Ventilation

WARNING! Risk of fire!
Operation of the appliance is limited.
Keep the required ventilation gaps
free from obstruction.
Noncompliance with the specified di-
mensions for the ventilation grille will
cause the compressor to turn on
more often and run for longer peri-
ods.
This causes increased energy con-
sumption and an increased com-
pressor operating temperature,
which can result in damage to the
compressor.
Do not block the ventilation gaps.
They must also be cleaned on a reg-
ular basis to remove dust.
