Installation

The appliance should be set up in a well ventilated, dry room. The base-

ment is an ideal set-up location for freezers.

Energy use and efficient performance of the appliance is affected by

the ambient temperature.

The appliance should therefore

– not be exposed to direct sunlight;

– not be installed next to radiators, cookers or other sources of heat;

– only be installed at a location whose ambient temperature corre-

sponds to the climate classification, for which the appliance is desi-

gned.

The climate classification can be found on the rating plate, which is

located at the left on the inside of the appliance.

The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for

each climate classification:

Climate classification

If installation next to a source of heat is unavoidable, the following

minimum clearances must be maintained at the sides of the appliance:

– for electric cookers 3 cm;

– for oil and coal fired ranges 30 cm.

If these clearances cannot be maintained a heat insulating pad is requi-

red between the cooker and the refrigeration appliance.

If the refrigeration appliance is installed next to another refrigerator or

freezer a clearance of 5 cm at the sides is required, in order to prevent

the formation of condensation on the outside of the appliance.

1. The appliance must have a solid, level footing. Please compensate for

unevenness in the floor by turning the two adjustable feet at the front

in or out.
