Operating tips
Once you have switched on the
¡
appliance, the set temperature is
only reached after several hours.
Do not put in any food in the appli-
ance until the temperature is
reached.
The front panels of the housing are
¡
temporarily heated slightly. This
prevents condensation in the area
of the door seal.
When you close the door of the
¡
freezer compartment, a vacuum
may be created and you may not
be able to open the freezer door
again immediately. Wait a moment
until the vacuum is offset.
The refrigeration system may
¡
cause several areas of the freezer
shelves to frost quickly. The frost
has no effect on the function or the
energy consumption of the appli-
ance. If frost or ice thicker than
5 mm has formed on the entire
surface of the freezer shelf, the ap-
pliance must be defrosted.
