– Air intake  occurs via the plinth at
the bottom of the appliance and the
air escapes at the top  at the rear
of the housing unit.
– A ventilation gap of at least 40mm
depth must be allowed for behind the
appliance for air to circulate.
– The ventilation cross-sections in the
plinth, housing unit and above the
appliance must amount to a free air-
flow of at least 200cm² to ensure
that air can circulate without
hindrance.
If ventilation grilles are to be inserted
into the ventilation gaps, the ventila-
tion gaps must be larger than
200cm². The free airflow of 200cm²
results from the total of the ventila-
tion cross-sections in the grille.
– Important. The appliance uses less
energy, the larger the ventilation
gaps.
The ventilation gaps must not be
covered or blocked in any way. They
should be dusted on a regular basis.
Top ventilation gap
The ventilation gap at the top of the ap-
pliance can be constructed in different
ways:
a
directly above the appliance with a
ventilation grille (free airflow of at
least 200cm²).
b
in between the housing unit and the
ceiling
c
through a suspended ceiling.
