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.

To align the appliance:

1. Place the appliance in the designated location.
2. Align front feet with a hexagon wrench.
3. Align rear feet with an Allen key.

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.

drinking water mains. Do not use existing or already

used hose sets.
Connect the appliance to a drinking water line only:

Maximum pressure: 0.8 Mpa (8 bar)

Pressure over 0.8 MPa (8 bar): install a pressure

limiter between drinking water connection and hose

The maximum outside diameter of the water mains

(without connecting pieces) is 10 mm.

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.
