Climate Range; Ventilation Requirements - Miele KFN 4374 ED ws Operating Instructions Manual

Climate range

This refrigeration appliance is designed
for use within specific ambient temper-
atures (climate range). Do not use in
ambient temperatures for which it is not
designed.
A lower ambient temperature leads to
the compressor switching off for longer
periods. This can cause the internal
temperature in the refrigeration appli-
ance to rise with the risk of food deteri-
orating and going off.
The climate range is stated on the data
plate in the interior cabinet of the refri-
geration appliance.

difficulties in rooms with a cooler am-
bient temperature (down to +5 °C).

Ventilation requirements


Risk of fire and damage due to
insufficient ventilation.
If the refrigeration appliance is not
ventilated sufficiently, the com-
pressor 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.
Please ensure that there is adequate
ventilation around the refrigeration
appliance.
It is essential to observe the required
ventilation gaps.
The ventilation gaps must not be
covered or blocked in any way.
They must also be regularly dusted.
Air at the back of the refrigeration appli-
ance gets warm. Sufficient space for
proper ventilation must therefore be en-
sured (see "Installation dimensions").
