Please choose the setting according

to the desired temperature.

Please note that there will be different temperatures in the cooling area.

The coldest region is immediately above the vegetable compartment.

The interior temperature also depends on ambient temperature, the frequency with which the door is opened and the amount of foods kept inside.

Frequently opening the door causes

the interior temperature to rise.

For this reason, it is recommended to close the door again as soon as possible after use.

The interior temperature of your refrigerator changes for the following reasons;

Cooling

Defrost

Food storage

The fridge compartment is for the short-term storage of fresh food and drinks.

Freezing

Freezing food

The freezing compartment is marked with this symbol.

You can use the appliance for freezing fresh food as well as for storing pre-frozen food.

Please refer to the recommendations given on the packaging of your food.

Storing frozen food

The frozen food compartment is marked with symbol.

The frozen food compartment is suitable for the storage of prefrozen food. The recommendation for storage, as stated on the food packaging, should be observed at all times.

A) Fridge compartment

Fridge compartment performs fullautomatic 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.

Deep freezer compartment does not perform automatic defrosting in order to prevent decaying of the frozen food.

B) Freezer compartment

Defrosting is very straightforward and without mess, thanks to a special defrost collection basin.

Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 (1/4”) mm has formed.

To start the defrosting procedure, switch off the appliance at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug.

All food should be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in a cool place (e.g. fridge or larder).

Containers of warm water may be placed carefully in the freezer to speed up the defrosting.

Do not use pointed or sharp-edged objects, such as knives or forks to remove the frost.

Never use hair dryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for defrosting.

Sponge out the defrost water collected in the bottom of the freezer compartment. After defrosting, dry the interior thoroughly.

Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply.

Stopping your product

If your thermostat is equipped with

“0” position:

- Your product will stop operating when you turn the thermostat button to “0” (zero) position. Your product will not start unless to you turn the thermostat button to position “1” or one of the other positions again.

If your thermostat is equipped with
