Your Fridge-Freezer’s thermostats automatically regulate the
inside temperature of the compartments. By rotating either knob
from position 1 to position 5, colder temperatures can be obtained
for the respective compartment. This is particularly important for
food stored in the freezer.
Refrigerator Thermostat setting :
1-2
: Use this setting for short-
term storage of food in the fridge
– mild coldness.
3-4
: Use this
setting for longer storage of food
in the fridge – mid coldness.
5
:
Use this setting to get the coldest
possible temperature.
On setting ‘5’,
your fridge will work harder to maintain
this low temperature so after you reach
this temperature, you should turn the
knob to a milder setting (depending on
long or short-term storage intentions).

REMINDER:
Allow
the unit time to settle after delivery. If your plug
and power socket are now behind the fridge and you still need to move the
unit into place, be especially careful:
Remember to leave a safe
distance between the back of the fridge and the wall.
You switch your Fridge-Freezer
OFF
by
turning both thermostat knobs to position ‘0’.
NOTE:
When you first switch on the appliance, allow 24 hours for
it to cool down to the desired temperature. During this time, DO
NOT open the door often or place a lot of food inside the unit.
WARNING!
If the appliance is switched off then switched back on
again after a short period, the compressor will start up again after
approximately half-an-hour.
This is part of the normal operation of the
appliance
.
