minimum and medium positions (1-3).
•
For long-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set knob to the
medium position (3-4).
Note that: The ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how often
the door is opened, affects the temperature in the refrigerator compartment. If required,
change the temperature setting.

When you first switch on the appliance, leave the appliance running continuously for 24
hours in order to reach operating temperature.

During this time, try to limit the number of times that the door is opened and do not store
a large quantity of food in the appliance.
