• For short-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set the knob between 1 and 3 position.
• For long-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set the knop to the 3-4 position.
Note that; the ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how often the door is opened, affects
the temperature in the refrigerator compartment. If required, change the temperature setting.
Warnings for temperature settings
• The ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how often the door is opened, affects the
temperature in the refrigerator compartment. If required,change the temperature setting.
• It is not recommended that you operate your fridge in environments colder than 10°C .
• The thermostat setting should be set by taking into consideration how often the fresh food and freezer doors
are opened and closed, how much food is stored in the refrigerator and the environment in which and the
positioning of the appliance.
• We recommend that when first using the fridge freezer it should be left running for 24 hours uninterrupted to
ensure it is completely cooled . Do not open the fridge doors, or put food inside for this period.
• Your fridge freezer has a 5 minute built in delay function, designed to prevent damage to the compressor. When
power is applied to your fridge freezer, it will begin to operate normally after 5 minutes.
• Your fridge is designed to operate in the ambient
temperature intervals stated in the standards, according
to the climate class stated in the information label. It is
not recommended that your fridge is operated in the
environments which are out of the stated temperature
intervals in terms of cooling efficiency.
• This appliance is designed for use at an ambient tem-
perature within the 16°C - 38°C range.

Temperature indicator
In order to help you better set your refrigerator, we have equipped it with a temperature indicator located in
the coldest area.
To better store the food in your refrigerator, especially in the coldest area, make sure the message “OK”
appears on the temperature indicator. If « OK » does not appear, this means temperature has not been set
properly
It may be difficult to see the indicator, make sure it is properly lit.Each time the temperature setting device is
changed, wait for the stabilisation of the temperature inside the appliance before proceeding, if necessary,
with a new temperature setting. Please change the position of the temperature setting device progressively and wait at
least 12 hours before starting a new check and potential change.
NOTE: Following repeated openings (or prolonged opening) of the door or after putting fresh food into the appliance,
it is normal for the indication “OK” not to appear in the temperature setting indicator. If there is an abnormal build up
of ice crystals of ice crystals (bottom wall of the appliance) on the refrigerator compartment, evaporator (overloaded
appliance, high room temperature, frequent door openings), put the temperature setting device on a lower position until
compressor off periods are obtained again.
