Preparations
• Setting up:
- Place the unit on an even, stable, clean, nonslip, dry
and fireproof surface.
- Keep at least 20 cm of open space on the front and
rear side.
- The place for installation should be large enough and
provide sufficient air ventilation to ensure the room
does not warm up excessively because of the heat
from device radiates to the environment.
- Do not set up the device in the immediate vicinity of
heat sources and do not expose to sun light.
- Cooling machine, pump motor and electronics pro-
duce intrinsic heat that is dissipated via the venting
grids! Never cover these venting grids!

least one hour before starting the
operation.
