The system warns: ­ if the temperature in the freezer compartment is too warm; ­ if there is a malfunction in the appliance. Temperature Warning The red warning light flashes and a warning tone sounds as soon as the temperature in the freezer compartment is warmer than -12°C. Such a temperature increase is probably due to: ­ frequent or extended opening of the door; ­ storing large quantities of warm food; ­ a fault in the appliance. The warning tone can be switched off using the WARNING OFF button. The warning light and warning tone switch off automatically when the ACTUAL temperature in the freezer compartment drops again and returns to the range of the display. Note: The warning tone switches off: - after the initial start up when the internal temperature of -18°C has been reached; - by pressing on the Frostmatic button. Malfunctions If the electronics in the appliance have detected a fault that prevents the ACTUAL temperature being measured, all the lights in the temperature display will flash. The appliance will continue to function using a backup program until customer service has repaired the appliance. 62 Freezing and storing frozen food You can use your freezer for freezing fresh food yourself. · The temperature in the freezer compartment must be ­18 °C or colder before freezing food. · Please observe the freezing capacity given on the rating plate.
