Display Information and Malfunction Messages
An integrated control system provides
information through light signals or text
messages visualized on the display. Problems
that cannot be solved by the user are reported
through a fault code. Some messages or alarms
frequently appear for particular conditions of
use or during start-up. In these cases, deactivate
the audible alarm by touching the Alarm button
and leave the appliance running, and limit
the opening of the doors for about 10-12 hours.
A list of malfunction messages is located at the
end of this manual.
If a malfunction message continues after repeated
attempts, contact Hestan Customer Care.
Padlock icon
The padlock icon shows up when the
temperatures are set up. The icon shows
that it is or is not possible to modify the
compartment's temperatures anymore.
Usually an open yellow padlock means you can
scroll up or down with a finger on the display to
select the desired temperature and touch OK for
confirming.
Whereas a closed padlock can be seen if the
user has activated some functions (described
later) that modify the settings of the Fridge,
ExtendFresh and Freezer Compartment.
Therefore the user will not be able to change the
temperature of the compartments anymore.
If a special function is set (for example Holiday,
MaxCool, FreshSelect™, etc.), the yellow
padlock will be seen closed and it will not be
possible to change the temperature of the
compartments as long as the function is active,
or if it is manually deactivated.

MaxCool Mode - FreshSelect™
(KRW model)
This function lowers the refrigerator temperature
to 36°F [+2°C] for 12 hours, permitting more rapid
cooling of food that has just been placed inside.
The more quickly an item can be cooled or frozen,
the better it will be preserved.
This mode can also be effective at maintaining
compartment temperatures while entertaining,
when higher than average door and drawer
openings are anticipated.
This must be activated at least 24 hours before
inserting room temperature items into the freezer,
or several hours before placing into the freezer
previously frozen items which have been subject
to a slight temperature rise.
Once the 12 hours have expired, the function
deactivates automatically, returning to the
previously set temperature. It is possible to
program a delayed activation of 1-12 hours for the
function.
If a power outage occurs while this mode is active,
the unit will default to normal operation.
