RL THE COLDEST PART OF THE REFRIGERATOR The symbol indicates the location of the coldest part of your refrigerator. This area is in between the vegetable compartment at the bottom and the symbol at the top, or the shelf at the same height. In order to maintain the temperature in this area, make sure not to change the position of this shelf. In forced air refrigerators (equipped with a fan or No Frost models), the coldest area symbol is not shown because the temperature is uniform throughout the interior.

INSTALLING THE TEMPERATURE INDICATOR

To help you adjust your refrigerator correctly, it is equipped with a temperature indicator that you can use to control the average temperature in the coldest area.

WARNING : This indicator is only intended for use in your refrigerator. Do not

use it in another refrigerator (as the coldest area will not be the same) or for any other purpose. TEMPERATURE INDICATOR : THE COLDEST PART OF YOUR REFRIGERATOR

CHECKING THE TEMPERATURE IN THE COLDEST AREA Using the temperature indicator, vou should regularly check that the temperature is correct in the coldest part of your refrigerator. The temperature inside your refrigerator depends on a number of factors, such as the outside room temperature, how full your refrigerator is, and how often you open the door. Take these factors into consideration when adjusting your appliance. When the indicator shows "OK", it means your thermostat is set properly and the temperature inside your refrigerator is correct. If the indicator is white it means the temperature is too high, so vou should increase the thermostat setting and wait for 12 hours before checking the indicator again. After loading the refrigerator or opening the door, the indicator may turn white for a few seconds. Correct setting Temperature too high, adjust the thermostat
