If you have adjusted the temperature,
wait for approx. 6 hours if the freezer
is not very full
and
for approx. 24
hours if the freezer is full
before
checking the temperature display as it
will take this long for the display to
show the accurate temperature of the
freezer. If the temperature displayed is
too low or too high, then adjust the tem-
perature once more.
Temperature range
The temperature can be adjusted from
-14 °C to
-28 °C.
The ambient temperature of the room
and installation location can affect the
time it takes to reach the lowest temper-
ature. If the ambient temperature is too
high, then the appliance may not be
able to reach the lowest temperature.
Temperature display
During normal operation the tempera-
ture display on the control panel shows
the average temperature in the freezer.
If the temperature is above 0 °C, only
bars will show in the temperature dis-
play.
The
temperature display flashes
, if
– a different temperature is being set,
– the temperature in the appliance has
risen by several degrees, indicating
that the appliance is warming up too
much.
This loss of coldness is no cause for
concern in the following circumstances:
– when the lid has been left open for a
while, e.g. for removing or storing a
large amount of food,
– freezing fresh food.
As soon as the temperature sinks to
approx. -14 °C the temperature display
lights up again.
However, if the temperature remains
above -18 °C for a long time, check that
the frozen food has not started to de-
frost. Check that it is safe to use and if it
is, then use it as soon as possible.
