Installation notes


Risk of damage and injury due to
the refrigeration appliance tipping
over.
This refrigeration appliance is very
heavy and can tip forwards when the
appliance door(s) is (are) open.
Keep the appliance door(s) shut until
the refrigeration appliance has been
built in and secured in its housing in
accordance with these operating and
installation instructions.
Due to its weight and size, the
refrigeration appliance must be
installed by two people.

Adjoining cabinets/units

The appliance is screwed to the
adjoining cabinets/units to the side and
above. For this reason, it is essential
that all cabinets/units are fixed to the
ground or wall.
Load-bearing capacity of the niche
floor
To ensure the safe installation of the
refrigeration appliance and to guarantee
its correct functioning, the floor of the
niche where the appliance is to be
installed must be smooth and even.
It must be made from strong, rigid
material.
Because the refrigeration appliance is
extremely heavy when fully loaded, it is
essential that the floor it stands on is
able to bear its weight. If necessary,
seek the advice of an architect or
construction expert.
When fully loaded, the weight of the
refrigeration appliance is approx.:
KF 2802 Vi, KF 2812 Vi
KF 2902 Vi, KF 2912 Vi

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.

Door hinging


Risk of damage and injury when
changing the door hinges.
Changing the door hinges single-
handedly can cause damage to the
appliance and injury.
The refrigeration appliance is
supplied with fixed hinges. Under no
circumstances should you attempt to
change the door hinges yourself.
If you need to change the door hinges
to the other side, please contact the
Miele Customer Service Department.
