Temperature regulation

The temperature in the refrigerator compartment is controlled using the thermostat knob 2 (fig. 1) by turning it to
one side or the other. The temperature indication in digits is shown beside the thermostat knob.
The temperature is regulated on the scale of seven digits.
0 = Compressor is switched off. WARNING! Electric current is not switched off.
1 = highest temperature (lowest cooling)
7 = lowest temperature (highest cooling)
If food products in the refrigerator compartment are too cold, set the thermostat knob to 1, 2 or 3. If food
products in the refrigerator compartment are not being chilled sufficiently, set the thermostat knob to 4, 5 or 6.
! Please set the desired temperature in the appliance according to your own requirements.
! THE TEMPERATURE IN THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT MAY VARY DEPENDING ON
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE, THE AMOUNT OF FOODSTUFFS, THE TEMPERATURE OF THE
FOODSTUFFS, AND HOW OFTEN THE APPLIANCE DOOR IS OPENED AND CLOSED. Therefore we
recommend:
 locate the appliance away from heat sources,
 food placed in the appliance should not be warmer than the room temperature,
 appliance door must not to be left open,
 the appliance door should not be open longer than it is necessary to take out or put in foodstuffs.
! IF THE ROOM IS COOL, THE APPLIANCE COOLS LESS. THE TEMPERATURE IN THE APPLIANCE

Storage of foodstuffs in the refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator compartment is intended for the short-term storage of fresh foodstuffs.
 Do not put hot foodstuffs in the refrigerator compartment – they must be cooled down to room temperature.
 Strictly observe the foodstuff validity time indicated by the manufacturer on the product packaging.
Defrosting of the refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically. Drops of ice that form on the back wall of the refrigeration
compartment thaw during the time the compressor is not working and the thaw water runs down the thaw water
runoff channel to the tray 20 on top of the compressor 19 (Fig. 1), where it evaporates.
Freezing of food stuffs in the freezer compartment
In the freezer compartment, the fast-freeze section is marked with the symbol
Fresh foodstuffs prepared for freezing should be placed in one or two layers in the fast-freeze section. The
thermostat knob should be set to 7. After 24 hours, the frozen food products should be replaces from the quick-
freeze section to the storage section drawer(s) (Fig. 1). When the products are frozen, the thermostat wheel
should be set at its earlier position.
 DO NOT EXCEED THE INDICATED MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF FOOD FOR FREEZING FOR
MODELS:
KS 9897 /98 / 99 / 9770 it is 6 kg per 24 hours.
KS 9865 / 66 / 67 / 68 it is 7,5 kg per 24 hours.
KS 9870 / 71 it is 12 kg per 24 hours.
KS 9872 / 73 / 74 it is 8 kg per 24 hours.
 Leave a gap of not less than 3 cm between the foodstuffs being frozen and the upper partition.
 Do not place unwrapped foodstuffs in the freezer sections.
 Fresh food for freezing should not touch already frozen foodstuffs.
 Do not freeze foodstuffs that are warmer than the room temperature.
 Do not freeze liquid foodstuffs in glass vessels or bottles.
 Strictly observe the frozen food product validity dates indicated by the manufacturer on the product packaging.
