Technical Terminology
•
Refrigerant
Liquids that can be used to a generate a cooling effect
are known as refrigerants. They have a relatively low
boiling-point, indeed so low, that the warmth from the
food stored in the fridge or freezer can cause the refrig-
erant to boil and vaporise.
•
Refrigerant Circuit
Closed circulation system that contains the refrigerant.
The refrigerant circuit comprises primarily of an evapo-
rator, a compressor, a condenser and pipe work.
•
Evaporator
The refrigerant is evaporated in the evaporator. Similar
to all other liquids, refrigerant requires heat to evapo-
rate. This heat is removed from the interior of the appli-
ance, as a result the interior is cooled. The evaporator is
therefore located inside the appliance or placed in foam
immediately behind the inner wall and thus not visible.
Customer Service
If you cannot find the remedy for a malfunction in these
operating instructions, please contact your dealer or our
customer service department. Addresses and telephone
numbers are listed in the accompanying booklet "Guarantee
Conditions/Customer Service Locations".
Selective ordering of replacement parts can save unneces-
sary travel and costs. For this reason always provide the fol-
lowing appliance information:
•Model Name
•Model Number (PNC)
•Serial Number (S-No.)
This information can be found on the rating plate in the inte-
rior at the left of the appliance. We recommend that you
enter this information here, so that it is handy if needed.
Note: The customer bears the costs of unjustified customer
service calls even during the guarantee period.
•
Compressor
The compressor looks like a small drum. It is driven by a
built-in electric motor and is mounted on the base of the
appliance at the rear. The task of the compressor is to
draw in vaporised refrigerant from the evaporator, to
compress it, and to pass it on to the condenser.
•
Condenser
The condenser normally has the form of a grid. The
refrigerant compressed in the compressor is liquefied in
the condenser. During this process, heat is released to
the surrounding air at the surface of the condenser. The
condenser is mounted on the base of the appliance.
