Gaggenau 299 Refrigerator User Manual


 
Installation options.
The modular refrigerator and freezer column concept from Gaggenau oers you a variety of installation possibilities. In some
instances, special accessories are required!
Individual column installations
Any appliance can be installed as a stand-alone unit. Ensure a cutout
ush to the appliance at a depth of minimum 4" (102mm), preferably 6"
(152 mm) on the top and sides.
Note: It is absolutely essential to ensure that the appliance is installed in
such a way that the doors do not interfere with an adjacent wall or other
kitchen elements.

At the end of a cabinetry run
All Gaggenau refrigeration appliances must be completely enclosed on
the top and sides. If one side of the appliance is visible, a decorative
side panel must be used for covering it. This side panel must be
properly axed to the oor, room wall and any overhead furniture/
xtures before the appliance is placed in the cutout.

Side-by-Side installations (SxS)
The proper installation of any side-by-side two column combination
requires an installation kit (RA 460 000). It combines two individual units
into a side-by-side unit. For combinations that involve freezers and wine
columns, this kit is already pre-installed to the unit. For all other SxS
combinations or instances where any appliances are installed less than
6" (152 mm) apart from another but not connected SxS, a heating kit
(RA 460 010) is required.
Note: A partition of minimum ⅝" (16 mm) is required to ensure the
doors do not interfere with one another when opened. Use a partition
to separate appliances and observe the door swivel range. (See page
177 for details on door swivel range dimensions.)

Multiple column installations with partition walls between
When dimensioning the partition, note the thickness of the door panel
(including handles) as well as the swivel range (see page 177 on swivel
range) to prevent damage if the doors are opened at the same time. If
the thickness of a partition between two products is less than 6", then
a heating kit (RA 460 010) is required. It must be installed on the right
side wall of the left-side appliance.
Three appliances can be installed together only if a partition — minimum
⅝" (16 mm) — is placed between two of the appliances. Ensure that
door panel thickness (including handles) as well as the swivel range are
accounted for.
