Using your refrigerator

TEMPERATURE CONTROL
AND ADJUSTMENT
Operating temperatures are controlled
by the thermostat (seediagram).
Settings may be made from 1 to 5, the
coldest position.When the appliance
is switched on for the first time,
thethermostat should be adjusted
so that after 24 hours, theaverage
fridge temperature is no higher than
+5°C (+41°F ).We recommend you
set the thermostat halfway between
the 1 and 5 setting and monitorto
obtain the desired temperature i. e.
towards 5 you willobtain a colder
fridge temperature and vice versa.
Some sectionsof the fridge may be
cooler or warmer ( such as the salad
crisperand the top part of the cabinet
) which is quite normal.Over ambient
temperatures of 25°C (77°F) especially
insummer turn the thermostat
knob towards 5. Underambient
temperatures of 25°C (77°F) turn the
thermostat knobto a half way position.
Frequent door opening cause higher
internal temperatures, soclose the
door as soon as possible after use.
In case of a temporary ice build up
in the fridge compartment reduce
thethermostat setting to 1, monitoring
at the same time that the fridge
temperature ismaximum +5 degrees
C (41 degrees F). Once the ice build
up disappears and theappliance
starts auto defrosting again as normal,
then you may increase thethermostat
setting, if required.
