Abstract
A domestic appliance has a carcass, a door for closing an inner space, a differential pressure sensor having a sensor membrane for identifying a difference in pressure between an interior air pressure in the inner space and an exterior air pressure in an outer space, a door opening aid for assisting the door opening process, and a control unit for the door opening aid which is dependent on the detected difference in pressure. The control unit is configured to detect a pressure curve of the difference in pressure and to control the door opening aid depending on the pressure curve that has been detected.
