ADJUSTING THE FREEZER TEMPERATURE
1. Select the freezer control. (Top knob).
2. Rotate the knob clockwise to set Colder.
3. Rotate the knob anti-clockwise to set Less Cold.
COLDEST FREEZER SETTING IS NOT RECOMMENDED
IN NORMAL AND VERY HOT CLIMATES AS THIS
WILL LIMIT THE COOLING TO THE REFRIGERATOR
SECTION.
In very cold climates (where temperatures are below
10°C) the freezer may need to be set colder.
Set the temperature by using the main temperature controls at
the rear of the refrigerator compartment. When you first start
your refrigerator, set both refrigerator and freezer controls to
MID. The refrigerator temperature control is affected by altitude
and it is recommended that it be set warmer to compensate. E.g.
At 1000 metres above sea level set the refrigerator temperature
control to one setting warmer than MID.
WAIT 24 HOURS AFTER CHANGING SETTINGS: When you
change temperature settings, make small adjustments and
wait 24 hours before assessing whether you need to make any
further changes.
