by turning it to one ide or the other. The temperature indication in digit i hown be ide the
thermo tat knob. The temperature i regulated on the cale:
0 = Compre or i witched off. WARNING! Electric current is n t switched ff.
1 = highe t temperature (lowe t cooling)
7 = lowe t temperature (highe t cooling)
If food product in the refrigerator compartment are too cold, et the thermo tat knob to 1, 2 or
3. If food product in the refrigerator compartment are not being chilled ufficiently, et the
thermo tat knob to 4 or 5 - 7.
Plea e et the de ired temperature in the appliance according to your own requirement !
THE TEMPERATURE IN THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT MAY VARY DEPENDING ON
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE, THE AMOUNT OF FOODSTUFFS, THE TEMPERATURE OF THE
FOODSTUFFS, AND HOW OFTEN THE APPLIANCE DOOR IS OPENED AND CLOSED.
Therefore we recommend:
•locate the appliance away from heat ource ,
•food placed in the appliance hould not be warmer than the room temperature,
•appliance door mu t not to be left open,
•the appliance door hould not be open longer than it i nece ary to take out or put in food tuff .
IF THE ROOM IS COOL, THE APPLIANCE COOLS LESS. THE TEMPERATURE IN THE APPLIANCE
MAY THEREFORE RISE. U e the thermo tat wheel to et a lower temperature.
