Thermostat device
The main function of the thermostat is to control the motor-compressor in the mechanical system of the unit.
Installation of the thermostat in most models is carried out either on the front panel of the equipment or in the refrigerator chamber itself. In this case, the adjustment of this part of the equipment is done differently depending on the model of the device.
Electronic control
Many modern refrigerators are equipped with electronic temperature control. For this, a control panel is placed on the door of the refrigerator. Set the desired temperature mode by pressing the buttons.
In such devices, thermistors are used instead of a thermostat. Sensors are placed on the evaporators in the refrigerator and freezer. Sensor readings are displayed on an electronic board, where, after processing the information, they are used to turn the compressor on and off.

- Gorenje. Temperature control in such units is carried out by turning the special thermostat knob to the position between the maximum and minimum values. The best option is to install the thermostat in the Eco position.

So for example, if this indicator is -16, then in this case, turn the thermostat knob to the "Maximum" pointer. Accordingly, at high temperatures, the thermostat knob must be turned in the opposite direction.
- Liebher. Here the thermostat is adjusted by means of an electronic system. The main advantage of this manufacturer's refrigerator is the presence of the CoolPlus system. When turned on, the temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer does not depend on the temperature in the room where the unit is installed.
- Atlant. We can say that this is one of the most popular brands of the refrigerator. The thermostat is adjusted using a special knob. In this case, the regulation is carried out on a seven-point scale.
