4 Preparation

4.1. What to do for energy saving

Connecting the product to A electronic energy-saving systems

is harmful, as it may damage the product.

•Do not keep the refrigerator doors open for long periods.

•Do not place hot food or beverages into the refrigerator.

•Do not overfill the refrigerator; blocking the internal air flow will reduce cooling capacity.

•In order to store the maximum amount of food into the cooler compartment of your refrigerator, you should take out the upper drawers and place it onto the glass rack.

The declared energy consumption of your refrigerator was determined by taking out the cooler, ice tray and upper drawers in a way that will enable maximum storage. Using the below drawer when storing is strongly recommended. Energy saving function should be activated for best energy consumption.

•You should not block the airflow by putting food in front of the cooler fan. A space of minimum 3cm must be left in front of the protective fan wire when placing food.

•Depending on the product’s features; defrosting frozen foods in the cooler compartment will ensure energy saving and preserve food quality.

•Food should be stored using the drawers in the cooler compartment in order to ensure energy saving and protect food in better conditions.

•Food packages should not be in direct contact with the heat sensor located in the cooler compartment. If they are in contact with the sensor, energy consumption of the appliance might increase.

•Make sure the foods are not in contact with the cooler compartment temperature sensor described below.

4.2. First Use

Before using your refrigerator, make sure the necessary preparations are made in line with the instructions in “Safety and environment instructions” and “Installation” sections.

•Keep the product running with no food inside for 6 and do not open the door, unless absolutely necessary.

C A sound will be heard when the compressor is engaged. It is normal to hear sound even when the compressor is inactive, due to the compressed liquids and gasses in the cooling system.

C Front edges of the product might heat up. This is normal. These areas are designed to warm up in order to prevent condensation.

C In some models indicator panel turns off automatically 5 minutes after the door closes. It will be reactivated when the door is open or any button is pressed.

5.4. Fan

Fan was designed to distribute circulate the cold air inside your refrigerator homogeneously. Operating time of the fan might vary depending the features of your product.

While in some products fan only operates with compressor, in others control system determines the operating time based on the need for cooling.

First ice will be ready in about 2 hours in the ice machine drawer in the cooler compartment.

After placing the full water tank, you can obtain about 60-70 cubes of ice until it is fully empty.

If the water in the tank has waited for 2-3 weeks, it should be changed.

C In products with automatic ice machine, you might hear a sound when pouring the ice. This sound is normal and is not a sign of failure.

6 Maintenance and cleaning

Service life of the product is increase if it is regularly cleaned

B WARNING: First unplug the product before cleaning your refrigerator.

•Never use any sharp and abrasive tools, soap, household cleaners, detergent and wax polish for cleaning.

•Dissolve one teaspoon of carbonate in half liter of water. Soak a cloth with the solution and wrung it thoroughly. Wipe the interior of the appliance with this cloth and the dry thoroughly.

•Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical items.

•Clean the door with a damp cloth. To remove door and body shelves, remove all of its contents. Remove door shelves by moving them upwards. After cleaning, slide them from top to bottom to install.

•Never 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.

•Do not use sharp, abrasive tools, soap, household cleaning agents, detergents, kerosene, fuel oil, varnish etc. to prevent removal and deformation of the prints on the plastic part. Use lukewarm water and a soft cloth for cleaning and then wipe it dry.

6.1. Avoiding bad odors

Materials that may cause odor are not used in the production of our appliances. However, due to inappropriate food preserving conditions and not cleaning the inner surface of the appliance as required can bring forth the problem of odor.

Therefore, clean the refrigerator with carbonate dissolved in water every 15 days.

•Keep the food in closed containers. Microorganisms spreading out from uncovered containers can cause unpleasant odours.

•Never keep the food that have expired best before dates and spoiled in the refrigerator.

6.2. Protecting the plastic surfaces

Clean with arm water immediately as the oil may cause damage on the surface when it is poured on plastic surfaces.

6.3. Door Glasses

Remove the protective foil on the glasses.

There is a coating on the surface of the glasses.This coating minimizes the stain build-up and helps to remove the possible stains and dirt easily.Glasses that are not protected with such a coating may be subject to persistent binding of air or water based organic or inorganic dirt such as limescale, mineral salts, unburned hydrocarbons, metal oxides and silicones that can easily and quickly cause stains or material damage. Keeping the glass clean becomes too difficult despite the regular cleaning. Consequently, the appearance and the transparency of the glass deteriorates. Harsh and corrosive cleaning methods and compounds will intensify these defects and speed up the deterioration process.

Water-based cleaning products that are not alkaline and corrosive must be used for regular cleaning purposes.

Non-alkaline and non-corrosive materials must be used for cleaning so that the service life of this coating lasts for a long time.

These glasses are tempered to increase their durability against impacts and breaking.

A safety film is also applied to their rear surfaces as an extra safety measure in order to prevent them from causing damage to their surrounding in case of a breakage.

*Alkali is a base that forms hydroxide ions (OH¯) when it is dissolved in water.

Li (Lithium), Na (Sodium), K (Potassium) Rb (Rubidium), Cs (Cesium) and artificial and radioactive Fr (Fan-sium) metals are called ALKALI METALS.
