10EN - 12 - THE VARIOUS FUNCTION AND POSSIBILITIESCHAPTER 3. Thermostat setting The fridge freezer thermostat automatically regulates the inside temperature of the compartments. By rotating the knob from position 1 to 5, colder temperatures can be obtained. Important note: Do not try to rotate knob beyond position 1, it will stop your appliance from working. Freezer & fridge thermostat setting; 1 – 2 : For short-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set the knob between the minimum and medium position. 3 – 4 : For long-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set the knob to the medium position. 5 : For freezing fresh food. The appliance will work for longer. So, after the desired conditionisreached,returntheknobtotheprevioussetting. Thermostat knob Warnings about Temperature Adjustments

• Werecommendthatyoudonotoperateyourfridgeinenvironmentswheretheambient temperatureisbelow10°Cbecausethiswillreduceitsefciency.

• Temperature adjustments should be made according to the frequency of door openings and the quantity of food kept inside the fridge.

• Do not pass to another adjustment before completing an adjustment.

• Your fridge should be operated up to 24 hours according to the ambient temperature If Super Switch is available: a) Super freezing: If ambient temparature is more than 18 °C, This switch can be used as superfreeze switch. Super freeze switch should be used for freezing the fresh food or when the RED lamp on the head panel is ON. (RED lamp on the head panel becomes ON whenthereisinsufcientcooling). Theappliancewillworklongerwhenyouactivate this switch. So after you get the cold condition (or the Red lamp on the head panel is off) you must returntopreviousposition. At the ambient temperature more than 18 °C, if superfreezingfunctiondoesn’twanttobeused,it must always be set to OFF position. b) Low ambient performance: If ambient temparature is less than 18 °C, this switch can also be used as a low ambient switch for good low ambient performence.

Temperature indicator Inordertohelpyoubettersetyourrefrigerator,wehaveequippeditwith a temperature indicator located in the coldest area. To better store the food in your refrigerator, especially in the coldest area, make sure the message “OK” appears on the temperature indicator. If « OK » does not appear, this means that the temperature setting has not been done properly. Since“OK”appearsinblack,itwillbedifculttoseethisindicationifthe temperature indicator is badly lit. To be able to see this indication properly, there should be enough light.

Please change the position of the temperature setting deviceprogressivelyandwaitatleast12hoursbeforestartinganewcheckand potential change. NOTE: Following repeated openings (or prolonged opening) of the door or after putting fresh food into the appliance, it is normal for the indication “OK” not to appear in the temperature setting indicator. If there is an abnormal ice crystals build up (bottom wall of the appliance) on the refrigerator compartment evaporator (overloaded appliance, high room temperature, frequent door openings), put the temperature setting deviceonalowerpositionuntilcompressoroffperiodsareobtained again.
