Using the installation instructions

Please fold out the illustrated last page. These installation instructions refer to several models.

The diagrams may differ.

Installation location

A dry, well ventilated room is suitable as an installation location. The installation location should not be exposed to direct sunlight and not 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:

■ 3 cm to electric or gas cookers. ■ 30 cm to an oil or coal-fired cooker.

The floor of the installation location must not give way; if required, reinforce floor. If the floor is uneven, compensate with supports.

Distance from wall

Appliances with fitted handles must be situated at least 525 mm from the wall on the hinge side so that the door can be opened by 160°.

Installing appliances next to each other

Fig. 3

When installing two appliances, ensure that the refrigerator is on the left and the freezer is on the right.

The right side panel of the refrigerator is heated slightly. This prevents condensation from forming between the appliances.

Attaching spacers

Fig. 4

1. On the right side of the refrigerator degrease the adhesive areas with petroleum ether or spirit.
2. Stick spacers in all four corners at a distance of 5 cm from the side edges to ensure a minimum gap between the appliances.

Note

You can purchase a connection set from your dealer.

Changing over the door hinges

(if required)

We recommend that you have the door hinges changed over by our customer service. You can find out the costs for changing over the door hinges from your appropriate customer service.

Warning

While changing over the door hinges, ensure that the appliance is not connected to the power supply. Pull out the mains plug beforehand. To prevent damaging the back of the appliance, place adequate padding underneath. Carefully place the appliance on its back.

Change over the door hinges in numerical sequence. Fig. 1

Note

If the appliance is placed on its back, ensure that the wall spacer is not fitted.

Changing the door handle

(if required)

Fitting the wall spacer

Fig. 5

If available:

Fit wall spacers to obtain the indicated energy rating of the appliance.

A reduced wall gap will not restrict the function of the appliance. The energy rating may then increase slightly.

Distance to the back wall

The distance of 75 mm must not be exceeded.

Aligning the appliance

Place the appliance in the designated location and align. The appliance must be level. If the floor is uneven, use the front height-adjustable feet. Adjust the height-adjustable feet with a wrench.

Note

The appliance must be upright. Please align it with a spirit level.
