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

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.
