Power level COLDER:
medium level → optimal operating temp.
Temperature range approx. +3°C∼+7°C
Power level COLDEST*:
highest level → coldest internal temp.
Temperature range approx. 0°C∼+6°C
*Beware of high setting because the maximum level
usually already means "freezing point".
The temperature of the freezer is automatically con-
trolled via the power level in the fridge.
Freezer compartment with air circulation control
You can choose between minimum and
maximum air supply (air circulation) using
a slide control behind the vegetable box.
The internal temperatures are minimal
influenced.
min. air supply – temperature rise in the freezer →
min. temperature drop in the fridge
med. air supply – no temperature change, nor-
mal operation
max. air supply – Temperature drop in the free-
zer → min. temperature rise in the fridge
The max. air supply is recommend briefly when u-
sing the appliance for the first time and, if necessary
to lower the freezer temperature as quickly as pos-
sible.
Basically, the temperature changes depending on the
ambient temperature (place of installation), the fre-
quency of opening the door and the equipment.
During initial operation, adjust the coldest possible
temperature, until the appliance has reached the
desired operating temperature. Afterwards it is rec-
ommended to turn the control back to a medium set-
ting; correcting the temperature at a later point would
then be easier.
NOTE:
In generally a low to medium power level works best
for an optimized food storage. A high power level
also increases the energy consumption.
Interior light
When opening the fridge door, the interior light will
turn on automatically.
Storing food
NOTE: Recommendation!
To guarantee that the temperature is low enough,
you should pre-cool the appliance a few times before
initial loading foods.
CAUTION:
Always pay attention to the storage instructions on
the sales packaging.
To avoid contamination of food, respect the following
instructions:
Opening the door for long periods can cause a
significant increase of the temperature in the
compartments of the appliance.
Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact
with food and accessible drainage systems (see
"Cleaning and Maintenance").
Store raw meat and fish in suitable containers in
the refrigerator, so that it is not in contact with or
drip onto other food.
If the appliance is out of use for long period, fol-
low the instructions under "Switching off".
Storage space
Depending on requirements, shelves/drawers (par-
tially and depending on model) can be adjusted in
height or removed to optimize the storage space.
