Area Requirements

Verify the following:

• Finished kitchen floor height is level. Appliance must be shimmed level if the floor heights are not equal to make sure air vents are not obstructed.

• Remove anything attached to rear or side walls that can obstruct door opening.

• Cutout dimensions are accurate.

• Electrical outlet is in correct location.

Do not install this refrigerator-freezer next to any other refrigerator or model except another Liebherr model. Liebherr models are designed to allow side by side installation.They are equipped with a heating system to eliminate condensation when refrigerators or freezers are installed side by side.

Installing this refrigerator-freezer next to any other refrigerator or freezer can cause condensation or cause damage to the Liebherr refrigerator-freezer.

WARNING!

ELECTROCUTION HAZARD

Electrical grounding required. This appliance is equipped with a three-prong

(grounding) polarized plug for your protection against possible shock hazards.

• Do not remove the round grounding

prong from the plug.

• Do not use a two-prong grounding

adapter.

• Do not use an extension cord to connect power to the unit.

CAUTION!

To protect the appliance from possible damage, allow the appliance to stand 1/2 to

1 hour in place before turning the electricity on. This allows the refrigerant and system lubrication to reach equilibrium.

Electrical Requirement

If codes require a separate grounding circuit to be used, have a qualified electrician install the circuit.

WARNING!

Do not ground to a gas pipe. Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure the appliance is properly grounded. Do not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit.

WARNING!

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD

• Electrically ground the appliance.

• Do not use an extension cord.

• Failure to follow these instructions

could result in fire or electric shock.

Customer’s Responsibility

A 115 Volt, 60 Hz, 15 Amp fused electrical supply is required. We recommend using a dedicated circuit for this appliance to prevent electrical overload.

Follow the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances when installing the receptacle.

Blocking for Safety

WARNING!

The anti tipping brackets must be installed to prevent the appliance from tipping after it is installed. Refer to Blocking for Safety.

Unit Venting

Do not restrict the air flow. Air flow must be provided for the unit to operate.

C = 24-13/16" (630 mm)

D = 52-3/8" (1330 mm)

E = 31-3/32" (790 mm)

Overall height of the appliance can be increased by a maximum of 5/8” (see Leveling the appliance).

Unit Venting

- Figure 2

Do not restrict the air flow. The opening can either be directly over the appliance and below the ceiling in a soffit 3 .

1 , above the cabinet

or through a vent installed

The cabinet height as specified at 80” (2032 mm) will create a 1-5/16” (33 mm) gap above the appliance providing optimal air flow over the top of the appliance for its efficient operation.

Be sure to consider the possibility of having to raise some of the leveling legs in order to level the appliance when installing. If you adjust the height of the appliance - it will effectively reduce air flow.

Therefore leave yourself some room for adjustment.

IMPORTANT

The section below the freezer door and the floor must not be covered.
