High temperature alarm
An increase in the temperature in the freezer (for example due to an earlier power failure
or door is open) is indicated by:

When normal conditions are restored:

• ALARM OFF light continues to flash.
Stop the alarm light by pushing the ALARM OFF switch.
When the ALARM OFF switch is hold, the warmest temperature reached in the compartment
