en Installation Transport and installation The appliance is heavy and must be secured during transport and installation. WARNING Risk of injury! The appliance is very heavy. It can fall over and cause serious injuries during transport and installation. At least two people are required to install the appliance safely. Keep the refrigerator doors closed until the appliance is upright and level at the installation location. Installation location WARNING Risk of explosion! Do not install the appliance near explosive or flammable substances. NOTICE If a panel or cupboard is installed above the appliance, ensure to leave a 13/32I (10 mm) gap so that the appliance can be pulled out of the recess if required. The air heated at the back of the appliance must be allowed to escape unhindered. To ensure that the doors can open all the way, maintain the lateral minimum clearances when installing the appliance in a corner or recess (see section on "Appliance and installation dimensions"). If the depth of the adjacent kitchen equipment exceeds 29ā1/8I (75 cm), maintain the minimum lateral clearances in order to utilize the full door opening angle (see section "Door opening angle"). Subsurface NOTICE Ventilation Never cover the ventilation openings on the front base panel or rear cover plate. This forces the appliance to work harder, increasing its power consumption. The appliance is very heavy. The floor on which the appliance is to be installed must be rigid. Reinforce the floor, if necessary. Weight of appliance when empty: Basic model 324 lb (147 kg) Do not install the appliance outdoors. The installation location should be dry and should not be exposed to frost. The best installation location is a dry, well ventilated room. The installation location should neither be exposed to direct sunlight nor should it be near a heat source, such as a stove, radiator, etc. If installation next to a heat source is unavoidable, use a suitable insulating plate or observe the following minimum distances to the heat source: S 1ā1/4I (3 cm) to electric or gas stoves. S 11ā3/16I (30 cm) to oil or solid fuel stoves. If installing the refrigerator next to another refrigerator/freezer, there must be a minimum clearance of 1" (25 mm) between the appliances to prevent condensation. 6
