Installation information

Ventilation


WARNING! Fire hazard!
Operation of the appliance is limited.
Keep the ventilation slits free from
obstruction.

If the ventilation slits are not kept
free and unobstructed the compres-
sor will switch on more often and will
run for longer.
This can cause higher energy con-
sumption and to an increased com-
pressor operating temperature,
which can result in damage to the
compressor.
Do not block the ventilation slits.

The air at the back wall of the appliance
warms up. Therefore the cabinet must
be constructed in such a way that en-
sures unhindered ventilation (see "Built-
in dimensions").
– The air influx  enters via the plinth
and the air outlet  is at the top at
the rear of the cabinet.
– To ensure ventilation an air channel of
a minimum 9/16" (40 mm) depth
must be provided at the back of the
appliance.
– The ventilation slits in the plinth, in
the cabinet and under the top of the
cabinet must provide a total passage
volume of at least 31 square inches
to allow the warm air to dissipate
unimpeded.
