Your appliance has been fitted with a
warning system which ensures that the
temperature in the freezer section
cannot rise unnoticed and to avoid
energy being wasted if a door is left
open.
Temperature alarm
An alarm will sound and the
temperature display behind the door
will flash if the temperature in the
freezer section gets too warm. The
temperature display on the outside of
the appliance door will also flash
alternately with

. The temperature
the appliance is set at determines the
temperature the appliance recognises
as being too warm.
The alarm will sound and the relevant
temperature display will also flash:
– if the freezer section door has been
left open for a while, e.g. in order to
load, re-arrange or take food out.
– when freezing large amounts of food
at once.
– when there has been a lengthy
interruption to the power supply.
Door alarm
If one of the doors is left open for more
than approx. 60 seconds, the alarm will
sound and the temperature display on
the outside of the appliance door will
flash alternately with
;
(the symbol for
an open door).
Activating the alarm system
The alarm system is always active. It
does not have to be switched on
manually.
Switching the alarm off early
Once the set temperature has been
reached in the freezer section, the
alarm will switch off and the
temperature display behind the door
will stop flashing and light up
constantly. The display on the outside
of the appliance door will now show the
temperature only. However, if the noise
disturbs you, you can switch the alarm
off before this if you wish.

Press the alarm off button.
The alarm will stop. The temperature
display will continue to flash until the
set temperature has been reached or
the door has been shut again. The
display then stops flashing and lights
up constantly. The alarm system is
now ready should it be needed
again.
