Electronic display controls – Electronic models
The electronic display panel consists of an LCD display with
white backlighting and 6 touch buttons. When the power
is first turned on, the display with backlighting will come on.
If no buttons have been pressed and the fridge door is
closed the backlighting will turn off after 30 seconds.
NOTE: If no buttons have been pressed for approximately
60 seconds, there may be a delay of up to 2 seconds before
the display reacts. This is normal and is to prevent accidental
changes to settings.

Controlling the temperature

We recommend that when you start your refrigerator for the first
time, the temperature for the refrigerator is set to 3°C and the
freezer to -18°C. If you want to change the temperature, follow
the instructions below. Make only small adjustments and wait
24 hours to see if it's correct. Checking the softness of ice cream
is a good indication if your freezer is the right temperature, while
feeling the coldness of water kept in the refrigerator is a good
way of checking the temperature of the food compartment.
NOTE: When you set a temperature, you set an
average temperature for the whole refrigerator cabinet.
Temperatures inside each compartment may vary,
depending on how much food you store and where you
place it. High or low room temperature may also affect the
actual temperature inside the refrigerator.
Changing the freezer temperature
Press the freezer button to make the freezer
colder in 1°C steps. Once the maximum of
-23°C is reached, the display will return to
-14°C with the next press of the button. The bar graph gets
smaller with colder freezer settings.
Changing the refrigerator temperature
Press the fridge button to make the
refrigerator colder in 1°C steps. Once 0°C is
reached, the display will return to 7°C with
the next button press. The bar graph gets smaller with
colder refrigerator settings.
Fast freeze function
Use the fast freeze function when you add a
large amount of food to the freezer
compartment. This freezes the food quickly
but does not affect the temperature in the refrigerator
compartment. To use this function, press the fast freeze
button once. An animated icon will light up. The fast freeze
function will now operate for 90 minutes. If you want to turn
the fast freeze function off before 90 minutes have passed,
simply press the fast freeze button again. The icon will
disappear and the freezer will return to normal operation.
