If installation next to a source of heat is unavoidable, the following mini-
mum clearances must be maintained at the sides of the appliance:
– for electric cookers 3 cm;
– for oil and coal fired ranges 30 cm.
If these clearances cannot be maintained a heat insulating pad is required
between the cooker and the refrigeration appliance.
If the refrigeration appliance is installed next to another refrigerator or free-
zer a clearance of 5 cm at the sides is required, in order to prevent the for-
mation of condensation on the outside of the appliance.
"Installation directly under a hob is not allowed. The temperatures of the
hob, which in part are quite high, may damage the appliance.
If a hob is installed near the appliance, the corresponding installation and
safety instructions must be adhered to. Considering the numerous installa-
tion conditions which are possible, there is no way of providing detailed
information here.
It is necessary to avoid overheating of the refrigerator by maintaining ade-
quate distances from heat sources and by the use of a suitable thermal insu-
lation plate. Proper ventilation of the appliance must also be ensured."
Installation
Installation Location
The appliance should be set up in a well ventilated, dry room.
Energy use 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: each climate classification:
Climate classification
for an ambient temperature of
SN +10 bis +32 °C
N +16 bis +32 °C
ST +16 bis +38 °C
T +16 bis +43 °C
