(ACTUAL temperature) is displayed.
• When the temperature is being adjusted a flashing display indicates the
freezer temperature currently set (DESIRED temperature).

the DESIRED temperature currently set flashes on the temperature display.

"Temperature setting buttons"). The temperature display will immediately
show the changed setting. Each time the button is pressed the temperatu-
re is adjusted by 1 °C.

the FROSTMATIC button again. The yellow light goes out.
Alarm reset button
In the event of an abnormal temperature rise inside the freezer (e.g. power
cut) warning light (O) will start to flash and a buzzer will sound.
After the temperature has returned to normal, the warning light (O) will
continue to flash, although the buzzer has stopped.
When the alarm button is pressed, the warmest temperature reached in the
compartment flashes on the indicator.
