Operation Function 9-1) Digital Panel 9-2) Temperature Control Function When the system power is initally engaged, the default set temperature are -2℉ for the freezer and 38℉ for the set refrigerator, respectively. The numbers shown on the digital display panel stand for the actual compartments temperatures.
Operation Function 3) When you select Power Freeze and Power Cool together Each function works at the same time. The COMP and F-FAN run continuously and the R-FAN runs until 25℉ in the refrigerator. 4) Initial Power-On 4-1) When the freezer and the refrigerator temperatures are higher than 14℉ and 50℉, respectively, if Power Freeze is selected, then the R-FAN will be off.
Operation Function 9-6) Forced Operation function (Power cool key + Refrigerator. Temp 8sec.) This function enables a pull-down mode, a defrost mode for the refrigerator only, a defrost ● mode rigerator at the same time, and a cancellation of this function. Press Power Freeze and Refrigerator Temp.
Operation Function 9-7) Power failure compensating function 1) When the freezer temperature is lower than 50℉, all functions on the display panel will be restored. 2) When the freezer temperature is higher than 50℉, all functions will be initialized. (2℉ for the freezer, 38℉ for the refrigerator, and Cubed for the Ice Type) 9-8) Exhibition Function This function is for a display purpose on the floor of show room or store.
