Operation Control
The freezer is controlled with the thermostat knob.
1. Red control light
2. Yellow control light
3. Thermostat knob
Mode of Operation
Continuous operation - the yellow light is on.
The cooling system operates continuously - the Super Function. This
mode is selected when you want to freeze large amounts of fresh foods
and in case you want to deep freeze already frozen foods.
Automatic operation - the yellow light is off.
The interior temperature is controlled by the thermostat which turns the
cooling system on and off.
The frequency of switching the cooling system on and off depends on:
- the thermostat knob position (thermostat setting),
- how often you open the door; and
- ambient temperature.
Temperature Selection
When the freezer operates automatically, the
interior temperature is controlled by the
thermostat.
The most suitable thermostat position is in the
middle between
max and min.
We recommend setting the thermostat on
positions towards
max only in case you want to
accelerate cooling, as for example before
loading smaller amounts of fresh foods or when the operation mode
shall correspond to the ambient temperature.
Thermostat settings towards
min help you save energy provided that
the freezer is loaded with smaller amount of frozen foods.
Changes of the ambient temperature affects temperature in the interior
of the appliance. Choose correct setting of the thermostat knob.
