Turning the Appliance ON and
OFF - Figure 1
Clean the appliance before turning it on for the first
time. See Cleaning.
Allow the appliance to operate approximately two
hours before placing food in it. DO NOT place
frozen food in the freezer until the temperature
shows at least 0°F (-18°C). The refrigerator and
freezer compartments can be operated separately.
Pressing the appliance main ON/OFF switch
(Fig. 1, 3) always turns the entire appliance, both
the BioFresh and the freezer compartment, ON or
OFF.
1. Turning ON:
Press the BioFresh ON/OFF button (Fig. 1, 9)
and the Freezer ON/OFF button (Fig. 1, 3),
the Temperature Displays (Fig. 1, 1) and
(Fig. 1, 7) light up or "flash".
• The interior light will turn ON when the
refrigerator door is open.
• The freezer compartment display will display
lines until a temperature less than 32°F (0°C) is
reached.
2. Turning OFF: Press the Refrigerator ON/OFF
button and the Freezer ON/OFF button for about
one second so the temperature displays go out.
If you only want to turn OFF the BioFresh
compartment, and leave the freezer
compartment ON, press ON/OFF button
(Fig. 1, 9). This is very useful during vacation
periods or when using the freezer only. The
BioFresh temperature display (Fig. 1, 7) and the
interior light will go out. The freezer temperature
(Fig. 1, 1) will display.
OPERATION
Setting the Temperature - Figure 1
The appliance is pre-set for normal operation. We
recommend temperatures of 34°F (+1 °C) in the
BioFresh compartment and 0°F (-18 °C) for the
freezer.
To reduce the temperature:
Press the (DOWN) button; (8) on left for BioFresh
compartment and (2) on right for the freezer
compartment.
To increase the temperature:
Press the (UP) to increase temperature
(Fig. A1, 2 or 8).
The temperature in the BioFresh compartment is
controlled automatically, between 32°F to 36°F (0°C
and 2°C). If you want a higher or lower temperature,
for example, for storing fish, you can alter the
temperature setting in the BioFresh compartment.
The setting range is displayed as between b1 and
b9. The default factory setting is b5.
The temperature can be changed by ± 5
increments, displayed in the temperature display.
Note
By decreasing the temperature, b4 to b1,
minus temperatures can be reached and the
food will freeze slightly.
For the freezer compartment, the setting range
is displayed between 8°F and -14°F (-13°C and -
26°C). Whether you can obtain the lowest freezer
temperature depends on where the appliance is
positioned (if it is located in an area with a high
ambient temperature it will not reach the lowest
temperature).
While you are entering the temperature, the set
temperature will flash on the display.
When you press the temperature setting buttons for
the first time, the most recent setting is displayed.
You can change the settings in increments by briefly
pressing the buttons again. If the buttons are held
down, the temperature setting will change faster.
Approximately five seconds after the button has
been released, the display will automatically show
the actual freezing or BioFresh temperature (known
as the “actual setting”).
The altered temperature will adjust slowly to the
new value.
