Ventilation

To ensure efficient operation the
appliance requires sufficient ventilation:

– the gap between the bottom edge of

the freezer and the floor on which it
is standing must not be covered.

– there must be a minimum distance of

20 cm from the ventilation grille to the
wall to ensure that ventilation to and
from the appliance is unhindered.

– the ventilation grille should be dusted

on a regular basis.
