FREEdOM® COLLECTION PLANNING INFORMATION INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS INSTALLATION PLACE WARNING Do not install the appliance: - outdoors - in an environment with dripping water - in rooms which are at risk of frost 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 100° 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 1/4" (3 cm) from an electric cooker, - 11 13/16" (30 cm) from an oil or solid-fuel cooker. INSTALLATION CAVITY ANd NICHE dIMENSIONS It is important to observe the specified dimensions of the installation cavity for a trouble-free installation of the appliance and for the subsequent general view of the furniture front. - In particular ensure that the cavity is square. Squareness can be checked by suitable means, e.g. spirit level, diagonal measurements, etc. - The side walls of the cavity must be flush. The minimum thickness of the side walls and the top wall must be 5/8" (16 mm). The minimum thickness of toe kick panel must be 1/2" (13 mm). FURNITURE/FIXTURES The new appliance is screwed securely to adjacent and overhead furniture/fixtures. For this reason it is essential that all attachable furniture/ fixtures are connected securely to the base or the wall by suitable means. FINGER GUARd The finger guard is a safety device which is attached to the hinge side of the appliance door. When the door is open, it stops children and pets from inserting limbs unnoticed into the crack between the door and the appliance and from being hurt when the door is closed. Important: Under no circumstances may the appliance be installed and operated without the finger guard. BASE WARNING A fully-loaded appliance is very heavy-refer to the following table for load bearing capacity: 24-Inch Fresh Food Column approx. 890 lbs. / 40 kg 30-Inch Fresh Food Column approx. 1110 lbs. / 500 kg 36-Inch Bottom Freezer approx. 1200 lbs. / 540 kg 18-Inch Freezer Column approx. 560 lbs. / 250 kg* 24-Inch Freezer Column 780 lbs. / 350 kg* 30-Inch Freezer Column 950 lbs. / 425 kg* (*Without water dispenser) To ensure that the appliance is installed securely and functions properly, the base must be flat and level. The base must be made of hard, rigid material. The installation area must be the same height as the rest of the room. On account of the heavy weight of a fully-loaded appliance, a load-bearing base is required. If in doubt, contact an architect or a building expert.
