appliance, the set temperature is
only reached after several hours.
Do not put any food in the appli-
ance until the set temperature has

slightly. This prevents condensa-
tion in the area of the door seal.
¡ When you close the door, a va-
cuum may be created. The door is
then difficult to open again. Wait a
moment until the vacuum is offset.
¡ The temperature in the appliance
varies due to the following condi-

opened
– Load capacity

food
