Controlling the Temperature of the Freezer Compartment

The control wheel on the front panel adjusts the internal freezer temperature. The internal freezer temperature should be -18˚C or colder.

The setting of the control wheel will depend on the location of the freezer, the room temperature and how often the door is opened. The normal set point (marked by a 3 on the dial) is usually suitable. If you need to adjust the temperature turn the control wheel using a coin to avoid damage:

Clockwise (higher number) - Colder

Anti-clockwise (lower number) - Warmer

CONTROLS

You can check the temperature of the freezer compartment by using a Fridge Freezer Thermometer available from Hotpoint Genuine Parts and Accessories Mail Order Hotline (see KEY CONTACTS back page).

WARNING: Do not use a mercury filled thermometer, as breakage would cause a health hazard.

Your freezer must NOT be placed in a room where the temperature goes below 6˚C or above 32˚C for prolonged periods, as the internal freezer temperature will not be maintained.
