indicates a hazardous situation, which if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
indicates a hazardous situation, which if not avoided, will result in minor or moderate injury.
indicates a hazardous situation, which if not avoided, could result in damage to property.
indicates useful advice and tips.

2 Setup conditions

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 of refrigerant, the installation space must be at least 1 m3 . Specifications on the refrig- erant 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 no set up the appliance in an area with direct sunlight, next to a heating unit or similar.
– You can set up the appliance directly next to an oven. – If you set up the appliance directly next to an oven, its
energy consumption may increase slightly. This depends on the service life and how often the oven is used. – 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.

WARNING Risk of fire due to moisture! If live parts or the power cord get wet, this can cause a short circuit. u 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 envi- ronmentally 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. u Do not damage the pipelines of the coolant circuit and
the compressor.

– The optimal installation site is a dry and well ventilated room.
– If the appliance is installed in a very damp environment condensate water may form on the outside of the appli- ance.

Installation dimensions

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 57 mm . This is how far the handle protrudes when the door is open.
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.

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

x The use of wall spacers increases the dimensions by 15 mm (see 9 Mounting wall spacers) .

Note A set for restricting the door opening angle to 90° can be acquired from Customer Services for appliances with soft closing.

Ensure that the following conditions are met:
– Recess dimensions are adhered to . – Ventilation requirements are complied with (see 4 Venti-
lation requirements) .

2.3 Setting up multiple appliances

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

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

Depending on model and options

Water connection

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 cavi- ties or recesses in their final installation position. – Basically, the larger the ventilation gap, the more energy the appliance saves during operation.
5 Water connection
If your appliance has a fixed water connection, a hose is supplied with it.
Note You can purchase a hose of a different length as an acces- sory.

u Connect a pressure reducer. u Make the water connection. (see 16 Connecting the appli-
ance to the water supply)
6 Transporting the appliance
Observe the following when transporting the appliance: u Transport the appliance upright. u Use two people when transporting the appliance. During the first use: u Transport the appliance packaged. During appliance transport or at first use (e.g. when moving or cleaning): u Empty the appliance. u Secure the door against undesired opening.

7 Unpacking the appliance
If the appliance is damaged check with the supplier immedi- ately before connecting it. u Check the appliance and packaging for damage during
transport. If you suspect any damage, please contact your supplier immediately. u 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. u Remove all protective films from the appliance. Do not use sharp or pointed objects for this. u Remove the mains cable from the back of the appliance. Also remove the cable holder, otherwise there will be vibration noise!

9 Mounting wall spacers
With the wall spacer, your appliance will achieve the speci- fied 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. u Appliance with supplied wall
spacers: Fit wall spacers on the rear of the appliance at the bottom left and right.

CAUTION Risk of injury or damage from the appliance tipping or the door falling open! If the additional adjustable foot on the base support is not correctly positioned on the floor, there is a risk of the door falling open or the appliance tipping. This can lead to injury or property damage. u Unscrew the additional adjustable foot on the support
until it reaches the floor. u Then turn it another 90°.
u Align the appliance so that it stands firmly and by applying the accompanying spanner to the adjustable height feet (A) and using a spirit level.
u Then prop up the door: Lower the adjustable foot on the bearing bracket (B) until it contacts the floor, then turn it an additional 90°.
u Then prop up the door: Screw out the adjustable foot on the bearing bracket (B) using the open-ended wrench SW10 until it comes into contact with the floor, then turn an additional 90°.
