that the plug is accessible.
Warning! This Appliance
Must Be Earthed
If the fitted moulded plug is not
suitable for your socket, then the plug
should be cut off and an appropriate
plug fitted. Destroy the old plug which
is cut off as a plug with bared cord
could cause a shock hazard if inserted
into a socket elsewhere in the house.
The moulded plug on this appliance
incorporates a 13 A fuse. Should
the fuse need to be replaced an
ASTABEAB approved BS 1362 fuse
of the same rating must be used. Do
not forget to refit the fuse cover. In the
event of losing the fuse cover the plug
must not be used until a replacement

specially to keep your vegetables
freshly 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.

Water Dispenser
*optional
Water dispenser is a very useful
feature based on reaching cold water
without opening the door of your
refrigerator. As you will not have to
open your refrigerator door frequently,
you will have saved energy.
As the level of the water in your glass/
container rises, slightly lessen the
pressure on the arm to prevent the
overspill. If you slightly press the arm,
the water will drip; this is quite normal
and not a failure.
.
Using the water dispenser
Push the arm of the water dispenser
with your glass. The dispenser will
cease operating once you release the
arm.
When operating the water dispenser,
maximum flow can be obtained
by pressing the arm fully. Please
remember that the amount of flow
from the dispenser is subject to the
degree you press the arm.
Filling the water dispenser's tank
Open the cover of the water tank as
shown in the figure. Fill in the pure and
clean drinking water. Close the cover.
To avoid flowing of water by mistake,
we recommend you to lock the water
dispenser.
Warning!
• Do not fill the water tank with any
other liquid except for water such as
fruit juices, carbonated beverages
or alcoholic drinks which are not
suitable to use in the water dispenser.
EN
20
Page 22
Water dispenser will be irreparably
damaged if these kinds of liquids are
used. Warranty does not cover such
usages. Some chemical substances
and additives contained in these
kinds of drinks/liquids may damage
the water tank.
• Use clean and pure drinking water only.
• Capacity of the water tank is 2.2 liters
(3.8 pints); do not overfill.
• Push the arm of the water dispenser
with a rigid glass. If you are using
disposable plastic glasses, push the
arm with your fingers from behind the
glass.
• Safety lock is intended to provide ease
of usage when filling the water tank
and at the same time to prevent little
children to tamper with the water
dispenser.

7 Recommended solutions for the problems
Please review this list before calling the service. It might save you time and
money. This list includes frequent complaints that are not arising from defective
workmanship or material usage. Some of the features described here may not
exist in your product.
The refrigerator does not operate
• Is the refrigerator properly plugged in? Insert the plug to the wall socket.
• Is the fuse of the socket which your refrigerator is connected to or the main fuse
blown out? Check the fuse.
Condensation on the side wall of the fridge compartment
• Very cold ambient conditions. Frequent opening and closing of the door. Highly
humid ambient conditions. Storage of food containing liquid in open containers.
Leaving the door ajar.
• Switching the thermostat to a colder degree.
• Decreasing the time the door left open or using it less frequently.
• Covering the food stored in open containers with a suitable material.
• Wipe the condensation using a dry cloth and check if it persists.
Compressor is not running
• Protective thermic of the compressor will blow out during sudden power failures or
plug-out plug-ins as the refrigerant pressure in the cooling system of the refrigerator
has not been balanced yet.
• Your refrigerator will start running approximately after 6 minutes. Please call the
service if your refrigerator does not startup at the end of this period.
• The fridge is in defrost cycle. This is normal for a full-automatically defrosting
refrigerator. Defrosting cycle occurs periodically.

• Your new refrigerator may be larger than the previous one. This is quite normal.
Large refrigerators operate for a longer period of time.
• The ambient room temperature may be high.This is quite normal.
• The refrigerator might have been plugged in recently or might have been loaded
with food. Cooling down of the refrigerator completely may last for a couple of
hours longer.
• Large amounts of hot food might have been put in the refrigerator recently. Hot
food causes longer running of the refrigerator until they reach the safe storage
temperature.
• Doors might have been opened frequently or left ajar for a long time. The warm
air that has entered into the refrigerator causes the refrigerator to run for longer
periods. Open the doors less frequently.
• Freezer or fridge compartment door might have been left ajar. Check if the doors
are tightly closed.
• The refrigerator is adjusted to a very low temperature. Adjust the refrigerator
temperature to a warmer degree and wait until the temperature is achieved.
• Door seal of the fridge or freezer may be soiled, worn out, broken or not properly
seated. Clean or replace the seal. Damaged/broken seal causes the refrigerator to
run for a longer period of time in order to maintain the current temperature.

• The door might be left ajar. Close the door completely.
• Large amounts of hot food might have been put in the refrigerator recently. Wait
until the fridge or freezer reaches the desired temperature.
• Refrigerator might have been plugged in recently. Cooling down of the refrigerator
completely takes time because of the size.
Noise similar to the sound of seconds heard from an analog clock is coming from
the refrigerator.
• This noise is coming from the solenoid valve of the refrigerator. Solenoid valve
functions for the purpose of ensuring coolant passage through the compartment
which can be adjusted to cooling or freezing temperatures, and performing cooling
functions. This is normal and is not fault cause.
The operation noise increases when the refrigerator is running.
• The operating performance characteristics of the refrigerator may change according
to the changes in the ambient temperature. It is normal and not a fault.

• Hot and humid weather increases icing and condensation. It is normal and not a
fault.
