Temperature display

The temperature display can indicate several pieces of information.

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

When  the  temperature  is  being  adjusted  a  flashing  display  indicates  the
fridge 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 appliances start.

3.

Press either the “C“ (+) or “E“ (-) button. The temperature display switches
over and the DESIRED temperature currently set flashes on the temperatu-
re display.

4.

Set the required temperature by pressing the “C“ (+) or “E“ (-) buttons (see
section "Temperature setting buttons"). The temperature display will imme-
diately show the changed setting. Each time the button is pressed the tem-
perature is adjusted by 1 °C.
From a food safety point of view +5 °C should be considered sufficiently
cold for storing food in the fridge.

5.

Once the required temperature has been set, after a short period (approx. 5
sec.)  the  temperature  display  will  change  and  again  indicate  the  current
ACTUAL temperature inside the fridge. The display will change from flashing
to continuous illumination.

Information!

When the setting is changed, the compressor does not start

immediately if automatic defrosting is currently taking place. As the stora-
ge  temperature  within  the  fridge  is  reached  quickly  you  can  store  food
immediately after switching on.

COOLMATIC 

The COOLMATIC function is suited for quick cooling of large quantities of
goods in the refrigerator.
