5 Using your refrigerator

Thermostat setting button

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

•Seasonal temperatures,

•Frequent opening of the door and leaving the door open for long periods,

•Food put into the refrigerator without cooling down to the room temperature,

•The location of the refrigerator in the room (e.g. exposing to sunlight).

•You may adjust the varying interior temperature due to such reasons by using the thermostat. Numbers around the thermostat button indicates the cooling degrees.

•If the ambient temperature is higher than 32°C, turn the thermostat button to maximum position.

•If the ambient temperature is lower than 25°C, turn the thermostat button to minimum position.

Defrost

Fridge compartment performs fullautomatic defrosting. 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.

•Frost formation in the freezer compartment must be defrosted every 6 months. It is recommended to defrost the ice when the deep freezer compartment is not filled too much or is empty.

•To do this, wrap the frozen food

by paper and keep them in the coolest place possible or in another refrigerator if available.

14 EN

•Stop your refrigerator by means of the temperature setting button or unplug the power cord from the outlet. You can place a container filled with hot water into the freezer compartment or leave the door of the freezer compartment open in order to hasten the defrosting.

•Remove the water that accumulates

in the lower container of the freezer compartment with an absorbent cloth or sponge.

•Dry the freezer compartment completely and return the temperature setting button to its previous position.

•Operate your refrigerator for 2 hours while it is empty and its doors are closed before replacing your food into the deep freezer.

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.

Crisper humidity control sliders

Using the crisper humidity control sliders

Crisper of your refrigerator is designed specially to keep your vegetables fresh without loosing their humidity. Cold air circulates basically around the crisper and the amount of the cold air passing through the crisper is controlled by the sliders on the front side of the crisper cover.

You can adjust the humidity control sliders to a suitable position according to the humidity and cooling condition of your food in the crisper.

If you want your food in the crisper to cool more, open the holes of the humidity control sliders and if you want them to cool less and keep their humidity for a longer time, close the holes.

15 EN

Using the rotary crisper (in some models)

The crisper of your refrigerator which opens with a rotating movement is designed specially to provide ease of usage and allow you to store more vegetables and fruits (large volume) you buy during large shopping.
