Temperature Control; Interior Lighting; Storing Food - SEVERIN KS 9788 Mode D'emploi

If the unit has been tilted to more than 30°, wait for about 4
hours before re-connecting it to the mains.

Temperature control

The unit is re-activated by connecting it to the mains. It is only
switched off completely when the plug is removed from the
wall socket. The temperature in the refrigerator cabinet can be
adjusted by setting the temperature control. Turning the control
clockwise will decrease the temperature, while turning it anti-
clockwise will increase it.
The medium settings are usually most suitable for home use.
We recommend using a thermometer to check the actual
temperature inside the cabinet and make adjustments as
necessary.
Following a power interruption, or if the unit has been switched
off on purpose, it may take 3 to 5 minutes before it switches
on again.
In position '0', the cooling function is switched off, though
the appliance is still connected to the mains.

Interior lighting

Caution: do not remove the cover of the interior LED light. If
there should be any malfunction, please contact the customer
service for assistance.

Storing food

∙ The temperatures inside the refrigerator cabinet depends
mainly on the ambient temperature, the temperature control
setting and the amount of food stored.
∙ Different areas of the refrigerator cabinet are affected
differently by the cooling effect. The warmest area is around
the door in the higher part of the cabinet, the coldest around
the rear wall and in the lower part of the cabinet.
∙ The food should therefore be stored as follows:
∙ On main cabinet shelves (from top to bottom): bakery items,
ready meals, dairy products, meat, fi sh and cold meats/
sausages.
∙ In the vegetable compartment: vegetables, salad and fruit.
∙ In the door (from top to bottom): butter, cheese, eggs, tubes
(eg mustard), small bottles, large bottles, milk and fruit-juice
tetra-packs.
∙ Initially, the temperature control should be set to position 4.
If the cooling effect is too strong, lower it to position 1-3; if it
is insuffi cient, raise it to 5-7.
If you notice frost on the rear wall, the most likely cause
is that the door has been left open for too long, or that
warm food has been placed inside the refrigerator or
that the temperature control has been set too high.
∙ Liquid or strong-smelling food, or food which is likely to
absorb strong odours (e.g. cheese, fi sh, butter), should be
stored separately or in hermetically sealed containers.
∙ Warm food should be left to cool down to room
temperature before being placed in the refrigerator.
