Miele K9552, K9752 Installation, Location, Ventilation, Important tropical / humid environments

Installation

This appliance must be built in, otherwise it could tip up.

Location

This appliance should be installed in a dry, well-ventilated room. It should not be installed where it is exposed to direct sunlight or directly adjacent to a heat-producing appliance such as an oven or a radiator. The room temperature should not go above or below the climate range for which the appliance is designed. The higher the ambient temperature of the room, the more energy the appliance requires to operate.

Important: tropical / humid environments

During periods of high humidity, some condensation may appear on outside surfaces of cooling appliances. This condensation will disappear when humidity levels drop. For prevention, it is advisable to install the appliance with sufficient ventilation in a dry and/or an air-conditioned room. Please ensure that doors are closing and sealing properly. Please ensure that the appliance is installed in accordance with these installation instructions and that the handle is fitted correctly. Should you require further assistance please contact your Miele customer service centre.

Climate range

This appliance is designed for use within certain climate ranges (ambient temperatures), and should not be used outside this range. The climate range of the appliance is stated on the data plate inside the appliance.

Climate range	Ambient room
	temperature
SN	+10°C to +32°C
N	+16°C to +32°C
ST	+16°C to +38°C
T	+16°C to +43°C

Operating in a room which is too cold will cause the cooling system to switch off for too long, causing the internal temperature in the appliance to rise with the risk of food deteriorating and going off.

Ventilation

Air at the back of the appliance gets warm. The appliance housing unit must be constructed to allow sufficient space for ventilation.

A ventilation gap of at least 38 mm depth must be allowed for behind the appliance for air to circulate.

The air inlet to the appliance is via the plinth in the housing unit.

The cross-section of the air inlet and outlet must be at least 200 cm2 to ensure that air can circulate without hindrance. Otherwise the appliance has to work harder, resulting in an increase in electricity consumption.

The air vents must not be covered or blocked in any way. They should be dusted on a regular basis.
