Controlling the Temperature of the Fridge Compartment
The control wheel on the front of the worktop adjusts the internal fridge
compartment temperature. The internal temperature should be 5˚C or colder,
although some sections such as the salad bin will be slightly warmer.
The setting of the control wheel will depend on the location of the appliance, the
room temperature and how often the doors are opened. The normal set point
(marked by a 3 and N on the dial) is usually suitable. If you need to adjust the
temperature turn the control wheel:
Clockwise (higher number) - Colder
Anti-clockwise (lower number) - Warmer
Controlling the Temperature of the Freezer Compartment
With a suitable fridge compartment temperature,the freezer compartment will
automatically be maintained at the correct temperature (below -18˚C).
You can check the temperature of the fridge freezer compartments by using a Fridge
Freezer Thermometer available from Hotpoint Genuine Parts and Accessories Mail
Order Hotline (see KEY CONTACTS back page).
WARNING: Do not use a mercury filled thermometer, as breakage would cause a
health hazard.
