Installation
Your Refrigerator Needs Air
Integratable models (i-appliances)
The integrated door of the furniture cabi-
net largely seals the installation recess.
i-appliances must therefore be provided
with ventilation by having an opening in
the furniture plinth. The warmed air must
be able to be exhausted upwards through
the air shaft on the furniture back. The
ventilation cross-sections should be at least
200 cm
2
.
Warning - To ensure the appliance functions correctly, never cover or
obstruct the ventilation openings.
Installation
See installation instructions supplied.
Please check whether, after installing your appliance and especially
after reversing the door, the door seal seals right round. A badly fitting
door seal may lead to heavy frosting and thereby to a higher power
consumption (see also „What to do if...“).

Power Supply
A correctly installed, earthed socket is required for the electrical sup-
ply. The supply must have a fuse rating of at least 13 Amps. If the
socket is not accessible once the appliance is built in, the electrical
installation must include suitable means of isolating the appliance
from the mains (e.g. a fused spur).
Before initial start-up, refer to the appliance rating plate to ascertain
if supply voltage and current values correspond with those of the
mains at the installation location.
e.g.: AC 220 ... 240 V 50 Hz or
220 ... 240 V ~50 Hz
(i.e. 220 to 240 volts alternating current, 50 Hertz)
The rating plate is inside the appliance on the left.
The mains cable may only be changed by a qualified electrician or
competent person. If your appliance needs repairing, please contact
your local Service Force Centre.
