Warning system
The warning system comprises of an optical warning light
(red) and an acoustic warning tone. The red warning light
and the warning tone signal an alarm if the temperature in
the freezer compartment is too warm.
Temperature Warning
The red warning light illuminates and the warning tone sounds if the
temperature in the freezer compartment is warmer than -12°C.
An increase in the temperature in the freezer compartment may be
caused by
- frequent or extended opening of the door;
- storing large quantities of warm food;
- a high ambient temperature;
- a malfunction in the cooling system.
☞1. Switch off the warning tone by pressing the WARNING OFF button.
The warning light and warning tone switch off automatically when the
ACTUAL temperature in the freezer compartment drops again and
returns to the range of the display.
2. Additionally operate FROSTMATIC by depressing the FROSTMATIC but-
ton for more than one second.
The amber pilot light (5) comes on and the refrigerator motor runs
continuously.
3. After the storage temperature has been reached, press the FROSTMATIC
button again to switch off the FROSTMATIC function. The yellow light
goes out.
Note: when the appliance is switched on for the first time, the warn-
ing light and the warning tone signal an alarm because the necessary
storage temperature in the freezer compartment has not yet been
reached.
