Installation location
WARNING
Risk of explosion!
Do not install the appliance near explosive or
flammable substances.
A dry, well-ventilated room is suitable as an installation
location. The installation location should not be
exposed to direct sunlight or placed 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 from the heat source:
1/4 I
1
(3 cm) to electric or gas stoves.
n
3/16 I
n
11
(30 cm) to oil or solid fuel stoves.
To ensure that the Ice Maker functions correctly, the
appliance must be upright and level.
If installing the refrigerator next to another
refrigerator/freezer, there must be a minimum
clearance of 1" (25 mm) between the appliances to
prevent condensation.
If a panel or cupboard is installed above the
appliance, ensure to leave a 13/32
that the appliance can be pulled out of the recess if
required.
The air heated at the back of the appliance must be
allowed to escape unhindered.
To ensure that the doors can open all the way,
maintain the lateral minimum clearances when
installing the appliance in a corner or recess (see
section on "Appliance and installation dimensions").
If the depth of the adjacent kitchen equipment
1/8 I
exceeds 29
(75 cm), maintain the minimum lateral
clearances in order to utilize the full door opening
angle (see section "Door opening angle").
