Installation
– Air intake  occurs via the plinth at
the bottom of the appliance and the
air escapes at the top  at the rear
of the housing unit.
– A ventilation gap of at least 40 mm
depth must be allowed for behind the
appliance for air to circulate.
– The ventilation cross-sections in the
plinth, housing unit and above the
appliance must amount to a free air‐
flow of at least 200 cm² to ensure
that air can circulate without hin‐
drance.
If ventilation grilles are to be inserted
into the ventilation gaps, the ventila‐
tion gaps must be larger than
200 cm². The free airflow of 200 cm²
results from the total of the ventila‐
tion cross-sections in the grille.
– Important. The appliance uses less
energy, the larger the ventilation
gaps.
The ventilation gaps must not be
covered or blocked in any way. They
should be dusted on a regular basis.
