10 Noises and warnings Noises and warnings 10.1 Operating noise The appliance can make various noises during operation. Although the appliance is noise-optimized, some noise cannot be eliminated completely. This noise depends on the size of the appliance, how it is installed and the cooling requirements (e.g. fast cool- ing), the ambient temperature and the installation conditions.
11 Trouble-shooting Note on when the temperature value is raised If a temperature value (actual value) is 10 °C above the selected set value for more than two hours, an acoustic signal is emitted for a limited time. The relevant zone and the zone temperature flash in the display.
