Setting
the temperature
Refrigerator compartment
Turn temperature controller, Fig. 1/5, to
the required setting.
We recommend a medium setting
(of e.g. 2–3).
Higher settings lower the temperature in
the refrigerator compartment.
Select a higher setting (e.g. 4–5) only
temporarily if:
■
the ambient temperature is high,
■ door is opened frequently,
■ large quantities of food are placed in
the refrigerator compartment.
Freezer compartment
The temperature can be set from -16 °C
to -24 °C.
Keep pressing temperature selection
button 4 until the required freezer
compartment temperature is set. The
value last selected is stored.
The set temperature is indicated on
display 2.
We recommend a factory setting of
-18 °C in the freezer compartment.
Alarm function
In the following cases an alarm may be
actuated:
Door alarm
The door alarm switches on
if the refrigerator compartment door
is left open for longer than one minute.
Close the door to switch off the warning
signal.
Temperature alarm
The temperature alarm switches on if
the freezer compartment is too warm
and the frozen food is at risk of thawing.
The temperature display for the freezer
compartment 2 or the super display 3
flash.
Note
Do not refreeze thawing or thawed food.
It can only be refrozen when it has been
used to prepare a ready meal (boiled
or fried).
No longer store the frozen produce for
the max. storage period.
The alarm may switch on without any risk
to the frozen food:
■ when the appliance is switched on,
■ when large quantities of fresh food are
placed in the appliance,
