About climate categories
• Always ensure the prescribed ambient
temperature is maintained (see “Intended
use” on page EN-4).
Climate category means that the appliance
is intended for operation at the ambient tem-
perature specified below (see table ‘Climate
categories’). If the room temperature drops
significantly below this, the unit will not switch
on as often. This indicates that an unwelcome
increase in temperature may occur.
