Temperature display
During normal operation the
temperature display on the control
panel shows the temperature in the
warmest part of the appliance. The
temperature display will be working
even when the appliance is switched
off.
The temperature display can only show
temperatures which are below 0 °C.
This means that when the freezer is
switched on no exact value will be
displayed until the appliance has
cooled down to 0 °C and below.
If you have adjusted the temperature
dial in order to set a different
temperature, wait for approx. 6 hours
if the freezer is not very full and for
approx. 24 hours if the freezer is full
before checking the temperature
display. It will take this long for the
display to show the accurate
temperature of the freezer. If the
temperature displayed is too low or too
high, then adjust the temperature once
more.
A temperature above -18 °C is no
cause for concern in the following
circumstances:
–
when the appliance has just been
switched on,
–
when the door has been left open for
a while, e.g. for removing or storing a
large amount of food,
–
when fresh food is being frozen.
However, if the temperature remains
above -18 °C for a long time, check that
the frozen food has not started to
defrost. If it has started thawing, check
that it is safe to use and if it is, use it as
quickly as possible.
