5Using your cooler/freezer
Setting the operating temperature
The operating temperature is regulated
by the temperature control.
1 = Lowest cooling setting
(Warmest setting)
5 = Highest cooling setting
(Coldest setting)
(Or)
Min. = Lowest cooling setting
(Warmest setting)
Max. = Highest cooling setting
(Coldest setting)
The average temperature inside the
fridge should be around +5°C.
Please choose the setting according
to the desired temperature.
Please note that there will be different
temperatures in the cooling area.
The coldest region is immediately
above the vegetable compartment.
The interior temperature also depends
on ambient temperature, the frequency
with which the door is opened and the
amount of foods kept inside.
Frequently opening the door causes
the interior temperature to rise.
For this reason, it is recommended
to close the door again as soon as
possible after use.
Using interior compartments

the shelves can be adjusted when
necessary.
Vegetable drawer: Vegetables and
fruits can be stored in this compartment
for long periods without decaying.
