Selecting the correct temperature

You can make changes to the temperature displays behind the door by pressing the buttons as follows:

–When first pressed, the last temperature selected flashes.

–Each subsequent press of the button adjusts the temperature shown in

1 °C increments.

–Holding the button in adjusts the temperature continually.

Approx. 5 seconds after letting go of the button, the current temperature of the refrigerator or freezer section is automatically shown.

If you have adjusted the temperature, wait for approx. 6 hours if the appliance is not very full and for approx. 24 hours if the appliance is full before checking the temperature display as it will take this long for the display to give an accurate reading. If, after this time, the temperature is still too high or too low, you will need to adjust it again.

Temperature range

The temperature can be adjusted:

–In the refrigerator section from 2 °C to 11 °C

–In the freezer section from -14 °C to -28 °C

The ambient temperature in the room and the installation location can affect the time it takes for the appliance to reach the lowest temperature. If the ambient temperature is too high, the appliance may not reach the lowest temperature.

Temperature displays

During normal operation the temperature displays on the control panel show the temperature in the middle of the refrigerator section and the temperature in the warmest part of the freezer section.

If the temperature in the appliance is not within the range that the appliance is able to display (above 0 °C in the refrigerator section, and below 0 °C in the freezer section), bars will flash in the temperature displays.

The temperature displays flash if

–a different temperature is being set,

–the temperature in the appliance has risen by several degrees, indicating that the appliance is warming up too much.

This loss of coldness is no cause for concern in the following circumstances:

–when the door has been left open for a while, e.g., for removing or loading a large amount of food,

–when fresh food is being frozen.

However, if the temperature in the freezer section remains above -18 °C for a long time, check that the frozen food has not started to defrost. If food has defrosted or started to defrost, check that it is still safe to use, and if so, use it as quickly as possible.
