TEMPERATURE SETTING

Table 1 shows the basic operation method. Perform key operations in the sequence indicated in the table. The example in the table is based on the assumption that the freezer temperature is -20oC.

Note: The unit is set at the factory that the chamber temperature -30oC.

Note:

The setting mode returns to the temperature display mode automatically when 90 seconds has passed without any key operation. In this case, any setting before pressing the set key (SET) is not memorized.

The freezer temperature can be set in the range between -18 and -35oC. Remember that the guaranteed temperature with no load at an ambient temperature of 35oC is -30oC

KEY LOCK FUNCTION

This unit is provided with the key lock function. When the key lock is ON, change of temperature setting through the key pad is not available. The key lock is set in OFF at the factory.
