SETTING THE TEMPERATURE
For Dial Thermostats
Your appliance may be controlled with a thermostat knob located inside the unit,
towards the right-hand corner. Turn the knob clockwise from the STOP (0) position
toward the higher numbers for colder temperatures.
• Higher settings on the knob (higher numbers) mean lower temperatures (colder)
in all compartments of the appliance. The temperature inside a refrigerator may
even drop below 32°F. Use higher thermostat settings only when required or recommended.
When the ambient temperature is normal, we recommend a medium setting.
• Changes of the ambient temperature affect temperature in the interior of the appliance, so keep
this in mind when choosing the setting of the thermostat knob.
• In STOP (0) position, the appliance does not operate (the cooling system is switched off), yet the
power supply is not interrupted (the light is on when you open the refrigerator door).
• The temperatures in the refrigerator and in the freezer compartment also depend on how often
you open the door.
NOTE: In all small refrigerators and freezers without interior fans, temperatures are coldest near the
bottom, and occasionally near the rear. Place contents accordingly.
• For optimum temperature performance, it is recommended that this unit be at least 30% full
during use. If you are only using this unit to store small loads, we recommend adding some
water bottles or freezer packs to ensure temperature stability.
For Digital Thermostats
If you find that it is necessary to change the
temperature setting for your digital-thermostat
controlled appliance, please refer to the following
instructions:
To see the SET POINT
Push and immediately release the SET key. The display will show the SET POINT value. Wait 5
seconds and the probe value will display again.
To Change the SET POINT
Push and hold the SET key for more than 3 seconds to change the set point value. The value of the
set point will be displayed, and the “snowflake” LED will start blinking.
To Change the SET VALUE
Push the UP or DOWN arrow to the desired setting. The new setting will be memorized after 15
seconds, provided no other keys are pushed.
NOTE: The minimum and maximum range of your thermostat is preset and locked by us, so it
cannot easily be accidentally moved between freezer and refrigerator temperatures. To reset
this range lock, either call us or find information on our website under the
Troubleshooting
section.
