Electronic models
The electronic display
panel consists of an
LCD display with white
backlighting and 6 push
buttons. When the power
is first turned on, you will
see the default settings,
with the white backlighting
on.
If no buttons have been pressed and the fridge door is
closed the backlighting will turn off after 30 seconds.
Adjusting temperatures
The default temperature for the refrigerator is 3°C, with
a default of -18°C for the freezer. If you want to change
the temperatures, use the instructions below. You should
make only small adjustments and wait 24 hours to see
whether you need to make further changes.
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.
Changing the freezer temperature
Press the freezer button
to make the freezer colder
in 1°C steps. Once -23°C
is reached the display will
return to -14°C with the next
button press. You’ll notice
that the bar graph gets
smaller with colder freezer
settings.
Changing the refrigerator temperature
Press the fridge button to
make the fridge colder in
1°C steps. Once 0.0°C is
reached the display will
return to 7.0°C with the
next button press. The
bar graph gets smaller
with colder settings.
Note: Testing ice cream is a good way to test the freezer
temperature. Testing drinking water is a good way to
check the refrigerator compartment temperature.
Fast freeze function.
Use the fast freeze function
when you add a large
amount of food to the freezer
compartment. This freezes
the food quickly but does not
affect the temperature in the
refrigerator compartment.
To use this function, press the fast freeze button once. An
animated icon will light up. The fast freeze function will
now operate for 90 minutes. If you want to turn the fast
freeze function off before 90 minutes have passed, simply
press the fast freeze button again. The icon will disappear
and the refrigerator will return to normal operation.
Freezer temperature alarm.
If the alarm is sounding for
no apparent reason, check
whether anything is holding the
door open. Closing the door
resets the alarm for a further 2
minutes.
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 in the freezer (see page 4 & 5,
Parts of your refrigerator for the sensor location). A buzzer
will sound, the icon adjacent to the alarm reset button,
the freezer set temperature and bar graph will all flash
until the alarm reset button is pressed. Once pressed the
alarm disable icon adjacent to the alarm reset button will
illuminate for 50 minutes, or until the temperature reaches
an acceptable level.
Make sure nothing is holding the freezer door open and
move any warm food away from the temperature sensor.
See page 5 & 6 (Parts of your Refrigerator) for more
information.
If the freezer is still too warm after 50 minutes the alarm
will sound again, indicating that something may be wrong
with your refrigerator.
Note: The freezer temperature alarm can be reset for 12
hours by pressing the alarm reset button continuously for
10 seconds.
