Temperature control

The temperature inside the freezer is regulated by a
thermostat with different temperature positions and
one «OFF» (

■

) position.

Position «min» = minimum cold
Position «max» = maximum cold
Turn the thermostat dial to the required position.
An intermediate position is usually the most suitable,
although the temperature will be affected by:

l

Room temperature

l

How often the door is opened

l

How much food is stored

l

Position of the appliance

In determining the correct temperature control setting
all these factors have to be considered and some
experimentation may be necessary.
