2.4. Cooling aggregate 2.4.1. Replacing cooling aggregate Attention! The cooling aggregate of refrigerators that are equipped with a temerature controller (as of April 2002) must only be replaced when also replacing the temperature controller or, in the event of a circuit break in the temperature controller, the cooling aggregate must also be replaced at all times. - Page 23 Final assembly of temperature controller, mounting onto aggregate: (This procedure is not necessary for appliances with no temperature controller) Figure 99 Figure 99 presents the necessary elements and tools, for your information. Cut the wire of the temperature controller to size, according to the size of the wire of the temperature controller on the replaced aggregate.
