Aligning the appliance

To ensure that the appliance functions correctly, it must
be set level with a spirit level.
If the appliance is not level, water may flow out
of the ice maker, ice cubes may be irregular
or the doors may not close properly.

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.
Always connect the water before the power.
Apart from statutory national regulations, you should
stick to the connection terms relating to the local
electricity and water companies.
After installing the appliance, wait at least 1 hour until
the appliance starts up. During transportation the oil
in the compressor may have flowed into
the refrigeration system.
Before switching on the appliance for the first time,
clean the interior of the appliance (see chapter
"Cleaning the appliance").

Water connection

The water may be connected only by a competent fitter
according to the local regulations of the appropriate
water supply company.

Electrical connection

Do not use extension cables or distributors. This
appliance must be connected to a permanently
installed socket.
The socket must be near the appliance and also freely
accessible following installation of the appliance.
The appliance complies with the protection class I.
Connect the appliance to 220-240 V/50 Hz alternating
current via a correctly installed socket with protective
conductor. The socket must be fused with a 10 A to
16 A fuse or higher.
For appliances operated in non-European countries,
the identification plate should be checked whether
the electric supply and the current model stated match
the values of your mains supply. The rating plate is
situated in the bottom right-hand side of the appliance.
The power cord may be replaced by a technician only.

Warning
Never connect the appliance to electronic energy saver
plugs.
Our appliances can be used with mains and sine-
controlled inverters. Mains-controlled inverters are used
for photovoltaic systems which are connected directly
to the national grid. Sine-controlled inverters must be
used for isolated applications (e.g. on ships or in
mountain lodges) which are not connected directly to
the national grid.
