Installing the appliance
When two appliances are placed beside each other, the spacers enclosed in the plastic wrapping should be glued between the appliances. As shown in the illustration.
To obtain the best performance from the appliance, ensure :
·the appliance is placed in a dry, cool place and is not exposed to direct sunlight.
·the appliance is not placed close to a source of heat, e.g. a cooker or dishwasher.
·the appliance is level. The appliance should not lean
against any wall. If necessary adjust the feet using the adjustment spanner supplied.
·there is good air circulation around the appliance and that the air channels below and behind
the appliance are not blocked. The ventilation
space above the appliance must be at least 4 cm. The ventilation space can either be
a)directly above the appliance, or
b)behind and above the top cupboard. In this case, the space behind the cupboard must be at least 50 mm deep.
The appliance must be placed at a location whose ambient temperature corresponds to the climate classification*, for which the appliance is designed.
*See on the rating plate on the inside of the appliance.
The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for each climate classification.
Climate | for an ambient temperature of | |
classification | ||
| ||
SN | +10°C to +32°C | |
|
| |
N | +16°C to +32°C | |
ST | +18°C to +38°C | |
T | +18°C to +43°C |
·Check that the drain hose at the rear of the cabinet discharges into the drip tray.
If the appliance is placed in a corner and the side with the hinges facing the wall, the distance between the wall and the appliance must be at least 230 mm to allow the door to open enough so that the shelves can be removed.
The power plug must be accessible after installation of the appliance.
