You can make changes to the
temperature displays behind the door
by pressing the buttons as follows:
–
When first pressed, the last
temperature selected flashes.
–
Each subsequent press of the button
adjusts the temperature shown in
1 °C increments.
–
Holding the button in adjusts the
temperature continually.
Approx. 5 seconds after letting go of
the button, the current temperature of
the refrigerator or freezer section is
automatically shown.
If you have adjusted the temperature,
wait for approx. 6 hours if the
appliance is not very full and for
approx. 24 hours if the appliance is
full before checking the temperature
display as it will take this long for the
display to give an accurate reading. If,
after this time, the temperature is still too
high or too low, you will need to adjust it
again.
Temperature range
The temperature can be adjusted:
–
In the refrigerator section from 2 °C
to 11 °C
–
In the freezer section from -14 °C to
-28 °C
The ambient temperature in the room
and the installation location can affect
the time it takes for the appliance to
reach the lowest temperature. If the
ambient temperature is too high, the
appliance may not reach the lowest
temperature.
Temperature displays
During normal operation the
temperature displays on the control
panel show the temperature in the
middle of the refrigerator section and
the temperature in the warmest part of
the freezer section.
If the temperature in the appliance is
not within the range that the appliance
is able to display (above 0 °C in the
refrigerator section, and below 0 °C in
the freezer section), bars will flash in
the temperature displays.
The temperature displays flash if
– a different temperature is being set,
– the temperature in the appliance has
risen by several degrees, indicating
that the appliance is warming up too
much.
This loss of coldness is no cause for
concern in the following circumstances:
– when the door has been left open for
a while, e.g., for removing or loading
a large amount of food,
–
when fresh food is being frozen.
However, if the temperature in the
freezer section remains above -18 °C
for a long time, check that the frozen
food has not started to defrost. If food
has defrosted or started to defrost,
check that it is still safe to use, and if
so, use it as quickly as possible.
