Alarm
The appliance is equipped with an alarm system to ensure that the temperature in the freezer section does not rise unnoticed, and to avoid energy being wasted if the door is left open.
Switching the alarm system
ON
The alarm system is always active. It does not need to be switched on manually.
Temperature alarm
If the temperature becomes too warm, an alarm will sound and the temperature display will flash. The temperature the appliance is set at will determine when the alarm is triggered.
The alarm will sound and the display will flash under the following conditions:
–whenever too much warm air flows into the appliance, for example when food is being loaded,
–whenever large amounts of food are being frozen at once.
–whenever there has been a lengthy interruption of the power supply.
Door alarm
If the appliance door is left open for longer than approx. 60 seconds, the alarm signal will sound.
Switching the alarm OFF early
Once the set temperature has been reached in the freezer section, the alarm signal stops and the temperature display stops blinking. If the alarm signal bothers you, it can be switched off early.
^Press the alarm off button. The alarm signal will stop. The temperature display will continue to blink until the set temperature has been reached. The display then stops blinking, and shows a steady reading. At this point, the alarm system is ready again if needed.
