Checking the building-in niche
 Check the installation dimensions
(see “Installation – Building-in dimen-
sions”).
 Check the position of the electrical
connection. The length of the elec-
trical connection cable is 3m.
The electrical socket must not be
concealed behind the appliance and
must be easily accessible in an
emergency.
 Check the surroundings for possible
collisions (see “Installation – Dimen-
sions with appliance door open”).
 Only install the refrigeration appliance
in stable, solid building-in niches, po-
sitioned on an even and level floor.
 Also check the building-in niche for
the following criteria:
- The side walls of the building-in niche
must be even.
- The surrounding walls of the building-
in niche must be at least 16mm
thick.
- The surrounding walls must be se-
curely fixed to the floor or wall.
- Shortened side walls must be at least
100mm deep.
Before installation
 Before installation, remove any ac-
cessories from the back of the appli-
ance.
 Risk of damage due to insuffi-
cient ventilation.
If the refrigeration appliance is not
sufficiently ventilated, this may cause
mould to form and, in the long term,
lead to damage to the outside of the
refrigeration appliance and in the in-
stallation niche.
Do not remove the spacers from the
outside of the appliance under any
circumstances.
Do not compress the spacers under
any circumstances.
The spacers guarantee the neces-
sary distance between the refrigera-
tion appliance and the installation
niche.
 Check the refrigeration appliance for
transport damage.
Do not install a damaged refrigera-
tion appliance.
 Check that all parts at the back of the
appliance are unhindered.
