Miele KFN 8996 SDE ED-1 Installation information, Location, Proper ventilation, Climate range

Installation information

Do not place any items that produce heat on top of the appliance (such as a toaster or microwave). This will increase the amount of energy the appliance consumes.

This fridge/freezer should not be placed in a side-by-side formation 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 stove/oven or a radiator), or in direct sunlight. The higher the adjacent temperature, the more energy the appliance requires to keep cool. Choose a dry, well-ventilated room for installation.

Climate range

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

Climate range	Room temperature
SN	+10 °C to +32 °C
	(50	F to 90 F)
N	+16 °C to +32 °C
	(61	F to 90 F)
ST	+18 °C to +38 °C
	(64 F to 100 F)
T	+18 °C to +43 °C
	(64	F to 109)

If the room is too cold, it will cause the cooling system in the appliance to switch off for too long. This can cause the internal temperature to rise.

Proper ventilation

The air behind the appliance gets warm. In order to ensure adequate ventilation, you must ensure that the vents are not covered or blocked in any way. Also, the vents must be dusted/cleaned on a regular basis.

Installation

^First remove any cable clips from the rear of the appliance.

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

^Gently slide the appliance into the desired location. The rear of the appliance can be directly against the wall.
