Frequently Asked Questions - GS36NBW30 SIEMENS

What are the exact dimensions of the Siemens GS36NBW30 freezer?

Exact dimensions are not given in the manual. It is a standard upright freezer. Estimate approximately 185 cm height, 60 cm width and 65 cm depth.

How to install the freezer side by side with a refrigerator?

Place the refrigerator to the left of the freezer. The right side wall of the refrigerator heats up slightly to prevent condensation. Use the provided spacers: degrease the bonding areas, stick the spacers at the four corners 5 cm from the edges to ensure a minimum gap.

Can I reverse the door opening direction myself?

It is possible, but Siemens recommends having this operation carried out by its after-sales service. If you do it yourself, disconnect the appliance beforehand, place a cushioning material under the appliance and follow the illustrated steps (Fig. 1).

How to change the door handle?

The manual indicates that it is possible to change the door handle by following the number order of Fig. 4. Remove the old handle and attach the new one according to the instructions.

What minimum distances to respect from heat sources?

3 cm from electric or gas cookers, 30 cm from oil or coal heating. Avoid direct exposure to sunlight.

How to adjust the appliance on an uneven floor?

Use the two screw feet at the front of the appliance. Use a fork spanner (SW 22) to adjust them until the appliance is level, checking with a spirit level.

What if I need to lay the appliance on its back?

When changing the door opening direction, you must lay the appliance on its back after disconnecting it. Place enough cushioning material to avoid damaging the back. Do not mount the side wall spacer in this case.

How to clean the bonding surfaces for the spacers?

Degrease the visible bonding areas on the right side of the refrigerator using stain remover or alcohol before sticking the spacers.

Where can I buy a junction kit?

You can obtain a junction kit through your dealer. Contact after-sales service for availability.

Does the appliance need to be installed in a specific room?

A dry and ventilated room is suitable. Avoid direct sunlight and proximity to heat sources. The floor must be level and not sag. If necessary, reinforce it or compensate for unevenness.

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

When installing the appliance, ensure that the door can be opened by 90°.

Installing appliances next to each other

Fig. 2

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. 3

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

Fitting the wall spacer

Fig. 5

If available:

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

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

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.
