Ventilation


Risk of fire and damage due to
insufficient ventilation.
If the refrigeration appliance is not
ventilated sufficiently, the
compressor will run more frequently
and for longer periods. This will
result in increased energy
consumption and a higher operating
temperature for the compressor. This
may, in turn, cause damage to the
compressor.
Please ensure that there is adequate
ventilation around the refrigeration
appliance.
It is essential to observe the required
ventilation gaps.
The ventilation gaps must not be
covered or blocked in any way.
They must also be regularly dusted.
Ventilation takes place through a
ventilation grille in the refrigeration
appliance plinth.

Furniture door panel

– Gap
Depending on the style of kitchen
furniture, the thickness and edge radius
of the furniture door and the gap that
runs around the door, vertically and
horizontally, are specified.
It is essential to pay attention to the
following:
If the gap between the refrigeration
appliance furniture door panel and the
adjoining housing unit door or wall on
the hinged side is too small, the
appliance door could collide with the
adjoining housing unit door or wall
when opened.
It may be necessary to adjust the
size of this gap to suit the thickness
and edge radius of the appliance
furniture door.
Tip: This must be taken into
consideration when planning your
kitchen and when replacing an old
refrigeration appliance with a new one
to ensure the installation conditions
required are met.
