Alarm function
Door alarm
The door alarm switches on if an appliance door is left
open for longer than three minutes. Close the door
to switch off the warning signal.
Temperature alarm
The temperature alarm switches on if the freezer
compartment is too warm and the frozen food is at risk
of thawing.
The set temperature of the freezer compartment
flashes and “Alarm” is displayed on the display panel.
When the alarm button
Ú
is pressed, the temperature
display for the freezer compartment indicates for five
seconds the warmest temperature reached
in the freezer compartment.
Then this value is deleted. The temperature display for
the freezer compartment indicates the set freezer
compartment temperature without flashing.
Henceforth the “warmest temperature” will be
redefined and saved.
The alarm display goes out as soon as the set
temperature has been reached again.

when the appliance is switched on,
▯
when large quantities of fresh food are placed
in the appliance,
▯
if the freezer compartment door is open too long.
Switching off the alarm
