Aligning The Appliance; Connecting The Appliance - Bosch KAD Series Operating And Installation Instructions

Aligning the appliance

To ensure that the appliance functions correctly, it
must be set level with a spirit level.
If the appliance is not level, water may flow out of the
ice maker, ice cubes may be irregular or the doors
may not close properly.
To align the appliance:
1. Place the appliance in the designated location.
2. Align front feet with a hexagon wrench.
3. Align rear feet with an Allen key.

Connecting the appliance

Have a technician install and connect the appliance
according to the enclosed installation instructions.
Do not remove the transportation protection devices
from the shelves and storage compartments until the
appliance has been installed.
Always connect the water before the power.
Apart from statutory national regulations, you should
stick to the connection terms relating to the local
electricity and water companies.
After installing the appliance, wait at least 1 hour until
the appliance starts up. During transportation the oil in
the compressor may have flowed into the refrigeration
system.
Before switching on the appliance for the first time,
clean the interior of the appliance (see chapter
"Cleaning").
Water connection
The water may be connected only by a competent
fitter according to the local regulations of the
appropriate water supply company.
Attention
!
Use only the enclosed hose set for connection to the
drinking water mains. Do not use existing or already
used hose sets.
Connect the appliance to a drinking water line only:
Minimum pressure: 0.2 Mpa (2 bar)
n
Maximum pressure: up to 0.8 Mpa (8 bar)
n
Note!
The maximum outside diameter of the water mains
(without connecting pieces) is 10 mm.
Electrical connection
Do not use extension cables or distributors. A
permanently installed socket is required for
connecting the appliance to the mains.
The socket must be near to the appliance and easily
accessible after the appliance has been installed.
The appliance conforms to protection class I. Connect
the appliance to a 220-240 V/50 Hz alternating
current supply using a socket with protective earthing
conductor which has been correctly installed. The
socket must be protected by a fuse with a rating of 10
A to 16 A or higher.
In the case of appliances operated outside of Europe,
check whether the voltage and type of current
specified on the rating plate conform to the values of
your electricity grid. The rating plate is at the bottom
right inside the appliance. If the power cord needs to
be replaced, this must only be carried out by a skilled
professional.
! Warning
The appliance must never be connected to an
electronic energy saving plug.
Sinusoidal-commutated and line-commutated inverters
can be used with our appliances. Line-commutated
inverters are used with photovoltaic systems that are
connected directly to the national grid.
Sinusoidal-communicated inverters must be used with
standalone applications (e.g. on ships or mountain
huts) that do not have a direct connection to the
national grid.
