Installing the appliance
Installation location
ã
CAUTION
The appliance is very heavy. 
The appliance should be installed in a dry, well ventilated 
space.
The location should not be exposed to the direct sunlight 
and should not lie next to a source of heat such as a 
cooker or a radiator etc. If installation next to a source of 
heat cannot be avoided, either a suitable insulating plate 
should be used or you should keep to the following 
minimum distances:
1
/
4
" (3 cm) to electric or gas cookers.
11
13
/
16
" (30 cm) to an oil-fired or solid-fuel cooker.
The floor of the installation location must not give way; if 
required, reinforce floor. To ensure that the ice maker 
functions correctly, the appliance must be upright.
Climatic classes
The climate class can be found on the rating plate. 
The climate class indicates within which ambient 
temperatures the appliance can be operated.
Stable installation
The appliance is very heavy and has a tendency to tilt 
forwards when the appliance door is opened. 
The appliance must not be switched on until there 
is no possibility of the appliance tilting over. 
The safest method of installing the appliance in a stable 
position is to use the supplied anti-tip brackets.
If the installation niche is adequately stable and the 
appliance can be attached securely to the upper and 
side walls of the niche, it may be possible to dispense 
with the anti-tip brackets. A prerequisite for this is always 
a firm connection between the niche and back wall! 
In the case of doubt, the help of architect or specialist 
builder should be enlisted.
Installation niche
It is important to keep to the stated dimensions of the 
installation niche with a view to trouble-free fitting, and 
the subsequent appearance of the kitchen furniture 
frontage.
Special care should be taken that the niche has right 
angles. The side walls should not exhibit areas that stick 
out, projections or unevenness.
You should determine the right angles of the installation 
niche with appropriate means, e.g. by measuring 
diagonally and by using a spirit level.
The side walls and the upper end of the installation niche 
must be at least 
5
/
8
" (16 mm) thick.
Neighbouring kitchen furniture
The new appliance is screwed down tightly using parts 
of the cabinet and the upper cabinet.
Care should therefore be taken, that all upper cabinets 
to which something has been fastened are securely 
connected to the subsurface or wall by appropriate 
means.
The minimum thickness of the base should be 
a minimum of 
3
/
4
" (19 mm).
Floor
The subsurface must be level and even in order to 
ensure that the appliance is securely installed and works 
correctly.
The subsurface must be made from a hard, non-flexible 
material.
The floor of the installation space must have the same 
height as the rest of the space.
On account of the weight of a fully-laden appliance, it is 
necessary to have a bearing subsurface. In the case of 
doubt, the help of architect or specialist builder should 
be enlisted.
