  2. The side by side should definitely be on a horizontal surface. Place a spirit level on the device and level out unevenness in the floor with wedges or adjust the feet of the device, if such a function is available.
  3. Lay the water connection and connect it to the refrigerator. Remember that it is a pressure line and always use a connection with a water stop.

With some models this function can be switched off, with others it is switched off via a circuit breaker because the pump detects that no water is being added. With a few models, unfortunately, an annoying alarm tone sounds in this case, which makes continuous operation of the side-by-side without a water connection impossible.
