Cooler temperature (higher energy
consumption)
Set cooler temperatures only as a temporary measure
when large quantities of food are put into the freezer
compartment or when ice is produced.
Note
When a cooler temperature was set while the outside
temperature is higher, the cooling unit runs very
frequently or without interruptions. This results in higher
energy consumption.
