Ambient temperature
The appliance is designed for a specific
climatic class. Depending on the climatic
class, the appliance can be operated at
the following room temperatures.
The climatic class can be found on
the rating plate, Fig. 9.
Room temperature switch
If the room temperature drops
below 16 °C, the freezer compartment
of appliances belonging to climatic
class SN may become too warm.
In an extreme case the frozen food may
thaw. To prevent this from happening,
switch on the room temperature switch.
As a result, the refrigerating unit
operates more frequently. The appliance
can now be operated at a room
temperature of +10 °C to +16 °C.
To switch on, press the room
temperature switch, Fig. 2/B. Mark “0”
is no longer visible. The light inside
the appliance is lit at a reduced
luminosity.
To save energy, switch off the room
temperature switch as soon as the room
temperature exceeds +16 °C.
Ventilation
The air on the rear panel of
the appliance heats up. Conduction of
the heated air must not be obstructed.
Otherwise, the refrigeration unit must
work harder. This increases power
consumption. Therefore: Never cover
or block the ventilation openings!
Installation location
Install the appliance in a dry, well
ventilated room. The installation location
should neither be exposed to direct
sunlight nor near a heat source, e. g.
a cooker, radiator, etc. If installation next
to a heat source is unavoidable, use
a suitable insulating plate or observe
the following minimum distances to a
heat source:
■ 3 cm to electric or gas cookers.
■ 30 cm to an oil or coal-fired cooker.
