clockwise towards position 7.
Turn off: rotate the knob back to position
STOP (0).

14
541519
SETTING THE TEMPERATURE
Higher settings (towards 7) selected with
the knob correspond to lower (cooler)
temperatures. The temperature in the
refrigerator interior may drop below 0°C.
Only use higher settings when a lower
temperature is desired and recommended
or when environment temperature is
lower than 16°C. When the environment
temperature is normal, a medium setting is
recommended.
• We recommend setting the temperature to
+4 °C, as this will preserve the quality and
freshness of food longer.
• A change in the environment temperature
aects the temperature in the appliance.
Hence, the thermostat setting should be
adjusted accordingly.
• When the thermostat knob is set to
position STOP (0), the appliance will not
operate (cooling system is o); however,
the appliance is still powered (a light
will illuminate the interior when the
refrigerator door is opened).

DEFROSTING THE APPLIANCE
541519
AUTOMATIC REFRIGERATOR DEFROSTING
Refrigerator does not need defrosting because the ice on the back interior wall is thawed
automatically.
Any accumulated ice will melt when the compressor unit is inactive. The droplets are
collected in a groove/gutter, drained trough a hole, and discharged into a tray in the
bottom of the appliance base.
If an excessive layer of ice is formed on the rear wall of refrigerator interior (3-5 mm),
switch off the appliance and defrost the appliance manually.
In this case, it is also advisable to empty the condensate tray on the bottom of the
appliance.
- Remove the cabinet kickplate.
- Reach into the openings on the
switchboard and release the latch.
- Pull the plate towards you and remove it.
- Remove the condensate tray and empty
it.
