Setting the temperature
WARNING
Health hazard!
The appliance may not operate proper-
ly if exposed to low ambient tempera-
tures for extended periods of time. This
can then lead to an increase in temper-
ature inside the appliance.
■
Always abide by the prescribed am-
bient temperature (see the
‘
Climate
categories
’
line on page EN-24).
NORMAL

You can set the temperature with the help of
the temperature controller (1). The cooling
power is variable and adjustable from ‘MIN’
to ‘MAX’. “MAX” is the lowest temperature.
At the prescribed ambient temperature, the
setting ‘NORMAL’ will suffice if you do not
open the door too often and always close it
Operation
correctly. Otherwise the energy consumption
and the temperature in the freezer may rise.
What you need to do
1. Set the temperature controller (1) to
‘NORMAL’.
The appliance is then switched on. The
compressor starts to work, the refrigerant
flows through the pipes and a quiet hum-
ming sound can be heard.
If the appliance makes unusual noises,
check that it is on a solid base and re-
move any objects that are on top of the
appliance.
2. If the ambient temperature changes,
adapt the temperature setting, e.g. to-
wards ‘MAX’ in the summer.
Switch off/shutdown
If you do not want to use the empty freezer
for an extended period, switch it off in the fol-
lowing way:
1. Pull out the mains plug to switch off the
freezer.
Notice: If you set the temperature control-
ler to ‘MIN’, the freezer is
not
switched
off.
2. Remove all food from the freezer and
store it in a cool place so that the food
does not spoil.
3. Remove the drawers.
4. Clean the freezer. (See chapter ‘Cleaning
and maintenance’, page EN-13.)
5. Leave the door open slightly to avoid
mould formation in the interior.
You have now decommissioned the freezer.
