3.1 Transport to installation site and unpacking

The appliance is very heavy. Take maximum care during handling to avoid injury.

The appliance should always be transported in an erect position. Avoid at all costs leaning it on its front side.

Since this is a large and heavy appliance, before transporting the appliance, check the access to the location where it will be installed (door size, manoeuvring space in stairwells, etc.).

The appliance is attached to the base of the packaging (pallet) through four bolts which can be removed using a 17 mm (3/4") wrench.

It is recommended to use a manual transporting device to move the appliance to the installation site, and only at this point to remove the base of the packaging.

The appliance should always be transported in an erect position.

If this is not possible, transport the appliance laying on its rear side.

Once at the installation site, the appliance, which is equipped with four wheels, can be taken off the pallet and positioned in the installation area.

Operate as follows:

Take off the four boltshsecuring the appliance to the pallet by means of a 17 mm (3/4") open spanner.

Remove the fixing brackets [3] and [4].

To remove the front fixing bracket [3], unscrew for one or two turns the rear wheel adjusting bolt [2] by means of a 13 mm (1/2") box spanner, avoiding too much strenght while thickening the nut, which could damage the leveling feet adjusting system.

6.3 Ventilation and Plinth

INTEGRATED AND CLASSIC SERIES

In the event that the design of the environment provides for the installation of a front plinth to unify the overall view, it is necessary to use a perforated plinth to ensure proper ventilation of the equipment.

The drawings below indicate, for each width available in the Integrated series, the size of the area and the percentage of surface to be drilled; the type of drilling (vertical or horizontal grid, for example) remains at the discretion of the designer.

Diagram of a wall-mounted panel with a wooden panel and blue directional arrows indicating movement or force (no text or symbols)

Ventilation is ensured by a forced air system through a grid positioned in the lower part of the equipment. If a front plinth is provided, it must provide an opening to ensure proper ventilation of the equipment as per drawing.

The type of drilling of the front plinth (eg vertical or horizontal slots) is at the discretion, however, it must guarantee an open surface equal to 50% of the total.

In this case, to further improve ventilation, it is suggested to remove the original grille.

The ventilation grille is magnetically fixed to the equipment and can be easily removed, even by the user, to check and clean the condenser from any accumulation of dust.

The ventilation grille must not be blocked or covered in any way. It also needs to be dusted / cleaned regularly.
