Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a refrigerator unit and/or freezer unit having a refrigerated inner space and having an outer unit wall, wherein at least one vacuum insulation body is arranged between the refrigerated inner space and the outer unit wall to minimize the heat input from outside into the refrigerated inner space, wherein the vacuum insulation body and/or the contact region of the unit to which it is to be connected is/are provided with a hot melt adhesive; the vacuum insulation body is moved into the desired position relative to the contact region and is applied there; and the hot melt adhesive is then activated by the effect of heat.
