TEMPERATURE SELECTION

YOUR APPLIANCE MAY HAVE A MECHANICAL (DIAL) OR
DIGITAL THERMOSTAT. DIAL INSTRUCTIONS ARE BELOW.
DIGITAL INSTRUCTIONS ARE ON PAGE 10.
HOW TO ADJUST THE THERMOSTAT
Your appliance may be controlled with a thermostat knob located
inside the unit, towards the right-hand corner. Turn the knob
clockwise from the STOP (0) position toward the higher numbers
for colder temperatures.

Temperature Controls


Higher settings on the knob (higher numbers) mean lower
temperatures (colder) in all compartments of the appliance. The
temperature inside a refrigerator may even drop below 32°F. Use
higher thermostat settings only when required or recommended.
When the ambient temperature is normal, we recommend a medium
setting.

Changes of the ambient temperature affect temperature in the interior
of the appliance, so keep this in mind when choosing the setting of the
thermostat knob.

In STOP (0) position, the appliance does not operate (the cooling
system is switched off), yet the power supply is not interrupted (the
light is on when you open the refrigerator door).

The temperatures in the refrigerator and in the freezer compartment
also depend on how often you open the door.
In all small refrigerators and freezers without interior fans, tempera-
tures are coldest near the bottom, and occasionally near the rear.
Place contents accordingly.
For optimum temperature performance, it is recommended that this
unit be at least 30% full during use. If you are only using this unit to
store small loads, we recommend adding some water bottles or
freezer packs to ensure temperature stability.
