Defrost

A) Fridge compartment

Fridge compartment performs full-

automatic defrosting. Water drops and a

frosting up to 7-8 mm can occur on the inner rear wall of the fridge compartment while your refrigerator cools down. Such formation is normal as a result of the cooling system. The frost formation is defrosted by performing automatic defrosting with certain intervals thanks to the automatic defrosting system of the rear wall. User is not required to scrape the frost or remove the water drops. Water resulting from the defrosting passes from the water collection groove and ﬂows into the evaporator through the drain pipe and evaporates here by itself.

Check regularly to see if the drain pipe is clogged or not and clear it with the stick in the hole when necessary.

B) Freezer compartment

The freezer compartment defrosts

automatically.

Warnings!

The fan inside the freezer compartment circulates cold air. Never insert any object through the guard. Do not allow children to play with the freezer fan. Never store products that contain inﬂammable propellant gas (e.g. dispensers, spray cans etc.) or explosive substances. Don’t cover the shelves with any protective materials, which may obstruct air circulation. Do not allow children to play with appliance or tamper with the controls. Do not obstruct the freezer fan guard to ensure that you obtain the best possible performance from your appliance.

Zero temperature compartment

This compartment has been designed to store frozen food which would be thawed slowly (meat, fish, chicken, etc.) as required. Zero temperature compartment is the coldest place of your refrigerator in which dairy products (cheese, butter), meat, fish or chicken may be kept at ideal storage conditions. Vegetables and/or fruits must not be placed in this compartment.

6 Maintenance and cleaning

A Never use gasoline, benzene or

similar substances for cleaning purposes.

B We recommend that you unplug the

appliance before cleaning.

B Never use any sharp abrasive

instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent and wax polish for cleaning.

C Use lukewarm water to clean the

cabinet of your refrigerator and wipe it dry.

C Use a damp cloth wrung out in

a solution of one teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to one pint of water to clean the interior and wipe it dry.

B Make sure that no water enters the

lamp housing and other electrical items.

B If your refrigerator is not going to be

used for a long period of time, unplug the power cable, remove all food, clean it and leave the door ajar.

C Check door seals regularly to ensure

they are clean and free from food particles.

A To remove door racks, remove all the

contents and then simply push the door rack upwards from the base.

ANever use cleaning agents or water

that contain chlorine to clean the outer surfaces and chromium coated parts of the product. Chlorine causes corrosion on such metal surfaces.

Protection of plastic surfaces

Do not put the liquid oils or oil-cooked

meals in your refrigerator in unsealed containers as they damage the plastic surfaces of your refrigerator. In case of spilling or smearing oil on the plastic surfaces, clean and rinse the relevant part of the surface at once with warm water.
