Setting up

  • Avoid positioning the appliance in direct sunlight or near cookers, radiators and similar sources of heat.
  • The floor on which the appliance stands should be horizontal and level.
  • Do not cover ventilation openings or grille.
  • Standard EN 378 specifies that the room in which you install your appliance must have a volume of 1 m³ per 8 g of R 600a refrigerant used in the appliance, so as to avoid the formation of inflammable gas/air mixtures in the room where the appliance is located in the event of a leak in the refrigerant circuit. The quantity of refrigerant used in your appliance is indicated on the type plate on the inside of the appliance.

Electrical connection
Only operate the appliance with alternating current (AC).
The permissible voltage and frequency are indicated on the type plate. The position of the type plate is shown in the section entitled Description of the appliance (in the operating instructions). The socket must be properly earthed and protected by a fuse. The tripping current of the fuse must be between 10 A and 16 A. Do not connect the appliance using an exten- sion cable or extension socket.

Do not use stand-alone inverters (conversion of direct current to alternating/three-phase current) or energy-saving plugs. Risk of dam-age to the electronic control system!

The required air flow is directed through the plinth. It is important to use the provided ventilation grille for the ventila-tion opening. This opening must not be covered.

Installation dimensions

The socket must be positioned within the areas marked in grey or above the installation recess. The ice maker is fitted in the freezer compartment of the com-bined refrigerator-freezer. It must be connected to the mains water supply to work. The water shut-off valve must be positioned within the areas marked in grey.

WARNING!
The water shut-off valve must not sit directly above the socket! The gap between the water shut-off valve and the socket must comply with the regulations of the country in which the appliance is used!

Mounting the anti-tipping device

WARNING!

The supplied anti-tipping bracket must be installed in all cases. This prevents the appliance from tipping over when the fully loaded door is opened.

Installation:

  • Mark the centre line of the appliance on the floor. Align the anti-tipping bracket centre to the centre line.

CAUTION!

Ensure that there are no electric cables or water pipes in the wall section to which the anti-tipping bracket is to be secured. These could be damaged during installation.

  • Secure the anti-tipping bracket to the floor using the 3 screws (6 mm x 60 mm) included in the accessory pack. The distance between the leading edge of the body of the unit and the rear edge of the anti-tipping bracket is 610 mm.

Important!
When securing the anti-tipping bracket to a concrete floor, use suitable plugs! If the floor slopes down sideways, the anti-tipping bracket must be fitted horizontally. Lay down spacers in the appropriate positions.

Connection to the water supply

Safety instructions and warnings

  • Do not connect to the water supply while the combined refriger-ator-freezer is connected to the electricity supply.
  • The connection to the mains water supply may only be made by trained personnel.
  • The water quality must comply with the drinking water directives of the country in which the appliance is used.
  • The ice maker is designed exclusively to make ice cubes in quantities required by a household and may only be operated with water suitable for this purpose.
  • All repairs and work on the ice maker may only be carried out by customer service personnel or other trained personnel.
  • The manufacturer cannot accept liability for damage caused by a faulty connection to the mains water supply.

Water pressure
The water pressure must be between 0.15 and 0.6 MPa (1.5 – 6 bar).

Important!
If the water filter is inserted in the appliance, the water pressure must lie between 0.3 and 0.6 MPa (3 – 6 bar). If the water pressure with the inserted water filter is too low, this may cause the ice maker to malfunction.LIEBHERR ECBN 6256 PremiumPlus BioFresh NoFrost Refrigerator fig-5
The water supply to the appliance must be through a cold water pipe that can withstand the operating pressure and complies with the hygiene regulations. For this, use the stainless steel hose supplied (length 3 m).LIEBHERR ECBN 6256 PremiumPlus BioFresh NoFrost Refrigerator fig-6
