INSTALLATION

If this appliance – equipped with magnetic door seals –
replaces an older appliance featuring a spring lock
(mechanical latch) on the door or lid, please ensure that
this lock is made completely unusable before
«throwing out» the old appliance. This will pre vent it
from becoming a death-trap for a child.

Location

GB

Place the appliance as far away as possible from
sources of heat, e.g. radiators, heaters, direct sunlight,
etc. The best results are achieved with a room
temperature of between +18°C and +38°C.
Make sure that there is nothing hindering air
circulation at the back, bottom or top of the appliance.
To achieve the best performance, the top of the
appliance – if set under a wall cabinet – should be at
least 5 mm away from the base of the cabinet (Figure
1-A). However, the appliance should ideally not be
installed underneath wall cabinets (as shown in Figure
1-B).
It can be positioned with its sides set tight against
adjacent furniture as long as air is able to circulate
freely behind and above it.
One or more adjustable feet mounted on the base of
the appliance make it possible to set it perfectly level.

Rear spacers

In the bag with the documentation, there are two
spacers which must be fitted as shown in the
figure.
