Installation space requirements

• The floor must be capable of bearing the weight of the appliance plus approximately 218 kg to 544 kg of food, depending on model.
• The installation surface must be level, even and made of a hard, rigid material at the same height as the rest of the room.
• Recess dimensions and power socket position must be correctly measured and the socket must be easily accessible, not behind the appliance.
• Appliance height including packaging and pallet is 2285 mm for transport planning.
• The appliance should only be installed next to Liebherr refrigerators, freezers or wine cabinets when installed Side-by-Side with the appropriate set.

Recess and door panel requirements

• Top and carcass walls must line up flush with the appliance at a depth of at least 102 mm from the outside edge and be at least 16 mm thick.
• Units are designed for flush installation in recesses 635 mm deep with stainless steel panels or customer-specific panels.
• Custom panels must not exceed the maximum permitted panel weight of 30 kg and maximum thickness of 25 mm.
• The appliance depth is 610 mm and can be installed in 610 mm or 635 mm deep cut-outs.
• Door panels for inset installation: height 2029 mm, width 603 mm; overlay installation: height 2032 mm (plus panel overlap at top), width 610 mm (plus overlap at sides).
• Panel thickness must be minimum 16 mm* and maximum 25 mm; maximum panel weight 30 kg.
• Installations behind the appliance are not possible.

* When using fronts thinner than 16 mm, shorter screws than those provided in the accessory kit must be used.

Adjustable feet and anti-tipping device

• Adjustable feet are fully retracted for the minimum appliance height; the appliance is raised once positioned in the recess.
• To achieve a plinth panel height of 102 mm, adjustable feet must be raised by 6–8 mm; for higher plinth panels they can be raised by up to 19 mm.
• The anti-tipping device at the base must be secured to the floor or wall to prevent the appliance from tipping over.

Ventilation requirements

• The appliance is ventilated entirely via the plinth panel; door panels must close at least 102 mm above the floor.
• The grille in the plinth panel must not be obstructed.
• Wall spacers/air separators supplied must be fitted to separate warm outgoing air from fresh air flowing in.
• A 102 mm high stainless steel plinth panel is available as an accessory in widths to match individual or Side-by-Side configurations.

Door spacing and Side-by-Side installation

• To avoid collisions with adjoining walls or kitchen elements, include a minimum spacing of 76 mm for a door opening limited to 90°.
• For Side-by-Side installations with spacing under 102 mm, a Side-by-Side set is required.
• In back-to-back door positioning, a minimum spacing of 154 mm is necessary.
• The door opening angle is 115° as standard and can be limited to 90° using the supplied door opening limiter.
• The minimum permitted gap between adjoining door panels is 4 mm.

Electrical safety

• The appliance must only be operated using alternating current at the permitted voltage and frequency for the relevant country.
• Power sockets must be earthed, electrically protected, not located behind the appliance and easily accessible.
• A separate circuit is recommended to help prevent defrosting or spoiling of food due to failures caused by other appliances.
• Do not connect the appliance to unearthed power sockets, extension cables, multi-sockets or inverters due to risks of electric shock or fire.

Ambient temperature and operation

• Wine cabinets are designed for climate class SN–ST with ambient temperatures from 10 °C to 38 °C.
• Appliances are intended for refrigerating, freezing and storing food and for making ice (if equipped).
• Do not operate outside the specified ambient temperature ranges.

Water connection (for models with InfinitySpring or IceMaker)

For Monolith appliances fitted with an InfinitySpring integrated water dispenser or IceMaker, a water supply connection is required. The water pressure must be between 2.8 and 6.2 bar and only the supply hose delivered with the appliance may be used. A shut-off valve must be installed between the hose and mains water supply and must not be located behind the appliance.

• Connection to the water supply must only be undertaken by a trained and licensed plumber.
• Water quality must comply with local drinking water regulations; a water softener is recommended for hard water and a filter must be used if solids such as sand are present.
• Appliances with InfinitySpring or IceMaker have a water filter in the front section of the base; this must be replaced regularly and an InfinitySwipe alarm reminds when replacement is due.
• Water connection work must not be performed while the appliance is connected to an electrical socket.
