Before you begin

Please read all instructions in this manual, as well as the manual which accompanied your machine, before installation and use.

This appliance is top-heavy and must be secured to prevent the possibility of tipping forward. Keep the doors closed until the appliance is completely installed and secured per the installation instructions.

To reduce the risk of injury or damage to the product, two people should be used for installation.

Side-by-side

... without partition

If the appliances are installed directly next to each other (without a partition), they need to be attached together. A heating mat must also be installed. This will help avoid condensation and prevent damages.

Installing the heating mat will increase energy consumption.

... with partition

The minimum thickness of the partition is 58 (16 mm).

If there is a partition with a thickness from 5 / 8'' (16 mm) to 6^5 /_16'' (160 mm) between the adjacent appliances, then each appliance should be individually installed within its own niche using the mounting accessories included.

In this case, you will only need the heating mat from the "Merging Kit" to avoid condensation and prevent damages.

Installing the heating mat will increase energy consumption.

When finding the dimensions for the partition in model 4, note the thickness of the custom door panels and the door handles. This will prevent damage to the doors if they are opened at the same time.
