of at least 20 m
3
and must be adequately ventilated as well as
follow all relevant national and local regulations. Further the
room should have a window (which can be opened) or a door
to the outside.
It is important that the refrigerator is not subject to radiation
of heat from a stove etc.
For best performance also at high ambient temperatures there
must be a free air circulation over the cooling unit at the rear
of the refrigerator.
The refrigerator is designed for a free-standing installation
and the clearance to the rear wall and to possible side walls,
should be at least 25 mm. The clearance above the refrigera-
tor should be at least 100 mm.
The refrigerator must be adjusted to a vertical position in
both directions. Use the feet on the refrigerator to adjust its
position.
LP GAS CONNECTION
The refrigerator is designed for operation on LP gas, the
pressure of which must be 30 mbar for Propane. Check that
this is stated on the data plate.
The refrigerator is not designed for operation on town gas or
natural gas.
Check that the gas supplied to the refrigerator
is at the correct pressure. See the reducing valve
on the lp gas container.
The gas installation and servicing should only be carried out
by an authorized, qualified person and must conform to all
relevant national and local regulations.
The gas supply system must incorporate a pressure regulator
to maintain a supply pressure of not more than 2.75 kPa.
The supply pipe should preferable be of copper. If any other
material is used, it must be of a type approved for use with
continuously operating bottled-gas appliances, and have
threaded connections throughout.
All connectors etc. should be of a type specifically designed
for the type and diameter of the connection pipe used, and
screwed joints should be sealed with a joining compound ap-
proved for use with bottled gas.
The gas supply pipe should be connected to the gas valve at
the rear of the refrigerator, by means of a suitable threaded
coupling. The gas valve is furnished with a ISO 7/1 - Rp 1/8
internal pipe thread connection. In making the connection to
the refrigerator, a union gas cock of an approved bottled-gas
type must be incorporated in the supply line in a position that
is readily accessible to the user.
For servicing purposes, the union should be on the outlet side
of the cock and the pipework should be positioned so as not
to prevent the refrigerator from being readily withdrawn.
All completed connections should be checked for leaks with
soapy water. DO NOT use a flame to check for gas leaks.
