Depth is the cabinet figure and leaves out hose and tap clearance behind the machine.
Will it fit
The cabinet measures 600 mm wide, 565 mm deep and 850 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.
