TEMPERATURE CONTROL AND OTHER USEFUL TIPS

COLDEST ZONE INSIDE THE REFRIGERATOR

The symbol at the side indicates the coldest zone in the refrigerator.

The coldest zone usually goes from the glass shelf of the crisper drawer at the bottom of the refrigerator to the symbol or rack positioned at the same height.

To maintain the temperature in this zone, be careful not to change the position of the rack.

The coldest zone symbol is not indicated in refrigerators with forced air system, as the temperature is even throughout the entire refrigerator.

TEMPERATURE INDICATOR

For optimum temperature adjustment, the refrigerator is provided with a temperature indicator to allow you to control the average temperature in the coldest zone.

IMPORTANT: The indicator is designed to operate with this refrigerator only. Do not use it with any other refrigerator (the coldest zone is not the same) or for any other use.

If the refrigerator is provided with a storage compartment, the temperature indicator is located inside the compartment.

CHECKING THE TEMPERATURE IN THE COLDEST ZONE

•After the appliance has been switched on for at least 24 hours, you can carry out regular checks to ensure the temperature in the coldest zone is correct and, if necessary, adjust the thermostat as indicated in the user instructions (chapter "temperature adjustment").

The internal temperature of the refrigerator depends on various factors such as the ambient temperature of the room, the amount of food stored and how often the door is opened. These factors should be taken into account when setting the appliance.

To maintain the required temperature inside the appliance, and to preserve your food better, check that the indicator shows the message OK. If the message OK does not appear, this means that the desired temperature has not been reached; in this case, adjust the thermostat setting and wait for 12 hours before checking the indicator again.

When fresh food has been introduced or the door has been left open for some time, it is normal for the message OK on the indicator to fade.
