CHAPTER -3: USING YOUR FRIDGE FREEZER

Thermostat Setting

Freezer and refrigerator thermostat automatically regulates the inside temperature of the compartments. Rotate the
knob from position 1 to 5 to vary the temperature. set the thermostat a little higher during cold weather to decrease
energy consumption.
Thermostat level
1 – 2 : Set the knob between minimum and medium position for short-
term food storage of food in the freezer compartment.
3 – 4 : For long-term food storage of food in the freezer compartment,
set knob to the medium position.
5 – MAX : For freezing fresh food. The appliance will need to work longer.
After reaching cooling level you need,the thermostat setting
should be turned to medium set value

Warnings about temperature adjustments

• Temperature adjustments should be made according to the frequency the door is opened and the quantity of
food kept inside the fridge.
• This fridge is designed to work in all ambient temperatures. If the ambient temperature is colder than -5 °C,
preserving food in the refrigerator compartment is not suggested because the foods that you put in the refrigerator
compartment will have a temperature close that is too close to the ambient temperature. Consequently,
they will freeze. You can keep your foods in your refrigerator compartment up to -5 °C. Thanks to its special
algorithm,appliance will keep your food in low ambient conditions(colder than -5°C) without any problem occuring
• Do not pass to another adjustment before completing an adjustment.
• To be completely cooled, your fridge freezer should be run continuously for up to 24 hours depending on the
ambient temperature after being plugged. Keep the doors to your fridge closed as much as possible during this
time and only keep a minimal amount of food in it.
• If the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must wait at
least 5 minutes before restarting or plugging the unit in
again in order not to damage the compressor.
• Your fridge is designed to operate in the ambient temperature
intervals stated in the standards, according to the climate
class stated in the information label. It is not recommended
that fridge freezer should not be operated outside of specified
temperature interval in terms of cooling efficiency.
Note:
This appliance is designed to work at 43 °C ambient temperature. Below -5 °C ambient temperature, do not use
refrigerator compartment. When you place your foods into refrigerator compartment, they will freeze. You can continue
using freezer compartment.

Temperature indicator

In order to help you better set your refrigerator, we have equipped it with 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" appears in black, it will be difficult to see this indication if the temperature indicator is badly lit. To
be able to see this indication properly, there should be enough light.
Each time the temperature setting device is changed, wait for the stabilisation of the temperature inside the appliance
before proceeding, if necessary, with a new temperature setting. Please change the position of the temperature setting
device progressively and wait at least 12 hours before starting a new check and 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), set the temperature setting device to a lower position until compressor off
periods are obtained again.
Putting food in the coldest area of the refrigerator
Your foods will be better stored if you put them in the most appropriate cooling area. The coldest area
is just above the crisper.
The following symbol indicates the coldest area of your refrigerator.
To ensure a low temperature in this area, make sure the shelf is located at
the the same level as this symbol, as shown in the illustration.
The upper limit of the coldest area is indicated by the lower side of the sticker (head of
the arrow). The coldest area upper shelf must be at the same level with the arrow head.
The coldest area is below this level.
As these shelves are removable, make sure they are always at the same level with these
zone limits described on the stickers, in order to guarantee temperatures in this area.
