Setting 0 means that the unit is in the off state. Turn the temperature control clockwise, starting from this set-
ting; the appliance will turn on automatically. The power levels 1 – 7 regulates the different values of the inter-
nal temperature. When opening the door, the interior light will turn on automatically.
Setting 0 off state
Setting 1 lowest setting (warmest inside temperature)
Setting 7 highest setting (coldest inside temperature)
Turning the temperature control clockwise will lower the inside temperature. Keep in mind that the tempera-
ture will change depending on the ambient temperature (of the location), the frequency of door opening and
the amount of food in the appliance.
During initial operation, turn the temperature control to the highest setting first, until the appliance has reached
the desired operating temperature. Afterwards it is recommended to turn the control back to a medium setting;
correcting the temperature at a later point would then be easier.

Defrosting Defrosting Defrosting Defrosting
The appliance has an automatic defrosting system. During defrosting the water drops drain off at the rear side
of the cooling chamber. The water running through a flume, is collected in a container underneath the com-
pressor, where it will evaporate. Make sure the water discharge opening does not get clogged. Clean it care-
fully with a pipe cleaner or knitting needle. A light formation of ice on the rear side during operation is normal.
