Temperature regulation
To operate the appliance, proceed as follows:
1. Set the required temperature by pressing the corresponding temperature regulator. The
temperature indicator will immediately show the changed setting (DESIRED tempera
-
ture) and the temperature indicator flashes.
2. Each time the temperature regulator is pressed the DESIRED temperature is adjusted
by 1 °C. The DESIRED temperature must be reached within 24 hours.
3. Once the required temperature has been set, after a short period (approx. 5 sec.) the
temperature indicator will show again the current ACTUAL temperature inside the cor
-
responding compartment. The temperature indicator will change from flashing to con
-
tinuous illumination.
For a correct storage of the food the following temperature should be set:
• -18 °C in the freezer.
The following DESIRED temperature settings are possible:
Operating mode "Freezing": from -15 °C up to -24 °C in 1 °C steps
Operation mode "Cooling": from 0 °C up to 16 °C in 1 °C steps;
When the setting is changed, the compressor does not start immediately if automatic
defrosting is currently taking place. As the storage temperature within the appliance is
reached quickly you can store food immediately after switching on.
"Freezing" or "Cooling" Function
If necessary, switch over the appliance between the operating modes "Freezing" and "Cool
-
ing".
To activate the function, do these steps:
1. Press the FROSTMATIC switch and the temperature regulator (warmest) simultaneously
for 5 seconds.
When the setting is switched from “Freezing” to “Cooling” FC (Freezing - Cooling) appears
in the temperature indicator, an acoustic signal confirms the change and the temperature
indicator changes to flashing figures (DESIRED temperature cooling mode +5 °C). Using
the temperature regulators, the required temperature for the cooling mode can now be
entered.
When the setting is switched from “Cooling” to “Freezing” CF (Cooling - Freezing) appears
in the temperature indicator, an acoustic signal confirms the change and the temperature
indicator changes to flashing figures (DESIRED temperature freezing mode -18 °C). Using
the temperature regulators, the required temperature for the freezing mode can now be
entered.
The operation mode, in which your appliance is at the moment, is identifiable if the tem
-
peratures can be set above or below 0 °C.
Set the temperature depending on the selected operation mode (see the section "Temper
-
ature regulation ") .
If you are using the appliance as a freezing unit, wait to add the food to be frozen, until
the interior temperature has attained -18 °C.
