8. WHAT TO DO IF…
During operation of the appliance some
smaller but annoying trouble can often
occur, which does not require calling a
technician out. In the following chart in-
formation is given about them to avoid
unnecessary charges on service.
The operation of the appliance
goes with certain sounds (com-
pressor and circulating sound).
This not means a trouble, but a
normal operation.
The appliance operates discon-
tinuously, so the stopping of
compressor does not mean be-
ing no current. That is why you
must not touch the electrical
parts of the appliance before
breaking the circuit.

9. INSTALLATION
WARNING!
Read the "Safety Information"
carefully for your safety and cor-
rect operation of the appliance
before installing the appliance.
9.1 Positioning
Install this appliance at a location where
the ambient temperature corresponds to
the climate class indicated on the rating
plate of the appliance:
Cli-
mate
classAmbient temperature
SN+10°C to + 32°C

AB
mm
mm
min100
20
The appliance should be installed well
away from sources of heat such as radia-
tors, boilers, direct sunlight etc. Ensure
that air can circulate freely around the
back of the cabinet. To ensure best per-
formance, if the appliance is positioned
below an overhanging wall unit, the min-
imum distance between the top of the
cabinet and the wall unit must be at least
100 mm . Ideally, however, the appliance
((1*/,6+13 
						

							should not be positioned below over-
hanging wall units. Accurate levelling is
ensured by one or more adjustable feet
at the base of the cabinet.
WARNING!
It must be possible to disconnect
the appliance from the mains
power supply; the plug must
therefore be easily accessible af-
ter installation.

install this appliance should be
carried out by a qualified electri-
cian or competent person.
