Installation
Installation Location
The appliance should be set up in a well ventilated, dry room.
Energy use and efficient performance of the appliance is affected by the ambient temperature.
The appliance should therefore
–not be exposed to direct sunlight;
–not be installed next to radiators, cookers or other sources of heat;
–only be installed at a location whose ambient temperature corresponds to the climate classification, for which the appliance is designed.
The climate classification can be found on the serial plate, which is located at the left on the inside of the appliance.
The following table shows which ambient temperature is correct for each climate classification:

If the refrigeration appliance is installed next to another refrigerator or freezer a clearance of 5 cm at the sides is required, in order to pre- vent the formation of condensation on the outside of the appliance.
Your refrigerator needs air
For correct operation this appliance must be located in a dry atmos- phere, away from heat sources, e.g. cookers, radiators, boilers and direct sunlight.
You should also ensure that air can circulate freely around the back and the top of the cabinet. There should be 100mm (4”) between the top of the cabinet and any overhanging kitchen furniture. Alternatively allow 50mm (2”) between the top of the cabinet and any overhanging kitchen furniture and a gap of 25mm (1”) on either side of the appliance.
