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. 1/12
This area needs to be well ventilated.
Otherwise, the refrigeration unit will work
harder. This increases energy
consumption. Therefore: Never cover or
block the ventilation opening!
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.
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”).
