General notes
Necessary air cross section
at the door edges
Installation behind kitchen
furniture doors
Appropriate measures must be taken
to prevent these types of doors from
closing when the appliance is heating
or while it is cooling down (fan
operation).
Combination of ovens and
Vario cooling 400 series appliances
Please check the planning notes in
the information for Vario cooling
400 series appliances in order to
prevent the refrigerator door from
colliding with the oven.
Installation side by side
When appliances are installed side by
side, the clearance between the
appliances must be at least 10 mm
(corresponds to the standard out-
side measurement of the furniture
cavity of 600 or 762 mm).
The door hinges need to be placed
outside in order to use the full available
door opening angle.
Gaggenau ovens are cooled with fresh
air at the top edge and side edges of
the door. Hot air is blown out at the
door bottom edge. Combi-steam ovens
and Combi-microwave ovens
have the air inlet at the side edges of
the door and the hot air and steam
outlets at the top edge of the door.
In order to prevent appliances from
overheating and to ensure that they
cool down as required after operation,
appropriate minimum cross sections
of free space must be maintained from
kitchen furniture edges.
The measurements given in the dra-
wing apply to all appliances.
The following must also be observed:
The area above the appliances
BS:
No other electrical appliances
should be installed above the BS.
It is recommended that a horizontal
handle is not fitted on furniture
above the BS.
Where the edge of a kitchen unit
protrudes more than 20 mm from the
front edge of the furniture cavity, the
edge of the kitchen furniture panel
must be steam resistant as is the case
above a dishwasher. Steam may pos-
sibly penetrate into the compartment.
The area below the appliances
DV / WS:
It must be ensured that there is
sufficient access to the lower edge of
the vacuuming drawer and warming
drawer, if the thickness of the kitchen
furniture door is greater than 20 mm in
front of the furniture cavity.
