• The two compartment temperatures are accurately and independently controlled and do not change with the
temperature or humidity of the surroundings; whether summer or winter.
• If you wish to alter the temperature of either the fresh food compartment or freezer compartment, this can be
easily done by using the internal control panel located at the front right of the refrigerator compartment.
