What the display shows during normal operation:
Controlling the Temperature of the Fridge or the Freezer Compartment
Use the Compartment Select button to choose either the fridge compartment or the freezer
compartment.
Press the Temp Change button to select a different temperature for the compartment. The
temperature will decrease, getting 1˚C colder for each press of the button, until the required
setting is reached or the coldest possible setting is reached (2˚C for the fridge compartment
and -25˚C for the freezer compartment).
Once the coldest possible setting is reached, pressing the Temp Change button again will
return the temperature selection to the maximum setting (6˚C for the fridge compartment
and -18˚C for the freezer compartment).
Note: The display light will come on when you press any button and it will stay on for 12
seconds.
Temperature Indicator (not applicable to all models)
The temperature indicator is located on the bottom right hand side of the fridge
compartment wall.
This indicator shows when the fridge compartment of your fridge freezer is
operating at the correct temperature.
After plugging in and switching on PLEASE WAIT 24 HOURS for the fridge compartment temperature
to stabilise. After this time the indicator should clearly show OK and that indicates the fridge
compartment is operating at the correct temperature.
If the indicator is completely black, the compartment temperature is too high and you should adjust
the temperature to a colder setting (see above).
If you have to adjust the temperature setting please WAIT A MINIMUM OF 10 HOURS, this is time for
the temperature to stabilise, before checking that the indicator is showing OK.
If large quantities of food have been added or if the fridge compartment door has been opened
frequently it is normal for the temperature indicator not to show OK.WAIT A MINIMUM OF 10 HOURS
before adjusting the temperature to a colder setting.
