Additional information on the temperature
• The temperature inside the appliance is influenced by many factors.
How you set the temperature control dial depends on the ambient
temperature, sun exposure, how often you open the door and the
amount of food stored. The middle setting of the dial is most optimal
in most cases.
• Do not put food into the fridge freezer before it has reached its oper-
ating temperature, which takes minimum 4 hours.
• Do not change the temperature settings due to the change in the
season of the year. The ambient temperature increase will be detect-
ed by the sensor and the compressor will be switched on automati-
cally for a longer period of time in order to maintain the temperature
set inside the chambers.
• The slight changes in temperature are perfectly normal and may oc-
cur, for instance during the storage of great quantities of fresh prod-
ucts in the fridge, or when the door is open for a longer period of
time. This will not affect the condition of the stored foodstuff, and the
temperature will quickly return to its set value.
Adjust the humidity level inside the VitControl box*
(Fig. 17)
Various products, such as fruit or vegetables, require a suitable level of
humidity in order to stay fresh longer. VitControl box is equipped with
a slider (Fig. 17), so the box can be supplied with more air, which will
change the humidity level inside the box.
1. Box cover
2. Air supply adjusting slider
3. Vegetable box front
Fruits require lower humidity level, therefore air supply must be opened
with a slider. With vegetables it is the other way round, to keep them
fresh longer, you should close the air flow with a slider. The exact slider
position depends on your own preferences.

The temperature inside the refrigerator compartment is also influenced
by the position of the slider controlling the amount of air supplied to the
compartment via no-frost system.
Setting the slider to min. position will result in supplying less cool air
into the refrigerator compartment. This results in minimal increase in
temperature.
When the slider in max. position, the refrigerator compartment will be
supplied with larger amount of air. This results in a slight temperature
drop inside the compartment.
Fresh Zone box*
These are perfect conditions for storing meat, fish, and other food prod-
ucts that require special conditions. Lower temperature preserves food
products flavour, aroma and nutritional values. Due to special guides,
access to the Fresh Zone box is extremely simple and convenient.
