The
red temperature warning light (3) comes on when:

– excessive amounts of fresh food are placed inside.
Starting up and temperature regulation
The temperature control knob can be used to set the required storage temperature, -18°C or colder.
The following effects are of significance in respect of the interior temperature:
– Ambient temperature;
– Quantity and temperature of the food stored;
– Frequency with which the door is opened and how long it is left open.
The following temperature settings can therefore only be considered as recommendations that may well
need to be adapted to suit your particular situation.
Setting “
O
” means:
refrigeration off.
Setting “1” means:
highest, warmest internal temperature
Setting “6” means:
lowest, coldest internal temperature
Recommended regulator setting:
3 to 4.
Press the ON/OFF switch. The green pilot light illuminates.
Turn the thermostat control knob to the desired setting with the aid of a coin. The compressor starts and
then runs automatically.
Additionally operate the fast-freeze switch. The yellow pilot light comes on, the audible warning switches

Warning system
The warning system comprises of an optical warning light (red) and an acoustic warning tone. The red
warning light and the warning tone signal an alarm
- if the appliance door is left open too long;
- if the temperature in the freezer compartment is too warm;
- a malfunction in the cooling system.
"Open Door" warning
The warning tone sounds if the door is left open for more than 60 seconds.
• You can switch off the warning tone by closing the door.
Temperature Warning
The red warning light illuminates and the warning tone sounds if the temperature in the freezer com-
partment is warmer than -12°C.
An increase in the temperature in the freezer compartment may be caused by
- frequent or extended opening of the door;
- storing large quantities of warm food;
- a high ambient temperature;
- a malfunction in the cooling system.
Switch off the warning tone by pressing the fast freeze button. The yellow fast freeze light illuminates.
The red warning light remains illuminated until the required temperature has been reached again.
After the storage temperature has been reached, press the fast freeze button again to switch off the fast
freeze function. The yellow light goes out.
Note: when the appliance is switched on for the first time, the warning light and the warning tone sig-
nal an alarm because the necessary storage temperature in the freezer compartment has not yet been
reached.
