When you press the buttons, you will
see the following changes in the
display:
– When first pressed: The
last
temperature selected flashes.
– Each subsequent press of the
button: adjusts the temperature in
increments of 1 °C / 1 F.
– Holding down the button will
continue to adjust the temperature.
Approximately 5 seconds after you
release the button, the current
actual
temperature of the refrigerator or
freezer will automatically be shown.
If you have changed the temperature,
you will need to wait approx. 6 hours if
the appliance is not very full, or approx.
24 hours if it is full, before checking the
temperature display again, because it
will take this long for the display to
show an accurate temperature. If, after
this amount of time, the temperature is
too high or too low, you will need to
adjust it again.
Temperature range
The temperature can be selected from
within the following ranges:
– in the refrigerator section from 2 °C
to 11 °C (36 to 52 F)
– in the freezer section from -14 °C to
-26°C (8 to -15 F)
The room temperature and the
installation location can affect the time it
takes for the appliance to drop to the
coldest temperature. If the room
temperature is too high, it may not be
possible for the appliance to reach the
lowest temperature.
Temperature displays
During normal operation, the
temperature display shows the
temperature in the middle of the
refrigerator section and the temperature
in the warmest part of the freezer
section.
If the temperature in the appliance is
not within the range that the appliance
is able to display, (below 0 °C (32 F) for
the refrigerator section; above 0 °C
(32 F) for the freezer), you will see
flashing bars in the temperature
displays.
The
temperature displays flash
under
the following conditions:
– whenever a different temperature is
being set,
– whenever the temperature in the
appliance has risen by several
degrees, indicating that the
appliance is warming up too much.
This short-term loss of cooling is no
cause for concern in the following
cases:
– when the door has been left open for
a while, for example to take out or
put in a large amount of food,
– when fresh food is being frozen.
