3.2 Location requirements

WARNING
NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the refrigerator near an oven, radiator, or other heat
source. If this is unavoidable, a suitable insulating panel must be used to allow the appliance to work
properly.
• Always place the absorption minibar in a dry place with satisfactory ventilation. Never expose it to
direct sunlight or install it outdoors. Depending on its climate class, the appliance can be used in
different temperature conditions.
• The climate class is specified on the nameplate which is positioned in the top left-hand corner
of the body of the minibar.
• Choose a place that is near a grounded electrical outlet. Do not use an extension cord or an
adapter plug.
• To ensure proper ventilation for your absorption minibar, allow for a 1/2" (12.70 mm) space on each
side. Allow 3" (7.5 cm) of space between overhead cabinets and minibar top. Allow at least
1" (25.40 mm) between back of cabinet and the wall. If your absorption minibar has an ice maker,
make sure you leave some extra space at the back for the water line connections.
• If you are installing your absorption minibar next to a fixed wall, leave 12 ½" (31.8 cm) minimum on
the hinge side (depending on your model) to allow for the door to swing open.
• Level the absorption minibar. See "3.3 Positioning and levelling the appliance".
