Note that: The ambient temperature,
the temperature of freshly stored food,
and how often the door is opened all affect
the temperature in the appliance. If
required, change the temperature setting.
3.2 Temperature Settings Warnings
• The ambient temperature, temperature of
the freshly stored food and how often the
door is opened affects the temperature
in the freezer compartment. If required,
change the temperature setting.
• It is not recommended that you operate
your freezer in environments colder than
10°C in terms of its efciency.
• When setting the thermostat, take into
consideration how often the appliance
door is opened and closed, how much
food is stored in the freezer, and the
environment in which the freezer is

- 43°C) intervals stated in the standards,
according to the climate class displayed
on the information label. We do not
recommend operating your appliance out
