Installation; Electrical Connection - Siemens FI18NP Series Operating Instructions Manual

Installation

Installation location
Install the appliance in a dry, well
ventilated room. The installation location
should neither be exposed to direct
sunlight nor near a heat source, e.g.
a cooker, radiator, etc. If installation
next to a heat source is unavoidable,
use a suitable insulating plate or observe
the following minimum distances to
a heat source:
– 3 cm to an electric cooker.
– 30 cm to an oil or solid-fuel cooker.
The floor on which the appliance is to
be installed must be rigid. If required,
reinforce the floor. To ensure that the ice
maker functions correctly, the appliance
must be upright.
Observe ambient temperature
and ventilation
The atmosphere grade is written on the
identification plate. It states the room
temperature within which the appliance
can be operated.
Atmosphere Permitted ambient
grade temperature
+10 ° C to 32 ° C
SN
+16 ° C to 32 ° C
N
+16 ° C to 38 ° C
ST
+16 ° C to 43 ° C
T
Ventilation
Never cover the ventilation openings
in the base panel. The cooling motor
otherwise has to increase ist output,
and this increases the electricity
consumption.
Fixing
For secure installation, the appliance
screwed to neighbouring kitchen
furniture and/or units.
It is very important therefore that all
bordering furniture and/or units are fixed
securely to the floor and/or walls.
If making structural changes fix the
appliance in place again corresponding
to the the installation instructions.
Installation surface
A load-bearing base is necessary
because of the heavy weight of the fully
laden appliance.
The weight of the appliance when fully
loaded:
– 45.7 cm appliance
– 61.0 cm appliance
– 76.2 cm appliance
In case of doubt, consult an architect
or structural engineer.

After installing the appliance, wait at
least ½ hour until the appliance starts
up. During transportation the oil in the
compressor may have flowed into the
refrigeration system.
Before switching on the appliance for
the first time, clean the interior of the
appliance (see "Cleaning the appliance",
page 16).
Electrical
connection
Do not use an extension lead or a multi-
plug socket.
The plug to secure the appliance must
be freely accessible. Connect the
appliance to a 220
current via a plug which has been
properly installed. The socket must be
fused with a 10 A fuse or higher.
For appliances operated in non-
European countries, the identifi-
cation plate should be checked
whether the electric supply and the
current model stated match the vales
250 kg
of the mains supply. The rating plate
350 kg
is situated in the bottom left-hand
425 kg side of the appliance. Any necessary
exchanging of the mains lead should
carried out by a specialist electrician.

Warning
Never connect the appliance to
electronic energy saver plugs or to
power inverters which convert the
direct current to 230 V alternating
current (e.g. solar equipment,
power supplies on ships).
