TEMPERATURE REGULATION
The temperature in the refrigerator compartment is controlled using the thermostat knob 3 ( fig. 1 ) by
turning it to one side or the other. The temperature indication in digits is shown beside the thermostat
knob. When the appliance door is closed, the thermostat position is seen on the thermostat position
indicator
4
(
fig. 1
).
The temperature is regulated on the scale of five digits.
0
= Compressor is switched off.
WARNING! Electric current is not switched off.
1 = highest temperature (lowest cooling)
5
= lowest temperature (highest cooling)
If food products in the refrigerator compartment are too cold, set the thermostat knob to 1 , 2 or 3 . If
food products in the refrigerator compartment are not being chilled sufficiently, set the thermostat
knob to 4 or 5 .
!
Please set the desired temperature in the appliance according to your own requirements.
! THE TEMPERATURE IN THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT MAY VARY DEPENDING ON AMBIENT
TEMPERATURE, THE AMOUNT OF FOODSTUFFS, THE TEMPERATURE OF THE FOODSTUFFS, AND
HOW OFTEN THE APPLIANCE DOOR IS OPENED AND CLOSED.
Therefore we recommend:
� locate the appliance away from heat sources,
� food placed in the appliance should not be warmer than the room temperature,
� appliance door must not to be left open,
� the appliance door should not be open longer than it is necessary to take out or put in foodstuffs.
! IF THE ROOM IS COOL, THE APPLIANCE COOLS LESS. THE TEMPERATURE IN THE APPLIANCE MAY
THEREFORE RISE. Use the thermostat wheel to set a lower temperature.
DEFROSTING OF THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT
The refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically. Drops of ice that form on the back wall of the
refrigeration compartment thaw during the time the compressor is not working and the thaw water
runs down the thaw water runoff channel to the tray on top of the compressor , where it evaporates.
FREEZING OF FOOD STUFFS IN THE FREEZER COMPARTMENT
In the freezer compartment, the fast-freeze section is marked with the symbol
Fresh foodstuffs prepared for freezing should be placed in one or two layers in the fast-freeze section.
The thermostat knob should be set to 5 . After 24 hours, the frozen food products should be replaces
from the quick-freeze section to the storage section drawer(s). When the products are frozen, the
thermostat wheel should be set at its earlier position.
� DO NOT EXCEED THE INDICATED MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF FOOD FOR FREEZING: FOR MODELS

PER 24 HOURS, FOR MODELS
RF270, 270L
AND

, IT IS 5 KG PER 24 HOURS.
� Leave a gap of not less than 3 cm between the foodstuffs being frozen and the upper partition
(
fig. 10
).
� Do not place unwrapped foodstuffs in the freezer sections.
� Fresh food for freezing should not touch already frozen foodstuffs.
�
Do not freeze foodstuffs that are warmer than the room temperature.
� Do not freeze liquid foodstuffs in glass vessels or bottles. Do not freeze carbonated beverages.
