Ambient temperature
The appliance is designed for a specific
climate class. Depending on the climate
class, the appliance can be operated at
the following temperatures.
The climate class can be found on
the rating plate. Fig. (

Note
The appliance is fully functional within
the room temperature limits
of the indicated climatic class. If
an appliance of climatic class SN
is operated at colder room temperatures,
the appliance will not be damaged up to
a temperature of +5 °C.
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.
Permitted ambient
temperature
+10 °C to 32 °C
+16 °C to 32 °C
+16 °C to 38 °C
+16 °C to 43 °C
To switch on, press the room
temperature switch, Fig. "/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!
Cavity depth
A cavity depth of 560 mm
is recommended for the appliance.
If the cavity depth is smaller – at least
550 mm – the energy consumption
increases slightly.
