Installation information

Do not place any devices that produce heat (such as a toaster or microwave) on top of the appliance. This would increase the energy consumption of the appliance!

If the room is too cold, it will cause the cooling system in the appliance to switch off for too long. This may lead to higher temperatures in the appliance and the frozen food may even start thawing!

This fridge/freezer should not be placed side-by-side with a second model.

Because the appliance does not have heated side walls, a side-by-side arrangement can lead to the build-up of condensation water.

Contact your dealer for advice.

Location

The appliance should not be installed directly next to a heat source (such as a kitchen range or a heater) or in direct sunlight. The higher the ambient temperature, the longer the appliance will run and the higher the energy consumption.

Choose a dry, well-ventilated room for installation.

Climate range

The appliance is designed for use within a certain climate range (room temperature range) and should not be used outside this range. The climate range is stated on the data plate inside the appliance.

Climate range

SN

+10 °C to +32 °C

Proper ventilation

The air behind the appliance gets warm. In order to ensure adequate ventilation, you must make sure that the ventilation slits are not covered or blocked in any way.

Also, the ventilation slits must be dusted/cleaned on a regular basis.

^Check that all the parts on the rear of the appliance are free to move. Remove any obstructions.

^Gently slide the appliance into the desired location.
