installation
f On the appliance, pull out the plug connecting the program-
ming unit with the appliance.

10.2 Mounting the appliance

Material losses
!
If the unit is not mounted horizontally, condensate cannot
drain properly. Condensate escaping in an uncontrolled
manner can damage the floor or items in the vicinity of
the unit.

f Check whether the wall can bear the weight of the
appliance.
f Use appropriate rawl plugs and screws suitable for
the wall structure to attach the rail.
f Remove the wall mounting bracket from the appliance.
f Secure the wall mounting bracket to the wall with four
screws. The text "TOP" must be at the top. The wall mounting
bracket must be horizontal.
f If necessary, screw the star grips included in the standard
delivery into the back of the appliance at the bottom to act as
spacers.
f Fit the appliance onto the hooks of the wall mounting
bracket.
f If the appliance is not hanging horizontally, screw the previ-
ously fitted star grips acting as spacers in or out by a small
amount.

10.3 Connecting the condensate drain hose

Material losses
!
To ensure that condensate drains correctly, always lay
the condensate drain hose without any kinks. Lay the
condensate drain hose with a fall of at least 10 %. Ensure
the appliance is level after installation.
The drain pipe may only contain one siphon. The con-
densate must be able to drain freely downstream of the
siphon. The condensate must drain away via the domestic
sewer system. The pipes must not rise in the domestic
sewer system downstream of the siphon. The condensate
drain must be free from the risk of frost.

A float switch prevents condensate from reaching live
parts in the unit.
If the condensate drain hose is installed incorrectly, the
float switch cannot prevent the uncontrolled leakage of
condensate.
Note
To ensure the unit is airtight, there may be no inter-
ruption in the condensate drain between the unit and
the trap. Use the supplied condensate drain hose and
mounting bend.
The standard delivery includes a condensate drain hose and a
hose clip. Connect the thinner end of the condensate drain hose
to the appliance.
f Use the mounting bend included in the standard delivery to
install the condensate drain hose in such a way as to create a
siphon with a water trap height of at least 80 mm.
f Before connecting the condensate drain hose to the appli-
ance, pour water into the siphon.

1 Hose clip
f Slide the hose clip onto the condensate drain hose far
enough to be able to push the hose onto the condensate
drain connector without squeezing the hose clip.
f Push the condensate drain hose onto the condensate drain
connector.
f Push the hose clip towards the appliance so that it secures
the hose on the condensate drain connector.
