Display controls

All functions and controls of the unit are accessible from a control panel conveniently located on the door of the refrigerator. A keypad of touch buttons and a digital display allow easy configuration of features and settings in a simple and intuitive manner.

Important! Touch buttons require only a short press on a button to operate. The operation occurs when releasing your finger from the button, not while the button is pressed. There is no need for applying pressure on the keypad.

Only some functions related to the "Holiday" and "Alarm" buttons require a long touch of at least 3 sec. Please refer to those related sections of this Manual for detailed instructions.

The control panel consists of two indicating temperature areas, five icons representing different modes and six touch buttons. When the appliance is powered on for the first time, the backlight of the icons on display panel turns on. If no buttons have been pressed and the doors remains closed, the backlight will turn off after 60 sec.

Hints for fresh food refrigeration

• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator or freezer, the internal temperature will increase resulting in the compressor having to work harder and will consume more energy.
• Do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavor.
• Place food properly so that air can circulate freely around it.

Hints for refrigeration

• Meat (All Types) Wrap in polythene food: wrap and place on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer. Always follow food storage times and use by dates suggested by manufacturers.

Hints for freezing

• When first starting-up or after a period out of use, let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the higher settings before putting food in the compartment.
• Prepare food in small portions to enable it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible to subsequently thaw only the quantity required.
• Wrap up the food in aluminum foil or polyethylene food wraps which are airtight.
• Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch the food which is already frozen to avoid temperature rise of the latter.
• Iced products, if consumed immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, will probably cause frost burns to the skin.
• It is recommended to label and date each frozen package in order to keep track of the storage time.

Hints for the storage of frozen food

• Ensure that frozen food has been stored correctly by the food retailer
