Temperature control

The temperature inside the freezer is regulated by a

Position Ç-16¡CÈ = minimum cold
Position Ç-24¡CÈ = maximum cold
Turn the thermostat

to the required

position.
An intermediate position (-18¡C) is usually the most
suitable, although the temperature will be affected
by:
¥ Room temperature
¥ How often the door is opened

Warning light (red)

If the temperature warning light (5) lights up, it
indicates that the temperature within the freezer has
reached a level where safe food storage is no longer
ensured (warmer than -12¡C).

light will stay on until the temperature has dropped to
a safe level for the storage of frozen food.
