About climate categories
• Always ensure the prescribed ambient
temperature is maintained (see “Intended
use” on page EN-4).
Climate category means that the appliance is
intended for operation at the specified ambi-
ent temperature (see table “climate catego-
ries”). If the room temperature drops signif-
icantly below this, the unit will not switch on
as often. This indicates that an unwelcome
increase in temperature may occur.
