Deep-freeze information
Food must be frozen as rapidly as possible when they are p
ut in a refrigerator in order to keep them in good quality.
The TSE norm requires (according to certain measurement conditions) the refrigerator to freeze at least 4.5 kg of foodstuff at 32°C ambient temperature to -18°C or lower within 24 hours for every 100-liters of freezer volume.
It is possible to keep the food for a long time only at -18°C or lower temperatures.
You can keep the freshness of food for many months (at -18°C or lower temperatures in the deep freeze).
WARNING! A
•Foodstuff must be divided into portions according to the family’s daily or meal based consumption needs.
•Foodstuff must be packaged in an airtight manner to prevent them from drying even if they are going to be kept for a short time.
Materials necessary for packaging:
•Cold resistant adhesive tape
•Self adhesive label
•Rubber rings
•Pen
Materials to be used for packaging the foodstuff must be tear-proof and resistant to cold, humidity, odor, oils and acids.
Foodstuff to be frozen should not be allowed to come in contact with the previously frozen items to prevent their partial thawing.
Frozen food must be used immediately after they are thawed and they should never be re-frozen.
16 EN
Egg tray
You can install the egg holder to the desired door or body shelf.
Never store the egg holder in the freezer compartment
Sliding Body Shelves
Sliding body shelves can be pulled by slightly lifting up from the front and moved back and forth. They come to
a stop point when pulled towards front to allow you reach the foods placed at the back of the shelf; when it is pulled after slightly lifting upwards at the second stop point, the body shelf will be released.
The shelf should be held tightly from the bottom as well in order to prevent it from tipping over. The body shelf is placed on the rails at the sides of the refrigerator body by bringing it to one lower or one upper level.
The body shelf should be pushed backwards to seat it completely.

Crisper
Crisper of your refrigerator is designed specially to keep your vegetables freshly without loosing their humidity. For this purpose, cool air circulation occurs around the crisper in general.
Chiller compartment
Chiller compartments enable the foods to be frozen become ready 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. To do this, pull the compartment towards yourself; the compartment will lean against the stopper and stop. This compartment will be released when you lift it about 1 cm and pull it towards yourself.
17 EN
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 closed.
4- It must not be opened manually. It moves under the guidance of the
plastic part on the body while the door is closed.
Multi Zone Storage Compartment
The Multi Zone 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 in the desired temperature with the Multi Zone Storage Compartment Temperature
Setting Button. The temperature of the Multi Zone 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 cuttable condition.
C 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 analog clock may be heard. This is normal and is not fault cause.
Blue light
