Temperature and door alarm
27
The appliance has been fitted with a
warning system which ensures that the
temperature in the freezer cannot rise
unnoticed, and avoids energy being
wasted if the refrigerator section door is
left open.
Freezer section with
temperature alarm
If the temperature in the freezer
becomes too warm, the temperature
display and the alarm symbol
will
flash. An audible alarm will also sound.
The temperature the appliance is set at
determines the temperature the
appliance recognises as being too
warm.
Audible and visual signals will be
activated, for example,
– when the appliance is switched on if
the temperature in the appliance
differs greatly from the set
temperature,
– if a lot of room air enters the freezer
when food is being loaded,
rearranged or taken out,
– when freezing large amounts of food
at once,
– when freezing fresh food which is still
warm,
– in the event of a power cut,
– if the appliance has a fault.
The alarm will stop and the alarm
symbol
will go out when the
temperature reaches the correct level
again. The temperature display will light
up again constantly.
If the temperature in the freezer
remains above -18 °C for a long
time, check that the frozen food has
not started to defrost.
If it has, check that the food is safe
to use and if it is, then use it as soon
as possible or cook it before freezing
it again.
