ControLLing thE tEMPEraturE
Controlling the Freezer temperature
The freezer temperature can be set between -14°C (8°F) and -25º\
C (-14°F) to suit your particular 
needs. Press the Temp. button repeatedly until the desired temperature is shown in the 
temperature display. Keep in mind that foods like ice cream may melt at \
-16ºC (4°F).
The temperature display will move sequentially from -14°C (8°F) \
and -25ºC (-14°F). When the 
display reaches -14ºC (8°F), it will begin again at -25ºC (-14°F).
Five seconds after the new temperature is set the display will again sho\
w the actual current 
freezer temperature. However, this number will change as the Freezer adj\
usts to the new 
temperature.
Controlling the Fridge temperature
The refrigerator temperature can be set between 7ºC (46°F) and 1\
ºC (34°F) to suit your particular 
needs. Press the Temp. button repeatedly until the desired temperature is shown in the 
temperature display.
The temperature control process for the Fridge works just like the Freez\
er process.
Press the Temp. button to set your desired temperature. After a few seconds, the Fridge\
 will 
begin tracking towards the newly set temperature. This will be reflect\
ed in the digital display.
The temperature of the freezer or the refrigerator may rise from opening\
 the doors too 
frequently, or if a large amount of warm or hot food is placed in either\
 side. 
This may cause the digital display to blink. Once the freezer and refrig\
erator return to their 
normal set temperatures the blinking will stop.
If the blinking continues, you may need to “reset” the refrigerato\
r. Try unplugging the 
appliance, wait about 10 minutes and then plug back in.
