NOTICE
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)
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. It also can cause damage to
the compressor.
Installing and connecting the
appliance
Have a technician install and connect the appliance
according to the enclosed Installation Instructions.
Do not remove the transportation protection devices
from the shelves and storage compartments until the
appliance has been installed and aligned.
Always connect the water before the power.
Apart from statutory national regulations, you should
comply with all applicable local electricity and water
companies' codes and requirements.
After installing the appliance, wait at least 6 hours
before switching the appliance on. During
transportation the oil in the compressor may have
flowed into the refrigeration system.
Before switching the appliance on for the first time,
clean the interior of the appliance (see chapter
“Cleaning the Appliance”).
Only a qualified technician should remove the
appliance doors if this is necessary in order to bring
the appliance through any household doors.
Water connection
WARNING
Risk of electric shock and damage to the appliance!
Disconnect the appliance from the power source
before performing any work on the water
connection.
Only a qualified installation technician may connect
the appliance to the water supply in accordance
with plumbing and relevant water utility company
regulations.
Connect the appliance to a drinking water line only:
n Minimum pressure:
14.5 psi (1.0 bar)
n Maximum pressure:
116 psi (8.0 bar)
If the water pressure exceeds 80 psi (5.5 bar), you
must install a pressure limiting valve. Contact a
plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to
check your water pressure. The ice maker will not
work if the water pressure is below 14.5 psi (1.0 bar).
The water should be connected only by a competent
plumber according to the local regulations of the
appropriate Water Supply company.
A cold water connection is necessary for operating the
ice maker.
A separate Shut-Off-Valve should be installed in the
cold-water inflow.
The Shut-Off-Valve should not be located behind the
appliance. It is recommended that you mount the
Shut-Off-Valve directly next to the appliance or at
another place that is easily accessible.
When installing the water connection, pay attention to
the permissible installation area for the water line.
For connection to the drinking water line use only
water pipes that are suitable for drinking water.
Observe national regulations and the connection
conditions of the local Water Supply companies.
The taste and smell of the water can be improved by
installing the filter cartridge included with the
appliance. In this case, observe the separate
connection requirements related to the filter (see
”Water filter”).
The water hose has a 3/4 inch connection.
