Temperature regulation
The freezer is provided with the symbol which means that it is suitable for
freezing fresh food and for long term storage of frozen and deep-frozen food. The tem -
perature may be regulated between -15°C and -24°C. We suggest setting the internal
temperature of approximately -18°C, which guarantees proper freezing and conservation
of the frozen foods.
The temperature may be regulated by pressing the Temperature regulation button.
By pressing the Temperature regulation button the current temperature setting flashes on
the indicator and by pressing the button again it is possible to change it.
You confirm the choice of the temperature by pressing the Confirmation button. The tem -
perature indicator shows the set temperature.
The set temperature will be reached within 24 hours.
Fluctuations of some degrees around set temperature are normal and does not mean any
fault in the appliance.
After a long period out of use it is not necessary to set again the temperature because it
remains stored.
