Ambient temperature

and ventilation

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.

Ventilation

Fig. 

The air on the rear

panel of the appliance heats up.

Conduction of the heated air must

not be obstructed. Otherwise,

the refrigerating unit must work harder.

This increases power consumption.

Therefore: Never cover or block

the ventilation openings!

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. This

information can be found on the rating

plate. Fig. 

Climate class Permitted ambient

temperature

SN +10 °C to 32 °C

N+16 °C to 32 °C

ST +16 °C to 38 °C

T+16 °C to 43 °C

ã=Warning

Never connect the appliance

to electronic energy saver plugs.

Our appliances can be used with mains

and sine-controlled inverters. Mains-

controlled inverters are used

for photovoltaic systems which

are connected directly to the national

grid. Sine-controlled inverters must be

used for isolated applications (e.g. on

ships or in mountain lodges) which are

not connected directly to the national

grid.

Fig. 

Refrigerator

compartment

The refrigerator compartment is the ideal

storage location for ready meals, cakes

and pastries, preserved food, condensed

milk, hard cheese, fruit and vegetables

sensitive to cold as well as tropical fruit.

Note when loading products

Wrap or cover food before placing

in the appliance. This will retain

the aroma, colour and freshness

of the food. In addition, flavours will not

be transferred between foods

and the plastic parts will not become

discoloured.

Note

Avoid contact between food and rear

panel. Otherwise the air circulation will

be impaired.

Food or packaging could freeze

to the rear panel.

Note the chill zones

in the refrigerator

compartment

The air circulation in the refrigerator

compartment creates different chill

zones:

■Coldest zone

is on the rear panel inside

the appliance and in the chiller

container. Fig. 

Note

Store perishable food e.g. fish,

sausage, meat in the coldest zones.

■Warmest zone

is at the very top of the door.

Note

Store e.g. cheese and butter

in the warmest zone. When served,

the cheese will not have lost its flavour

and the butter will be easy to spread.
