Installation room

The appliance should be installed in a dry, ventilated
room.
The ambient temperature should not drop below 55 °F
(13 °C) or rise above 110 °F (43 °C), otherwise
malfunctions may occur.
The installation location should not be exposed to direct
sunlight and not placed near a heat source, such as an
oven, radiator, etc. If installation next to a heat source is
unavoidable, use a suitable insulating plate or observe
the following minimum distances from the heat source:
1
1 / " (30 mm) from an electric range,
4
12" (300 mm) from a gas range.

Stable installation

The appliance is very heavy and has a tendency to tilt
forwards when the appliance door is opened.
Do not open the door until there is no possibility of the
appliance tilting over.
The safest method of installing the appliance in a stable
position is to use the supplied anti-tip devices.
If the installation enclosure is adequately stable and the
appliance can be attached securely to the upper and
side walls of the installation enclosure, this may provide
additional stability. A prerequisite for this is always a firm
connection between the installation enclosure and back
wall!
If in doubt, contact an architect or a building expert.

To ensure that the appliance is installed securely and
functions properly, the floor must be flat and level.
The floor must be made of a hard, rigid material.
The floor in the installation area must be at the same
level as the rest of the room (no step up or down).
On account of the heavy weight of a fully loaded
appliance, a load-bearing floor is required. If in doubt,
contact an architect or a building expert.

be levelled properly.
If the appliance is not level, water may flow out of the ice
maker, ice cubes may be irregular or the doors may not
