inside the refrigerator compartment.
Thermostat Control
The freezer and fridge thermostats control the tempe-
rature inside the freezer and refrigerator respectively.
The Freezer Temperature Control
(Control panel )
The freezer temperature control, regulates the tempe-
rature within the freezer compartment. A change in the
control setting in the freezer compartment could affect
the temperature in the refrigerator compartment under
certain circumstances.
7 Maximum coldness
1 Minimum coldness
An intermediate position is usually the most suitable,
although the temperature will be affected by:
•
Room temperature
•
How often the door is opened
•
How much food is stored
•
Position of the appliance
In determining the correct temperature control setting
all these factors have to be considered and some
experimentation may be necessary.
When altering the temperature settings, allow 24 hours
for the temperature to stablise before making further
changes.
The Fridge Temperature Control
(Control panel )
The fridge temperature control regulates the tempera-
ture within the fridge compartment, by regulating the

suitable, although some experimentation may be
necessary to obtain the correct temperature.
