The following table shows the installation options by model: Installation option Model Single All models Side-by-side (SBS) Model names starting with S.... See the supplied SBS installation guide for the correct positioning. Side-by-side All models without side wall heating with a gap of 70 mm between appliances Otherwise condensation will build up between the units. Fig. 2 Assemble the appliances together, following their specific installation instructions. 2.4 Mains connection (1) Top cabinet (2) Appliance (3) Kitchen cabinet (4) Wall (A) Appliance depth A [mm] B [mm] C [cm2] Fig. 1 (B) Door depth (C) Ventilation cross section (D) Distance to the back of the appliance (E) Distance to the side of the appliance D [mm] E [mm] 75 min. 300 min. 50 min. 57 Appliances with lever handle 675 x WARNING Improper use! Fire. If a mains cable/plug comes into contact with the back of the appliance, the mains cable/plug can be damaged by appliance vibrations and this may result in a short circuit. u Stand the appliance so that it is not touched by connectors or main cables. u Do not connect any appliances to sockets in the area of the back of the appliance. u Multi-sockets/power distributors and other electronic appliances (such as halogen transformers) may not be placed and operated at the back of appliances. Set up the appliance directly next to the kitchen cabinet (3). At the back of the top cabinet, there must be an air outlet shaft with the depth (D) spanning the entire width of the cabinet. The ventilation cross-section (C) must be maintained under the ceiling. If the appliance is set up with the hinges next to a wall (4), the distance between the appliance and the wall must be at least 57 mm. This is how far the handle protrudes when the door is open. The appliance must protrude by the depth of the door (B) from the front of the cabinet so that the doors can be opened fully. The appliance may protrude further depending on the depth of the kitchen cabinets (3) and whether wall spacers are used. * Depending on model and options 3 Installation dimensions 6 Unpacking the appliance 3 Installation dimensions Before you connect the appliance, report any damage immediately to the delivery company. u Check the appliance and the packaging for damage during transport.
