Controlling the Temperature of the Freezer Compartment
The control wheel on the front of the worktop adjusts the internal freezer
temperature. Your food should be maintained at -18˚C or colder for long term
storage.
The setting of the control wheel will depend on the location of the freezer, the room
temperature and how often the door is 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
6
You can check the temperature of the freezer compartment 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.
Your freezer must NOT be placed in a room where the temperature goes below 2˚C or
above 38˚C for prolonged periods, as the internal freezer temperature will not be
maintained.
