Ventilation - Miele K 34272 iD Operating And Installation Instructions

Climate range
The appliance is designed for use within
a certain climate range (ambient tem-
peratures) and should not be used out-
side this range. The climate range of the
appliance is stated on the data plate in-
side the appliance.

Operating in a room which is too cold
will cause the compressor to switch off
for too long, causing the internal tem-
perature in the appliance to rise with the
risk of food deteriorating and going off.

Ventilation


If the ventilation gaps given are
not observed, the compressor will
run more frequently and for longer
periods.
This will result in increased energy
consumption and a higher operating
temperature for the compressor. This
may, in turn, cause damage to the
compressor.
It is essential to observe the ventila-
tion gaps given.
Air at the back of the appliance gets
warm. The appliance housing unit must
therefore be constructed to allow suffi-
cient space for ventilation (see "Build-
ing-in dimensions").

– Air intake  occurs via the plinth at
the bottom of the appliance and the
air escapes at the top  at the back
of the housing unit.
– A ventilation gap of at least 40 mm
depth must be allowed for behind the
appliance for air to circulate.
– The ventilation cross-sections in the
plinth, housing unit and above the
appliance must each provide an un-
obstructed airflow of at least 200 cm²
to ensure that air can circulate
without hindrance.
If ventilation grilles are to be inserted
into the ventilation gaps, the ventila-
tion gaps must be larger than
200 cm². The unobstructed airflow of
200 cm² is calculated by adding up
the total area of ventilation openings
in the grilles.
– Important! The appliance uses less
energy, the larger the ventilation
gaps.
