The electronic display panel consists of an LCD display 
with white backlighting. When the power is first turned on, 
the display, with backlighting, will activate.
If no buttons have been pressed and the fridge door is 
closed the backlighting will turn off after 30 seconds.

Controlling the temperature

We recommend that when you start your refrigerator for 
the first time, the temperature for the refrigerator is set to 
3°C and the freezer to -18°C. If you want to change the 
temperature, follow the instructions below. make only 
small adjustments and wait 24 hours to see if it’s correct. 
Checking the softness of ice cream is a good indication 
if your freezer is the right temperature, while feeling the 
coldness of water kept in the refrigerator is a good way  
of checking the temperature of the food compartment.

NOTE: When you set a temperature, you set an 
average temperature for the whole refrigerator cabinet. 
Temperatures inside each compartment may vary, 
depending on how much food you store and where you 
place it. High or low room temperature may also affect 
the actual temperature inside the refrigerator. 
If no button has been pressed for some time there 
may be a delay of up to 2 seconds before the display 
responds, this is normal and is a part of the display 
design to reduce the chance of accidental changes.

Changing the freezer temperature

Press the Select button until the freezer compartment 
is illuminated on the refrigerator icon. Use the arrows to 
the left and right of the display to select a higher or lower 
temperature in 1˚c steps. Once the maximum of -23 ˚c is 
reached, the display will return to -14 ˚c with the next press 
of the button.

ELECTRONIC DISPLaY CONTROLS

Changing the refrigerator temperature

Press the Select button until the food compartment is 
illuminated on the refrigerator icon. Use the arrows to 
the left and right of the display to select a higher or lower 
temperature in 1˚c steps. Once 0˚c is reached, the display 
will return to 7˚c with the next press of the button.

Boost function

Use the boost function when you add a large amount 

of food to the fridge compartment.  To use this function, 

press the modes button until Boost is illuminated. Boost 

function chills the food quickly but does not affect the 

temperature in the freezer compartment.
The boost function will operate for 90 minutes before 

automatically returning to normal operation. If you want 

to turn the boost  off before 90 minutes have passed, 

simply press the modes button again until the Boost 

icon disappears and the refrigerator will return to  
normal operation.

Freezer temperature alarm

If the alarm sounds for no apparent reason, check whether 
anything is keeping the door open. If the freezer becomes 
too warm due to the freezer door being left open or warm 
food being placed too close to the temperature sensor, a 
buzzer will sound.
If the freezer temperature alarm sounds, press any button 
to disable the alarm.
make sure nothing is holding the freezer door open and 
move any warm food away from the temperature sensor. If 
the freezer is still too warm after 50 minutes, the alarm will 
sound again, indicating that something may be wrong with 
the refrigerator.

NOTE: The freezer temperature alarm can be reset for 
12 hours by holding the alarm reset button continuously 
for 10 seconds.

Door alarm

If the fridge or freezer door is left open for more than two 
minutes, the alarm will buzz and an arrow pointing to an 
open door will flash, along with the temperature setting 
and bar graph. If you want to leave the door open while 
you load the refrigerator, you can turn the alarm off for 8 
minutes by pressing any button.
If the fridge door is left open for more than 30 minutes, the 
light will automatically turn off to save energy. To turn the 
light back on simply close and reopen the door again.
