If you have adjusted the temperature,
wait for approx. 6 hours if the
appliance is not very full
and
for
approx. 24 hours if the appliance is
full
before checking the temperature
display as it will take this long for the
display to show the accurate
temperature of the appliance. If, after
this time, the temperature is still too
high or too low, you will need to adjust it
again.
Temperature range
Temperatures between -14 °C and
-28 °C can be selected.
The ambient temperature in the room
and the installation location can affect
the time it takes for the appliance to
reach the lowest temperature. If the
ambient temperature is too high, the
appliance may not reach the lowest
temperature.
Temperature display
During normal operation, the
temperature display on the control
panel shows the temperature in the
warmest part of the appliance.
If the temperature in the appliance is
not within the range that the appliance
is able to display (i.e. if it is not lower
than 0 °C), only one bar will light up in
the temperature display.
The
temperature display will flash
, if
– a different temperature is being set,
– the temperature has risen too much,
as a warning of a loss of coldness.
This loss of coldness is no cause for
concern in the following circumstances:
– when the door has been left open for
a while, e.g. for removing or storing a
large amount of food,
– when fresh food is being frozen.
As soon as the temperature has fallen
to approx. -10 °C, the temperature
display ceases to flash and lights up
constantly.
However, if the temperature remains
above -18 °C for a long time, check that
the frozen food has not started to
defrost. If it has, make sure that the
food is safe to use and, if it is, then use
it as soon as possible.
