Refrigerator / User Manual

Operating the product

Boil the vegetables and drain their water in order to store vegetables for a longer time as frozen. After draining their water, put them in air-proof packages and place them inside the freezer. Food such as bananas, tomatoes, lettuce, celery, boiled eggs, potatoes are not suitable for freezing. When these foods are frozen, only their nutritional value and taste shall be affected negatively. They shall not be spoiled so that they would create a risk for human health.

5.6 Placing the food

Freezer compartment shelves

Various frozen food such as meat, fish, ice cream, vegetables and etc.

Food in pans, covered plates and closed containers, eggs (in closed container)

Small and packaged food or beverage

Delicatessen (breakfast food, meat products that shall be consumed in a short time)

5.7 Door open warning

(This feature is optional)

An audio warning signal will be given when the door of your product is left open for 1 minute. This warning will be muted when the door is closed or any of the display buttons (if any) are pressed.

5.8 Chiller compartment

Chiller compartments allow you to prepare the food for freezing. You can also use these compartments to store your food at a temperature a few degrees below the fridge compartment. You can increase the inner volume of your refrigerator by removing any of the chiller compartments:

1. Pull the compartment towards yourself until it

stops.

2. Lift the compartment about 1 cm up and pull

towards yourself to remove it from its seating.

5.9 Crisper

Crisper of the refrigerator is designed specially to keep the vegetables fresh without loosing their humidity. For this purpose, cool air circulation is intensified around the crisper in general. Remove the door shelves that stand against the crisper before removing the crisper.

5.10 Humidity-controlled crisper (FreSHelf)

(This feature is optional)

Humidity rates of fruits and vegetables are kept under control thanks to the humidity-controlled crisper and thus the food is ensured to stay fresh for a longer period.

We recommend that you place leafy vegetables such as lettuce and spinach and vegetables sensitive to humidity loss as horizontally as possible when putting them in the crisper; not in a horizontal position on their roots.

While the vegetables are being replaced, their specific weights should be taken into consideration. Heavy and hard vegetables must be placed at the bottom of the crisper and light and soft vegetables must be on the upper part.

21/ 29 EN

Refrigerator / User Manual

Operating the product

Never leave the vegetables in their plastic bags in the crisper. If they are left in their plastic bags, this will cause them to rot in a little while. If you not prefer the vegetable to get in contact with other vegetables for hygienic reasons, use perforated paper or a similar material instead of plastic bags.

Do not place pears, apricots, peaches etc., especially those fruits that generate large amounts of ethylene, in the same crisper with other fruits and vegetables. The ethylene gas emitted by these fruits cause other fruits to ripen sooner and to rot in a shorter span of time.

5.11 Egg tray

You can install the egg holder to the desired door or body shelf. Never keep the egg holder in the freezer compartment.

5.12 Movable Middle Section

Movable middle section is intended to prevent the cold air inside your refrigerator from escaping outside.

1- Sealing is provided when the gaskets on the door presses on the surface of the movable middle section while the fridge compartment doors are closed.

2- Another reason that your refrigerator is equipped with a movable middle section is that it increases the net volume of the fridge compartment. Standard middle sections occupy some non-usable volume in the refrigerator.

3-Movable middle section is closed when the left door of the fridge compartment is opened.

4-It must not be opened manually. It moves under the guidance of the plastic part on the body while the door is closed.

5.13 Cool Control Storage Compartment

The Cool Control Storage Compartment of your refrigerator may be used in any desired mode by adjusting it to fridge (2/4/6/8 °C) or freezer (-18/-20/-22/-24) temperatures. You can keep the compartment at the desired temperature with the Cool Control Storage Compartment's Temperature Setting Button. The temperature of the Cool Control Storage Compartment may be set to 0 and 10 degrees in addition to the fridge compartment temperatures and to -6 degrees in addition to the freezer compartment temperatures. 0 degree is used to store the deli products longer, and -6 degrees is used to keep the meats up to 2 weeks in an easily sliceable condition.

The feature of switching to a Fridge or Freezer compartment is provided by a cooling element located in the closed section (Compressor Compartment) behind the refrigerator. During operation of this element, sounds similar to the sound of seconds heard from an analogue clock may be heard. This is normal and is not fault cause.

5.14 Blue light

(in some models)

Crisper of the refrigerator are illuminated with a blue light. Foodstuff stored in the crisper continue their photosynthesis by means of the wavelength effect of blue light and thus, preserve their freshness and increase their vitamin content.

5.17 Using internal water dispenser

(in some models)

After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water filter, flush the water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the water dispenser lever for 5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds. Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing the dispenser paddle (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of 4 gal. (15L) has been dispensed. This will flush air from the filter and water dispensing system, and prepare the water filter for use. Additional flushing may be required in some households. As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the dispenser. Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water. Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh supply.

After 5 minutes of continuous dispensing, the dispenser will stop dispensing water to avoid flooding.

To continue dispensing, press the dispenser paddle again.

5.18 Dispensing water

Hold a container under the dispenser spout while pressing the dispenser pad. Release the dispenser pad to stop dispensing.

It is normal for the first few glasses of water taken from the dispenser to be

C C

warm. If the water dispenser is not used for a long

period of time, dispose of first few glasses of water to obtain fresh water.

5.19 For using water dispenser

Before using your fridge first time and after replacing your water filter, water dispenser may drip drops of water. To prevent water dripping or leaking from dispenser, please bleed the air from the system by dispensing 5-6 gallons (about 20 liter) of water through the water dispenser before the first use and every time after you change

the water filter. This will remove any air trapped in the system and stop the water dispenser from leaking. Checking coupler position and the straightness of water line at the back of the unit will be required if there’s an obstruction in water flow.

If your water dispenser is leaking just a few drops of water after you have dispensed some water, this is normal.

During initial use, you will have to wait approximately 24 hours for the water to cool down. Take out the glass a little while after you pull the trigger.
