Ventilation
Risk of fire and damage due to
insufficient ventilation.
If the refrigeration appliance is not
ventilated sufficiently, the com-
pressor will run more frequently and
for longer periods. This will result in
increased energy consumption and a
higher operating temperature for the
compressor. This may, in turn, cause
damage to the compressor.
Please ensure that there is adequate
ventilation around the refrigeration
appliance.
It is essential to observe the required
ventilation gaps.
The ventilation gaps must not be
covered or blocked in any way.
They must also be regularly dusted.
Air at the back of the refrigeration appli-
ance gets warm. The appliance housing
unit must therefore be constructed to
allow sufficient space for ventilation
(see “Installation dimensions” and the
installation instructions provided).
Furniture door panel
Horizontal and vertical gaps
Depending on the style of kitchen fur-
niture, the thickness and edge radius of
the furniture door panel and the gap
that runs around the door, vertically and
horizontally, are specified.
It is essential to pay attention to the
following:
- Horizontal gap
The gap between the furniture door
panel and the housing unit door above
or below it must be at least 3mm.
- Vertical gap
If the gap between the refrigeration
appliance furniture door panel and
the adjoining housing unit door or
wall on the hinged side is too small,
the appliance door could collide with
the adjoining housing unit door or
wall when opened.
It may be necessary to adjust the
size of this gap to suit the thickness
and edge radius of the appliance fur-
niture door.
This must be taken into consideration
when planning your kitchen and when
replacing an old refrigeration appliance
with a new one to ensure the installation
conditions required are met.
