-
The temperature can be set at between -14°C and -28°C.

area with a high ambient temperature it will not reach the
lowest temperature).
Temperature display
The highest temperature of the frozen food 1 is dis-
played in normal operating mode.
The
displaywillash:
- if you change the temperature or
-
if the temperature rises by several degrees, indicating cold
loss, e.g. if you place fresh, "warm" food in the freezer or
if you remove or re-pack frozen food the temperature may
rise for a short time due to warm air owing into the freezer.
Once you have nished loading or re-packing, the electron-
ics will automatically re-set the temperature to the most
recent setting. Short-term rises in temperature will not
aect the frozen food.
