following minimum distances to a heat
source:
3 cm to an electric cooker.
30 cm to an oil or solid fuel cooker.
Appliances with fitted handles must be
situated at least 55 mm from the wall on
the hinge side so that the door can be
opened by 90°.

heats up. The warm air must be able to
escape. Otherwise, the refrigerator must
work harder. This will increase the power
consumption.
Therefore: Never cover or block ventilation
openings!
