Setup conditions

WARNING
Risk of fire due to moisture!
If live parts or the power cord get wet, this can cause a short circuit.
▶ The appliance is designed for use in enclosed spaces. Do not operate the appliance in open space or in damp areas or where there is spray.

Normal use
– Only set up and use the appliance in enclosed spaces.

2.1  Space

WARNING
Leaking refrigerant and oil!
Fire. The refrigerant contained within the appliance is environmentally friendly, but flammable. The oil contained within the appliance is flammable. Escaping refrigerant and oil can ignite if they are of high enough concentration and are exposed to an external heat source.
▶ Do not damage the pipelines of the coolant circuit and the compressor.

• If the appliance is installed in a very damp environment condensate water may form on the outside of the appliance.
  Always ensure sufficient airflow and ventilation in the setup location.

• The more refrigerant there is in the appliance, the larger the space that it is installed in must be. If the space is too small, any leak may create a flammable mixture of gas and air. For every 8 g (0.28 oz) of refrigerant, the installation space must be at least 1 m³ (35.5 ft³) . Specifications on the refrigerant in the appliance can be found on the serial tag plate inside the appliance.

2.1.1  Installation surface

• The floor of the installation site must be horizontal and level.
• The height of the appliance base must be the same as the surrounding floor.

2.1.2  Installation position

• Do not install appliance in direct sunlight or next to an oven, radiator or similar.
• Always stand the appliance backed directly to the wall using the enclosed wall spacers (see below).

2.2  Fitting the appliance into the kitchen unit
You can install kitchen cabinets around the appliance.

(1) Top cupboard
(2) Appliance
(3) Kitchen cabinet
(4) Wall| (A) Appliance depth
(C) Ventilation crosssection
(D) Distance to the rear of the appliance
(E) Distance to the side of the appliance
---|---

You can place the appliance directly beside the kitchen cabinet Fig. 1 (3).
There must be a ventilation shaft at the depth Fig. 1 (D) of the back of the top cupboard over the entire width of the top cupboard.
The cross section of the ventilation gap Fig. 1 (C) must be maintained below the ceiling.
If the appliance is set up with the hinges next to a wall Fig. 1 (4), the distance between the appliance and the wall must be at least 13 mm (1/2 in) .
In order to be able to fully open the door, the appliance must protrude by the depth of the door Fig. 1 (B) from the front of the kitchen cabinet. Regardless of the depth of the kitchen cabinets Fig. 1 (3) and use of wall spaces, the appliance can protrude further.

Appliances without handle / with recessed grip:

x The use of wall spacers increases the dimensions by 15 mm (5/8 in) (see 8 Mounting wall spacers) .
Ensure that the following conditions are met:

• Recess dimensions are adhered to.
• Ventilation requirements are complied with (see 4 Ventilation requirements).

2.3  Setting up multiple appliances

NOTICE
Risk of damage caused by water condensate!
▶ Do not install this device directly beside another fridge/freezer compartment.

These appliances are designed for different types of installation. Only combine appliances if the appliances are designed for this. The following table shows the installation options by model:

Side-by-side with a space of 70 mm (2 3/4 in) between the appliances Otherwise condensation will build up between the units.| All models without side wall heating

Assemble appliances according to separate installation instructions.

2.4  Electrical connection

WARNING
Danger of fire due to incorrect positioning!
If the power supply cable or plug touches the back of the appliance, the vibration can damage the power supply cable or the plug resulting in a short circuit.

▶ Make sure the power supply cable is not trapped under the appliance when you position the appliance.
▶ Install the appliance so that it does not touch any plugs or power cables.
▶ Do not connect any appliances to sockets in the area of the back of the appliance.
▶ Do not place and operate power strips/power distributors and other electronic devices (such as halogen transformers) at the back of the appliances.

Ventilation requirements

NOTICE
Risk of damage due to overheating in the case of insufficient ventilation!
In the case of insufficient ventilation, the compressor can be damaged.
▶ Make sure there is sufficient ventilation.
▶ Observe the ventilation requirements.

If the appliance is integrated in a fitted kitchen, the following ventilation requirements must be met:

• The spacing fins on the back of the appliance are used to ensure sufficient ventilation. These must not lie in cavities or recesses in their final installation position.
• Basically, the larger the ventilation gap, the more energy the appliance saves during operation.

Water connection

If your appliance has a fixed water connection, an elbow connector with screen filter is supplied with it.

supply)

5.1  Water pressure

The water connection line and solenoid valve of the appliance are suitable for a water pressure of up to 1 MPa (10 bar (145.04 psi)).
To ensure that the appliance functions correctly (flow rate, ice cube size, noise level), maintain the following water pressure:

Water pressure:

bar| psi| MPa
1.5 to 6.2| 21.76 to 87.02| 0.15 to 0.62

If the pressure is higher than 6.2 bar (89.92 psi):
▶ Connect a pressure reducer.
▶ Make the water connection. (see 14 Connecting the appliance to the water supply)

Transporting the appliance

Observe the following when transporting the appli ance:
▶ Transport the appliance upright.
▶ Use two people when transporting the appliance.
During the first use:
▶ Transport the appliance packaged.
During appliance transport or at first use (e.g. when moving or cleaning):
▶ Empty the appliance.
▶ Secure the door against undesired opening.

Unpacking the appliance

If the appliance is damaged check with the supplier immediately before connecting it.
▶ Check the appliance and packaging for damage during transport. If you suspect any damage, please contact your supplier immediately.
▶ Remove all materials that could prevent it from being installed properly or prevent proper ventilation from the back or the side panels of the appliance.
▶ Remove all protective films from the appliance. Do not use sharp or pointed objects for this.

Mounting wall spacers

With the wall spacer, your appliance will achieve the specified energy consumption and no condensation will form in high ambient humidity. The appliance will work properly without using the wall spacer, but with a slightly higher energy consumption.
If you use the wall spacer, the appliance depth increases by approx. 15 mm (5/8 in).

▶ Appliance with supplied wall spacers: Fit wall spacers on the rear of the appliance at the bottom left and right.

Setting up the device
