The operating temperature is controlled by the thermostat
knob. Settings may be made from MIN to MAX - the coldest.
When the appliance is switched on for the first time, the
thermostat should be adjusted so that after 24 hours, the average
fridge temperature is no higher than +5∞C (+41∞F).
Do this by setting the thermostat half way between the
minimum and maximum setting and monitor to obtain the desired
temperature. Some sections of the fridge may be cooler or
warmer (such as the salad crisper and the top part of the cabinet)
which is quite normal.
The normal storage temperature of the freezer should be -18∞C
(0∞F). Lower temperatures may be obtained by adjusting
thermostat knob towards MAX position.
We recommend you set the thermostat as
explained below and monitor to obtain the desired
temperature. E.g. towards max. you will obtain a
colder fridge temperature and vice versa.
We recommend that you monitor the temperature you
use an accurate thermometer to ensure that the storage
compartments are kept to the desired temperature. Remember
you must take your reading very quickly since the thermometer
temperature will rise very rapidly after you remove it from the
freezer. Please remember each time the door is opened cold air
escapes and the internal temperature rises. Therefore never leave
the door open and ensure it is closed immediately after food is
put in or removed.
In case of a temporary ice build up in the fridge compartment,
reduce the thermostat setting to minimum, monitoring at the same
time that the fridge temperature is maximum +5 degrees C
[41 degrees F]. Once the ice build up disappears and the appliance
starts auto defrosting again as normal, then you may increase the
thermostat setting, if required.
