Verify the following:

•Floors can support refrigerator’s weight plus approximately 1200 pounds (544 kg) of food weight.

•Finished kitchen floor height has to be level. Appliance must be shimmed to the floor level if the floor heights are not equal to make sure air vents are not obstructed.

Do not install this unit next to any other refrigerator or freezer except another Liebherr model. Liebherr models are designed to allow side-by-side instal- lation. They are equipped with a heating system to eliminate condensation when units are installed side by side. Installing this unit next to any other refrigerator or freezer can cause condensation or cause damage to the Liebherr unit.

Customer’s Responsibility

A 115 Volt, 60 Hz, 15 Amp (20 Amp for side-by- side installation) fused electrical supply is required. We recommend using a dedicated circuit for this appliance to prevent electrical overload. Follow the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordi- nances when installing the receptacle.

Blocking For Safety

The anti-tip brackets must be installed to prevent the unit from tipping after it is installed. Refer to Blocking For Safety.

Electrical Requirement

If codes require a separate grounding circuit to be used, have a qualified electrician install the circuit.

!WARNING

Do not ground to a gas pipe. Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure the appliance is properly grounded. Do not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit.

!WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

•Electrically ground refrigerator.

•Do not use an extension cord.

•Failure to follow these instructions could result in fire or electrical shock.

Unit Venting

DO NOT restrict the air flow. Air flow must be pro- vided for the unit to operate. The factory air vents provide 31 square inches (200 cm²) of air flow per unit. If you are replacing the factory air vents with an overlay, the air flow must be the same or greater than the factory air vents.
