than 60 cm, observe lateral minimum distances in order to utilise the full door opening angle (see chapter “Door opening angle“).

Connect the appliance to a drinking water line only:

■ Minimum pressure: 0.2 Mpa (2 bar)

■ Maximum pressure: 0.8 Mpa (8 bar)

■ Pressure over 0.8 MPa (8 bar): install a pressure

limiter between drinking water connection and hose set

Note

The maximum outside diameter of the water mains (without connecting pieces) is 10 mm.

Electrical connection

Do not use extension cables or distributors. This appliance must be connected to a permanently installed socket.

The socket must be near the appliance and also freely accessible following installation of the appliance.

The appliance complies with the protection class I. Connect the appliance to 220-240 V/50 Hz alternating current via a correctly installed socket with protective conductor. The socket must be fused with a 10 A to 16 A fuse or higher.
