3 Installation

B In case the information which are

given in the user manual are not taken into account, manufacturer will not assume any liability for this.

Points to be paid attention to when the relocation of the refrigerator

1. Your refrigerator should be unplugged.Before transportation of your refrigerator, it should be emptied and cleaned.

2. Before it is re-packaged, shelves, accessories, crisper, etc. inside your refrigerator should be fixed with adhesive tape and secured against impacts. Package should be bound with a thick tape or sound ropes and the transportation rules on the package should be strictly observed.

3. Original packaging and foam materials should be kept for future transportations or moving.

Before you start the refrigerator,

Check the following before you start to use your refrigerator:

1. Attach 2 plastic wedges as illustrated below. Plastic wedges are intended to keep the distance which will ensure the air circulation between your refrigerator and the wall. (The picture is drawn up as a representation and it is not identical with your product.)

2. Clean the interior of the refrigerator as recommended in the “Maintenance and cleaning” section.

3. Connect the plug of the refrigerator to the wall socket. When the fridge door is opened, fridge internal lamp will turn on.

4. When the compressor starts to operate, a sound will be heard. The liquid and gases sealed within the refrigeration system may also give rise to noise, even if the compressor is not running and this is quite normal.

5. Front edges of the refrigerator may feel warm. This is normal. These areas are designed to be warm to avoid condensation.

Electrical connection

Connect your product to a grounded socket which is being protected by a fuse with the appropriate capacity.

Important:

The connection must be in compliance with national regulations.

•The power plug must be easily

accessible after installation.

•Electrical safety of your refrigerator

shall be guaranteed only if the earth system in your house complies with standards.

•The voltage stated on the label

located at left inner side of your product should be equal to your network voltage.

•Extension cables and multi plugs

must not be used for connection.

B A damaged power cable must be

replaced by a qualified electrician.

B Product must not be operated

before it is repaired! There is the risk of electric shock!

Disposing of the packaging

The packing materials may be dangerous for children. Keep the packing materials out of the reach of children or dispose of them by classifying them in accordance with the waste instructions stated by your local authorities. Do not throw away with regular house waste, throw away on packaging pick up spots designated by the local authorities.

The packing of your refrigerator is produced from recyclable materials.

Disposing of your old refrigerator

Dispose of your old refrigerator without giving any harm to the environment.

•You may consult your authorized

dealer or waste collection center of your municipality about the disposal of your refrigerator.

Placing and Installation

A If the entrance door of the

room where the refrigerator will be installed is not wide enough for the refrigerator to pass through, then call the authorized service to have them remove the doors of your refrigerator and pass it sideways through the door.

1. Install your refrigerator to a

place that allows ease of use.

2. Keep your refrigerator away from heat sources, humid places and direct sunlight.

3. There must be appropriate air ventilation around your refrigerator in order to achieve an efficient operation. If the refrigerator is to be placed in a recess in the wall, there must be at least 5 cm distance with the ceiling and at least 5 cm with the wall. Do not place your product on the materials such as rug or carpet.

4. Place your refrigerator on an even floor surface to prevent jolts.

Before disposing of your refrigerator, cut out the electric plug and, if there are any locks on the door, make them inoperable in order to protect children against any danger.

Adjusting the legs

If your refrigerator is unbalanced;

You can balance your refrigerator by turning its front legs as illustrated in the figure. The corner where the leg exists is lowered when you turn in the direction of black arrow and raised when you turn in the opposite direction. Taking help from someone to slightly lift the refrigerator will facilitate this process.

4 Preparation

•Your cooler/freezer should be

installed at least 30 cm away from heat sources such as hobs, ovens, central heater and stoves and at least 5 cm away from electrical ovens and should not be located under direct sunlight.

•Please make sure that the interior

of your cooler/freezer is cleaned thoroughly.

•If two coolers are to be installed side

by side, there should be at least 2 cm distance between them.

•When you operate your cooler/

freezer for the first time, please observe the following instructions during the initial six hours.

•Its door should not be opened

frequently.

•It must be operated empty without

placing any food in it.

•Do not unplug your cooler/freezer.

If a power failure occurs out of your control, please see the warnings in the “Recommended solutions for the problems” section.

•The baskets/drawers that are

provided with the chill compartment must always be in use for low energy consumption and for better storage conditions.

•Food contact with the temperature

sensor in the freezer compartment may increase energy consumption of the appliance. Thus any contact with the sensor(s) must be avoided.

•This product has been designed to

function at ambient temperatures up to 43 °C (90 SDgrF). Even if the ambient temperature falls to -15

°C, frozen food in the freezer does not thaw thanks to its Advanced Electronic Temperature Control System. For the first installation, the product should NOT be placed under low ambient temperatures. This is because the freezer cannot go down to standard operation temperature. When reaching continuous operation, the product can be moved to another place. Thus, later you can place your product in the garage or an unheated room without the concern of causing frozen food to get rotten. However, it is likely that above mentioned low temperatures may cause the freezing of the food in the fridge compartment; thus, please consume the food items in the fridge in a controlled way as needed. When ambient temperature goes back to normal, you may change button setting according to your need.

•If the ambient temperature is

below 0°C, the food in fridge compartment will freeze. Therefore, we recommend not using the fridge compartment in such low ambient temperatures. You may continue to use the freezer compartment as usual.

•In some models, the instrument

panel automatically turns off 5 minutes after the door has closed. It will be reactivated when the door has opened or pressed on any key.

•Due to temperature change as

a result of opening/closing the product door during operation, condensation on the door/body shelves and the glass containers is

normal.

Reversing the doors

Proceed in numerical order .
