Another registration carries this brand and model number. The register records one row per application, so a model can be registered more than once, and the figures on each row can differ. The other is ARF3432 (166 kWh/yr).
Cabinet figures only. Manufacturers specify ventilation clearance per model, and doors can need more than the cabinet's width to open fully — both are in the model's manual.
Will it fit
The cabinet measures 1646 mm wide, 717 mm deep and 847 mm high in the Australian Government's energy-rating database. Enter the space it has to go in.
Not included. These are cabinet figures. Manufacturers state a ventilation clearance per model in the installation instructions; a figure typed into the Clearance box applies to both sides, the back and the top. No clearance figure for this model is held here, so the answer above allows none until one is entered.
