Observe 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 room temperatures.
Climate class Permitted ambient temperature
+10 °C to 32 °C
SN
+16 °C to 32 °C
N
ST +16 °C to 38 °C
T +16 °C to 43 °C
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.

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").

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. These
specifications can be found on the rating plate.

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.
