Temperature regulation
To operate the appliance, proceed as follows:
1. Set the required temperature by pressing the corresponding temperature regulator. The
temperature indicator will immediately show the changed setting (DESIRED tempera-
ture) and the temperature indicator flashes.
2. Each time the temperature regulator is pressed the DESIRED temperature is adjusted
by 1 °C. The DESIRED temperature must be reached within 24 hours.
3. Once the required temperature has been set, after a short period (approx. 5 sec.) the
temperature indicator will show again the current ACTUAL temperature inside the cor-
responding compartment. The temperature indicator will change from flashing to con-
tinuous illumination.
For a correct storage of the food the following temperature should be set:
•
-
18 °C in the freezer.
When the setting is changed, the compressor does not start immediately if automatic
defrosting is currently taking place. As the storage temperature within the fridge is reached
quickly you can store food immediately after switching on.
FROSTMATIC function
The FROSTMATIC function accelerates the freezing of fresh food and, at the same time,
protects foodstuffs already stored from undesirable warming.
To activate the function, do these steps:
1. Press the FROSTMATIC switch.
2. The FROSTMATIC indicator will light up.
To deactivate the function, do these steps:
1. Press the FROSTMATIC switch.
2. The FROSTMATIC indicator goes out.
The FROSTMATIC function stops automatically after about 52 hours.
If the FROSTMATIC function is switched on the temperature setting may not be changed.
High temperature alarm
An increase in the temperature in the freezer (for example due to an earlier power failure
or door is open) is indicated by:
• flashing of ALARM OFF light
• sounding of buzzer.
When normal conditions are restored:
• the acoustic signal shuts off
• ALARM OFF light continues to flash.
Stop the alarm light by pushing the ALARM OFF switch.
When the ALARM OFF switch is hold, the warmest temperature reached in the compartment
flashes on the temperature indicator.
Door open alarm
An acoustic alarm will sound when the door is left open for around 80 seconds.
When normal conditions are restored (door closed), the acoustic alarm will stop.
