ACTUAL temperature means: 

The temperature display indicates the current temperature inside the freezer.
The ACTUAL temperature is indicated with illuminated numbers.

Temperature display

The temperature display can indicate several pieces of information.

During normal operation, the temperature currently present in the freezer
(ACTUAL temperature) is displayed. 

When  the  temperature  is  being  adjusted  a  flashing  display  indicates  the
freezer temperature currently set (DESIRED temperature). 

Starting Up - Setting the Temperature

1.

Plug the mains plug into the mains socket. 

2.

If the display is OFF, press ON/OFF button. The green mains pilot indicator
illuminates. The alarm light flashes and the buzzer sounds.

3.

Press the “I” button to stop the buzzer, the light  still flashes since the tem-
peratur is reached.

4.

Press either the “C“ or “E“ button. The temperature display switches over and
the DESIRED temperature currently set flashes on the temperature display.

5.

Set the required temperature by pressing the “C“ or “E“ buttons (see section
"Temperature  setting  buttons").  The  temperature  display  will  immediately
show the changed setting. Each time the button is pressed the temperatu-
re is adjusted by 1 °C.
From a food safety point of view -18 °C should be considered sufficiently
cold for storing food in the freezer.

Ice pack

There are two ice packs in one drawer of the freezer.
In the event of a power failure or malfunction, the ice pack will lengthen
the amount of time it takes for the frozen food to become too warm by
several hours. The ice pack can only fulfil this task optimally if it is placed in
the uppermost drawer, at the front, above the frozen food. You can use the
ice pack for cooling cold bags.

FROSTMATIC

The FROSTMATIC function accelerates the freezing of fresh food and, at the
same time, protects foodstuffs already stored from undesirable warming.

1.

The FROSTMATIC function is switched on by pressing the FROSTMATIC but-
ton. The yellow light illuminates.
If the FROSTMATIC function is not ended manually, the appliance electro-
