The temperature of the refrigeration section is the controlling factor operating the single compressor of the unit; therefore, there is no positive control of the freezer section and no certainty what temperature will result in it. Practical experience has shown that the freezer becomes a small "fridge", and might be suitable for storage of soft drinks, beer, etc.; however, no assurance can be given that freezing temperatures might not be reached, resulting in possible aluminum can or bottle ruptures. Adjustment of the relative temperatures of the refrigerator/freezer sections is usually a feature of the unit, so experimentation is encouraged.
NOTE: The extra-cost "Freezer Option" feature of the WINE-STAT is NOT needed for a refrigerator configuration, and will not offer supplemental control of the freezer section. This option is meant only for those installations using a stand-alone freezer for wine storage.
