Using the display

Setting the temperature

If the compartment concerned is switched off, the word OFF will appear on the relative indication space on the display (REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT setting and FREEZER COMPARTMENT setting). If the compartment is switched on, then the temperatures set at that time will appear. To change them, turn the relative knob directly (REFRIGERATOR OPERATION Knob and FREEZER OPERATION and APPLIANCE ON/OFF Knob).

The refrigerator compartment can be set to between +2°C and +8°C, while the freezer compartment can be set to a temperature of between -18°C and -26°C. The temperature in both cases can be increased or decreased by 1°C at a time.

When the HOLIDAY function is enabled, temperature regulations cannot be made, but the appliance automatically sets itself to the best setting for the situation: +12°C for the refrigerator compartment (if enabled) and -18°C for the freezer compartment.

Holiday function

To minimise energy usage when on holiday, it is not necessary to switch the appliance off. The appliance has a function which allows it to maintain the temperature of the refrigerator compartment at approximately 15°C (which can also be used to conserve make-up and beauty products). The freezer temperature must be set to the minimum value in order to preserve the food.

Using the refrigerator to its full potential

•Use the REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob to adjust the temperature (see Description).

•Activate the SUPER COOL function to lower the temperature quickly. For example, when you place a large number of new food items inside a fridge, the internal temperature will rise slightly. The function quickly cools the groceries by temporarily reducing the temperature until it reaches the ideal level.

•Place only cold or lukewarm foods in the compartment, not hot foods (see Precautions and tips).

•Remember that cooked foods do not last longer than raw foods.

•Do not store liquids in open containers. They will increase humidity in the refrigerator and cause condensation to form.
