vent, or other means of
ventilation needs to be
provided to ensure a
natural flow of air
There should be space
at the rear of the

to be drawn over the
condenser.

Important
Please follow the instructions to install this unit. The open channel at
the rear is clearly shown. For the correct operation of the appliance
it is important that the top of the housing unit is not blocked o. A
channel depth of 40-50mm is normal with most units.
A hole is shown in the base shelf of the unit; this allows air to be
drawn over the compressor & heat exchange. Some installers fit
a decorative plinth vent. In most cases this is not required, but is a
welcome aesthetic addition.
As a rule, the more air can get in, the better and more ecient the
operation of the product.
