Using your refrigerator

Temperature Control And
Adjustment
The operating temperature is regulated
by the temperature control.
1 = Lowest cooling setting (Warmest
setting)
Fast Freeze = Highest cooling setting
(Coldest setting)
Please choose the setting according to
the desired temperature.
The interior temperature also depends
on ambient temperature, the frequency
with which the door is opened and the
amount of food kept inside.
Frequently opening the door causes the
interior temperature to rise.
For this reason, it is recommended to
close the door again as soon as possible
after use.
The normal storage temperature of your
appliance should be -18 °C (0 °F). If the
thermostat is turned counter clockwise
from position 1. Lower temperatures can
be obtained by adjusting the thermostat
towards position Fast Freeze.
We recommend checking the
temperature with a thermometer to
ensure that the storage compartments
are kept to the desired temperature.
Remember to take the reading
immediately since the thermometer
temperature will rise very rapidly after
you remove it from the freezer.

Freezing Fresh Food

Please observe the following
instructions to obtain the best results.
Do not freeze too large a quantity at
any one time. The quality of the food
is best preserved when it is frozen
right through to the core as quickly as
possible.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity of
your appliance in 24 h which is 10 kg
(22 lb) Placing warm food into the
freezer compartment causes the
refrigeration compressor to operate
continuously until the food is frozen
solid.If you are going to freeze fresh
food in excess of 2kg. (4.5 lb) turn the
thermostat to the fast freeze position
a few hours before placing the fresh
food in the freezer.Remember to turn
the thermostat back to its previous
position once food has frozen.It is
recommended to place fresh food to
be frozen in fast freeze compartment
of the freezer.Take special care not to
mix already frozen food and fresh food.
