A Temperature setting and on/off knob
B Super Freeze switch
Turn on: rotate the thermostat knob clockwise towards position 7.
Turn off: rotate the knob back to position STOP (0).
Setting the temperature
• Higher settings (towards 7) selected with the knob
correspond to lower (cooler) temperatures. The temperature
in the refrigerator interior may drop below 0°C. Only use
higher settings when a lower temperature is desired and
recommended or when environment temperature is lower than
16°C. When the environment temperature is normal, a medium
setting is recommended.
• A change in the environment temperature affects the
temperature in the appliance. Hence, the thermostat setting
should be adjusted accordingly.
• When the thermostat knob is set to position STOP (0), the
appliance will not operate (cooling system is off); however,
the appliance is still powered (a light will illuminate the interior
when the refrigerator door is opened).
