5.6. Blue light

(This feature is optional)

Crispers of the product 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.

5.7. Deodorising Module (FreshGuard)

(This feature is optional)

The deodorising module eliminates the bad odours in your refrigerator in a short while before they pervade the surfaces. Thanks to this module located in the ceiling of the fresh food compartment, the air actively passes over the odour filter, meanwhile bad odour molecules decompose, and the air that has come out after being cleaned is given back into the fresh food compartment. This way, the unwanted odours that may form while foods are being stored in the refrigerator can be eliminated before they pervade the surfaces. This is achieved via the fan, LED and the odour filter in the module. The deodorising module will get automatically activated periodically. The noise that will be heard due to the fan during the periodical operation is normal. If the door of the fresh food compartment is opened while the module is active, the fan will stop temporarily and it will continue to operate once the door has been closed. In case of power failure, the deodorising module will start to operate once the power is back.

Info: To prevent bad odours that may emerge from the mixing of smells of different foods, we recommend you to store aromatic foods such as cheese, olives and delicatessen products in their sealed packages. For the safety of other foods stored and to prevent odours, we recommend you to remove the foods you have realised are spoiled from the refrigerator as soon as possible.

5.8. Ionizer

(This feature is optional)

The ionizer system in the cooler compartment’s air duct serves to ionize the air. The negative ion emissions will eliminate bacteria and other molecules causing odour in the air.

5.9. Chiller compartment

(This feature is optional)

Use this compartment to store delicatessen that shall be stored in a lower temperature or meat products that you will consume in a short time. Do not store your fruits or vegetables in this compartment. You can increase the inner volume of your product by removing any of the chiller compartments. To remove, just pull the compartment until it stops, and then lift it and pull towards yourself.

5.10. 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. Store your fruits and vegetables in this compartment. To preserve green leafy vegetables for a longer time, do not store them near fruits.

5.11. 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.

5.12. Using the water dispenser

(This feature is optional)

Refrigerator / User Manual

Operating the product

2. After filling the cup up to the level you want, release the lever.

Please note, how much water flows

from the dispenser depends on how far you depress the lever. As the level of water in your cup / glass rises, gently reduce the amount of pressure on the lever to avoid overflow. If you slightly press the arm, the water will drip; this is quite normal and not a failure.

Use clean drinking water only.

Capacity of the water tank is 3 liters;

do not overfill.

5.13. Filling the water dispenser's tank

5.16. Everfresh (Humiditycontrolled crisper)

(This feature is optional)

Thanks to the humidity-controlled crisper, you can store fruits and vegetables under ideal humidity conditions for a longer time. You can control the humidity inside the refrigerator thanks to the humidity setting system with 3 options, which is located on the front side of the crisper. We recommend you to select the vegetable option when storing vegetables only, fruit option when storing fruits only, and mix option when storing fruits and vegetables at the same time.

To benefit from the humidity control system and increase the storage life of foods, we recommend you not to store your fruits and vegetables in plastic bags. If the vegetables are left inside their bags, this will cause them to decompose in a short period of time. It is especially recommended not to store cucumber and broccoli in plastic bags. In case contacting with other vegetables is not preferred for hygiene concerns, use a perforated brown bag and other similar packaging materials instead of a bag.

While the vegetables are being placed, specific gravity of the vegetables should be taken into consideration. Heavy and hard vegetables should be put at the bottom of the crisper and the lightweight and soft vegetables should be placed over. Do not place together the pear, apricot, peach, etc. and apple in particular which have a high level of generation of ethylene gas in the same crisper with the other vegetables and fruit. The ethylene gas which is emitted by these fruit may cause the other fruit to ripen faster and decompose in a shorter time.

6 Care and Cleaning

6.5. Cleaning Products with Glass Doors

Remove the protection foil on the glass. There is a coating on the surface of the glass. This coating minimises stain formation and ensures that stains and dirt are cleaned easily. Glasses that are not protected by a coating might be exposed to permanent bonding of organic or inorganic, air or waterborne pollutants such as limescale, mineral salts, unburned hydrocarbons, metal oxides an silicons, which lead to stains and physical damage in a short time. Despite regular washing, the glass becomes very hard to keep clean, though not impossible. As a result, the clarity and good appearance of the glass reduces. Hard and abrasive cleaning compounds and methods increase these defects even further and accelerate the deterioration process. *Non-alkali, non-abrasive and water-based cleaning products must be used for routing cleaning procedures. For the coating to have long service life, alkali or abrasive substances must not be used during cleaning processes. These glasses were subject to a tempering process to increase their impact and breakage resistance. As an additional safety measure, there is a safety film on the back surfaces of the glasses to ensure that they will not harm the environment in case of breakage.
