COOLING

Key Features

InfinitySwipe: Monolith’s intuitive electronic touch-control panel features a full-color 2.4-inch touch & swipe screen that’s bright, clean, and wonderfully user-friendly. You’ll barely have to lift a finger to control every function.

SmartDevice: Monolith comes with a

SmartDeviceBox which can be controlled via a smartphone or tablet, activating settings and features while on the go. SmartDevice can also help you become a better chef by using internal cameras to tell you what items you’ll need for a recipe, and voice recognition to order what you’re missing.

BioFresh: BioFresh is an advanced food preservation system featuring independent climate controls, where you can create a high-humidity environment for fruits and veggies in one drawer, and a low-humidity environment for meats and cheeses in another. FlexSystem: This simple-touse organization system helps sort and separate foods stored in your favorite BioFresh drawer.

BioFresh-Plus: Liebherr’s BioFresh technology guarantees the perfect climate for superior, long-lasting food freshness. In addition to two

BioFresh drawers, the third Monolith refrigerator

drawer can be set as BioFresh-Plus, lowering temperatures down to 28 ºF, ideal for storing fresh fish and seafood.

InfinitySpring: The seamlessly integrated, flush- mounted InfinitySpring internal water dispenser is there when you need it, and virtually invisible when you don’t, and can accommodate pitchers of any size. Liebherr’s filtration system eliminates harmful contaminates, resulting in crisp, clear, fresh tasting water.

PowerCooling: Liebherr’s high-performance

PowerCooling system ensures that newly stored foods are quickly cooled, while maintaining an even temperature throughout the interior. Taking this system one step further, Monolith circulates cold air behind the door, meaning that items stored in the door stay just as cold as everything else inside.

InfinityLight: Monolith’s seamlessly integrated

LED side-wall lighting casts a beautiful and even glow that can be adjusted according to taste, including a soft brightening effect upon opening the doors, and a pleasing night dimming feature.

InfinityLight doesn’t just add drama and flair, it also emits less heat, preserving food quality.

Gallon Storage: Monolith’s durable and elegant door shelves provide more cubic feet and convenience. Store gallon jugs of tea, juice and milk on the door, freeing up the refrigerator’s interior shelves for everything from party platters to fresh salad bowls.

UL 60335-2-24 First Edition

Electrical Requirements & Safety

A 15 amp or 20 amp, 110-120 VAC, circuit which is grounded and protected by a circuit breaker or fuse is required.

We recommend using a dedicated circuit for each appliance to prevent circuit overload and the chance of interruption to the appliance.

The appliances are equipped with a three-prong (grounding) polarized plug for protection against possible shock hazards.

Comply with the National Electrical Code as well as local codes and ordinances when installing the receptacle.

WARNING!

Electrocution hazard.

Electrical grounding required.

• Do not remove the round grounding prong from the plug.

• Do not use extension cords or ungrounded

(two-prong) adapters.

• Do not use a power cord that is frayed or damaged.

• Do not use a power strip.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in fire, electrical shock or death.

WARNING!

The refrigerant R600a contained within the appliances is environmentally friendly, but flammable. Leaking refrigerant can ignite.

To prevent possible ignition, designed ventilation is required.

Internal Water Dispenser and IceMaker

(if equipped)

Monolith appliances that are equipped with an internal water dispenser or an IceMaker must be connected to a water supply.

The water supply pressure requirements are different based on whether or not the supplied Liebherr water filter is installed.

With the filter installed, the pressure must be in the range of 40–90 psi (2.8–6.2 bar). Without the filter installed the acceptable pressure range is 22–87 psi (1.5–6 bar).

Use a braided style IceMaker hose with 1/4" compression end or a 1/4" OD copper line to connect the water supply with the solenoid valve of the appliance. This is not supplied with the appliance.

If you have hard water, we recommend you install a water

softener. Also, a filter must be installed if the water contains solids such as sand.

All equipment and devices used to supply the water to the appliance must comply with the current regulations for your geographical area.

All models equipped with an internal water dispenser or IceMaker include a water filter located in the front base of the product.

Water filters must be replaced periodically. An alarm in the

InfinitySwipe will indicate when the water filter must be replaced.

Safety Instructions and Warnings

• Do not attach the water source while the appliance is connected to an electrical outlet.

• A shut-off valve must be installed between the hose line and the main water supply so that the water supply can be stopped if necessary. Do not install the shut-off valve behind the appliance.

• The connection to the water supply may only be made by a trained and licensed plumber.

• The water quality must comply with the drinking water regulations for the geographical area where the appliance is located.

• The IceMaker is designed exclusively to make ice cubes in quantities needed by a household, and may only be operated with water appropriate for this purpose.

• All repairs and work on the IceMaker may only be done by

Customer Service personnel or other trained personnel.

• The manufacturer cannot accept liability for damage caused by equipment or water lines between the solenoid valve and the water supply.

Installation Dimensions

When planning the cut out, it is essential that the top and side interior walls be flush to the appliance at a minimum depth of 4" (102 mm) from the outer edge of the face frame and composed of thick

(5/8" (16 mm) minimum) material for secure installation. Also, because the case interior will be partially visible when the refrigerator door is opened, always ensure that the top and side returns are finished to match the exterior furniture at the same minimum depth of 4" (102 mm).

Monolith columns are designed to be fully flush integrated when installed in 25" (635 mm) deep cabinets, by using the stainless steel panels offered as accessories, or custom door panels that perfectly match the rest of kitchen cabinetry.

The typical wood panel thickness is 3/4" (19 mm), however thicker panels or other materials can be used.

When using custom panels, always ensure that the panel reverse is finished to match the exterior, as parts of the panel reverse will be visible when the refrigerator door is opened. Monolith columns include a sealing set in order to cleanly close the gaps between appliance and cabinet side walls. When using custom panels, do not exceed the maximum panel weight allowed by the door hinge of the specific column.

Maximum door weight

52 lbs. (24 kg)

79 lbs. (36 kg)

Monolith columns are designed to fit any type of kitchen cabinetry door installation, whether 25" depth as the typical North America style, or the 24" depth known as European style.

The depth of the Monolith columns is 24" (610 mm), which allows for the appliances to be installed in an

European style kitchen cabinetry which requires 24"

(610 mm) and also a 25" (635 mm) deeper cut out to accommodate different types of installation like standard overlay, full overlay, offset or flush inset installation.

The cut out is the niche in which a Monolith column is installed. The width of the cut out can be the one of a single column (18", 24", 30", etc.) or the one for a Side-by-Side combination (42", 48", 54", etc.), this will depend on the column models considered.

In the North American style cabinetry, the total depth of the cut out is equal to the depth of the niche plus the face frame. It does not necessarily include the thickness of the door panel, as this will depend on the installation style.

For a Standard Overlay on an American Style cabinet and frameless installation in European style cabinet, use the door panel dimension specified as frameless installation.

For a flush inset installation, use the door panel dimensions of inset installation.

For any other type of installation, please refer to Door Clearance Requirements (page 35) to define the door panel dimensions.

Installation Options

Recommended Installations

Stand-Alone

Considerations

All Monolith appliances can be installed as a left-hinge or right- hinge stand-alone unit. When dimensioning the cabinet, include the thickness of the door panel and handle (see page 35, Door

Clearance Requirements).

Ensure the Monolith appliance is installed so the door has clearance from any adjacent wall or any kitchen element.

Side-by-Side within one cabinet

Monolith appliances can be installed Side-by-Side within one cabinet by installing a Side-by-Side kit, which must be purchased separately.

When dimensioning the cabinet, include the thickness of the door panel and handle (see page 35, Door Clearance Requirements).

During design and installation, please take into account the layout of left and right hinged appliances without the risk of door opening collision.

Ensure that the Monolith appliances are installed in such a way that the doors do not interfere with any adjacent wall or any kitchen element.

Side-by-Side within separate cabinets

Monolith appliances can be installed Side-by-Side within separate cabinets. If the panel between the cabinet is less than 3/4" (19 mm) a Side-by-Side heater kit is required. The heater must be ordered separately.

When dimensioning the cabinet, include the thickness of the door panel and handle, in order to prevent any door opening collision (see page 35,

Door Clearance Requirements).

A minimum partition of 6" (154 mm) width is required to ensure that handles to not collide when doors are opened centered towards each other or facing each other.

Ensure that the Monolith appliances are installed so the doors have clearance from any adjacent wall or kitchen element.

Side-by-Side Installation

The cut out width for the Side-by-Side combinations is defined by adding the single width of each of the models considered in the combination. Below you can find the cut outs for 42", 48" and 54" niches.

Cabinet depth frameless installation style = 24" (610 mm)

Cabinet depth inset installation style = 24" (610 mm) plus panel thickness

This is the point where the power cord exits from the appliance rear, 3/4" (19 mm) from the left and 5" (127 mm) from the floor. Free length of the power cord is 98" (2.5 m).

The appliance has a recess in this area for cable and waterline laying. 1" (25 mm) in depth and 5 1/2" (140 mm) in height over the whole width of the appliance.

This surface is visible when the appliance door is open. Designed finish is required.

Toe Kick and

Ventilation Requirements

All Monolith ventilation takes place through the Toe

Kick area. Door panels must be a minimum of 4" above the floor. Do not block grill in Toe Kick area.

Liebherr offers a 4" (102 mm) tall Toe Kick matching the width of the Monolith columns, and possible Sideby-Side combinations, as an accessory. Please refer to page 27 for Toe Kick accessories ranging from 18" to 54" width.

The Monolith appliance comes with dividers that must be installed on the appliance and onto the door, in order to separate the warm exhaust air from the fresh incoming air.

Door Clearance Requirements

It is fundamental that the Monolith appliances are installed so the doors (including handles) and adjacent cabinets, countertops, walls, or other kitchen elements do not collide with one another when doors open.

In case of door collision, a door limitation of 90° may be used. Please refer to the User Manual on how to limit the door opening.

Additional solutions include:

• Reduce the door panel thickness if it is larger than 3/4" (19 mm).

• Rearrange the element that is colliding with the appliance.

• Use a bumper or stopper to prevent the door from damaging the adjoining wall or cabinet.
