Room temperature switch
If the room temperature drops below +16 °C, the
freezer compartment of appliances belonging to
climate 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 refrigeration 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. Red
mark becomes 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
e16 °C.
Ventilation
The refrigeration unit is ventilated only via the
ventilation grille in the base. Never cover the
ventilation grille or place anything in front of it.
Otherwise the refrigeration unit must work harder,
increasing the power consumption.
Connecting the appliance
After installing the appliance, wait at least 1 hour until
the appliance is switched on. During transportation
the oil in the compressor may have flowed into the
refrigeration system.
Before switching on the appliance for the first time,
clean the interior of the appliance (see chapter
“Cleaning the appliance”).
Electrical connection
The socket must be near the appliance and also freely
accessible following installation of the appliance.
The appliance complies with the protection class I.
Connect the appliance to 220-240 V/50 Hz alternating
current via a correctly installed socket with protective
conductor. The socket must be fused with a 10 to 16 A
fuse.
For appliances operated in non-European countries,
check whether the stated voltage and current type
match the values of your mains supply match
the values of the mains supply. These specifications
can be found on the rating plate.
