Switching Off The Appliance - AEG SANTO Series Operating Instructions Manual

Ambient temperature
3. If you want a higher or lower temperature, turn the temperature regu-
lator to a warmer or cooler setting respectively.
Important!
High ambient temperatures (e.g. on hot summer days) and a cold set-
ting on the temperature regulator (position"5" to "6") can cause the
compressor to run continuously.
Reason: when the ambient temperature is high, the compressor must
run continuously to maintain the low temperature in the appliance.
The fridge will not be able to defrost since automatic defrosting of the
fridge is only possible when the compressor is not running (see also
"Defrosting" section). The result is the build up of a thick layer of frost
on the fridge rear wall.
If this happens, turn the temperature regulator back to a warmer set-
ting (position "4" to "5"). At this setting the compressor will be
switched on and off as usual and automatic defrosting recommenced.
