A refrigeration appliance, especially a domestic refrigeration appliance, comprises at least one storage chamber (3), an evaporation tray (9) for evaporating condensed water carried off from the storage chamber (3), a temperature sensor (15) arranged on the evaporation tray (9), a control unit (13) connected to the temperature sensor (15) and a heating device (10) which can be operated by the control unit (13) to increase the evaporation rate in the evaporation tray (9). The control circuit (13) is designed to decide (S6; S6'), based on a change (T1-T0) in the temperatures (T0, T1) detected by the temperature sensor (15) during a measurement operating mode ([t0, t1], [t2, t3], [t4, t5]; S1-S5, S1-S5') of the heating device (10), whether operation of the heating device (10) is carried on or discontinued. An evaporation mode ([t5, t6]; S9) of the heating device (10) in which the evaporation tray (9) is heated up beyond the highest temperature (T1) measured during the measurement operating mode is only activated if the change (T1-T0) is less than a first threshold value (dTmin). |
