Recommended ambient temperatures

Respect the climatic classes indicated in the product information on the appliance's nameplate. You can use this to check the recommended temperature range of the room where the appliance is located:

SN: Between 10 and 32^
- N: Between 16 and 32^ C
SN: Between 16 and 38^
- Tel.: Between 16 and 43^ C

A multi-class appliance can handle the lowest and highest temperature of all classes covered. Using the appliance outside the recommended temperature range will lead to inferior performance and premature ageing.

Temperature control adjustment

For optimal use and to save energy, adjust the temperature control(s) of the appliance according to the ambient temperature of the room in which it is being used and respect the climatic class.

Refer to the product sheet to find out the climatic class associated with the minimum and maximum recommended ambient temperatures for the appliance as well as the temperature setting recommended for storing food under optimal conditions.

The ambient temperatures in ^ C are given as a rough guide.

The set positions can be affected by the location of the appliance in the room, how often the door is opened or the load of food inside.

The temperature control may need to be changed to compensate for these factors.

Examples of locations:

• Room which is unheated in winter, such as a garage in a cold region.
• Living area which is normally heated, such as a kitchen.
• Room with no air conditioning in summer in a hot region.
