GB OPERATION

Controlling temperatures
• FREEZER TEMP. CONTROL regulates the quantity of
cold air to the freezer.
• If the freezer does not cool even when setting FREEZER
TEMP. CONTROL to MAX, set REFRIGERATOR TEMP.
CONTROL to MAX as well.
• With FREEZER TEMP. CONTROL set to MAX, there will
be less cold air directed to the refrigerator compartment,
and the refrigerator compartment may not become cold
enough.
• REFRIGERATOR TEMP. CONTROL controls the
compressor running time of the refrigeration system.
• MAX setting will result in colder temperature in the both
(refrigerator and freezer) compartments.
• The freezer compartment may not cool sufficiently when
leaving REFRIGERATOR TEMP. CONTROL as MIN for
an extensive period. To cool the freezer compartment
properly, set REFRIGERATOR TEMP. CONTROL closer
to MAX.
Over 35°C ambient temperature
Under 10°C ambient temperature
Hints when making ice
1. Do not over fill the Ice cube trays;
otherwise the ice cubes will be
joined together when frozen.
2. When the ice cubes are made, turn
the lever clockwise to empty the
ice into the Ice cube box.
NOTE:
To prevent damage to the Ice cube box,
do not make ice in the Ice cube box or
pour oil into it.
Deodorizing unit
Deodorizing catalyst is installed on the routes of cold air.
No operation and cleaning are required.
Defrosting
Defrosting is fully automatic due to a unique energy saving
system.
Indicator of temperature
This refrigerator is provided with a indicator of temperature
in the refrigerator compartment to allow you to control the
average temperature in the coldest zone.

COLDEST ZONE

The symbol indicates the coldest zone in the
refrigerator compartment.
(The door pocket positioned at the same
height isn’t the coldest zone.)

CHECKING THE TEMPERATURE IN THE

COLDEST ZONE

You can carry out regular checks to ensure the
temperature in the coldest zone is correct and, if
necessary, adjust the refrigerator temp. control as
indicated in the chapter “Controlling Temperature”.
To maintain a correct temperature inside the appliance,
check that the indicator of temperature is always BLUE.
If the indicator of temperature turns WHITE, the
temperature is too high; in this case, increase the
refrigerator temp. control setting and wait for 6 hours
before checking the indicator of temperature again.
NOTE:
• The internal temperature of the refrigerator depends on
various factors such as the ambient temperature of the
room, the amount of food stored and the frequency of door
opening.
• When fresh food has been introduced or the door has been
left open for some time, it is normal for the indicator of
temperature to turn WHITE.
This is because MAX setting (FREEZER TEMP.
CONTROL) may result in too little air flow to the
refrigerator compartment, causing too warm temperature
in the refrigerator compartment.
If the foods in the refrigerator
compartment freeze.
This is because the compressor operation is too short in
winter, and not enough cold air is provided to the freezer
compartment.
