3 Installation
C Please remember that the
manufacturer shall not be held liable if
the information given in the instruction
manual is not observed.
Points to be considered
when re-transporting your
refrigerator
1. Your refrigerator must be
emptied and cleaned prior to any
transportation.
2. Shelves, accessories, crisper and etc.
in your refrigerator must be fastened
securely by adhesive tape against any
jolt before repackaging.
3. Packaging must be tied with thick
tapes and strong ropes and the
rules of transportation printed on the
package must be followed.
C Always remember...
Every recycled material is an
indispensable source for the nature
and for our national resources.
If you wish to contribute to recycling
the packaging materials, you can
get further information from the
environmental bodies or local
authorities.
Before operating your
refrigerator
Before starting to use your refrigerator
check the following:
1. Is the interior of the refrigerator dry
and can the air circulate freely in the
rear of it?
2. You can install the 2 plastic wedges
as illustrated in the figure. Plastic
wedges will provide the required
distance between your refrigerator
and the wall in order to allow the air
circulation. (The illustrated figure is
only an example and does not match
exactly with your product.)
3. Clean the interior of the refrigerator as
recommended in the “Maintenance
and cleaning” section.
4. Plug the refrigerator into the wall
outlet. When the door is open the
respective interior light will come on.
5. You will hear a noise as the
compressor starts up. 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.
6. Front edges of the refrigerator may
feel warm. This is normal. These
areas are designed to be warm to
avoid condensation.

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

Open door warning
An audio warning will be given when
the fridge or freezer compartment
door of your product is left open for
a certain period of time. This audio
warning signal will mute when any
button on the indicator is pressed or
when the door is closed.
Dual cooling system:
Your refrigerator is equipped with
two separate cooling systems to
cool the fresh food compartment
and freezer compartment. Thus, air
in the fresh food compartment and
freezer compartment do not get
mixed. Thanks to these two separate
cooling systems, cooling speed is
much higher then other refrigerators.
Odours in the compartments do not
get mixed. Also additional power
saving is provided since the defrosting
is performed individually.

Explanations
These settings are recommended when the ambient
temperature exceeds 30°C.
Use when you wish to freeze your food in a short
time. Your refrigerator will return to its previous mode
when the process is over.
If you think that your fridge compartment is not cold
enough because of the hot conditions or frequent
opening and closing of the door.
You can use it when your fridge compartment is
overloaded or if you wish to cool down your food
rapidly. It is recommended that you activate quick
fridge function 4-8 hours before placing the food.
Freezing fresh food
• It must be preferred to wrap or cover
the food before placing them in the
refrigerator.
• Hot food must cool down to the
room temperature before putting
them in the refrigerator.
• The foodstuff that you want to freeze
must be fresh and in good quality.
• Foodstuff must be divided into
portions according to the family’s
daily or meal based consumption
needs.
• The 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 to be used for packaging
must be tear-proof and resistant to
cold, humidity, odor, oils and acids
and they must also be airtight.
Moreover, they must be well closed
and they must be made from easyto-use materials that are suitable for
deep freeze usage.
• Frozen food must be used
immediately after they are thawed
and they should never be re-frozen.
• Please observe the following
instructions to obtain the best results.
1. Do not freeze too large quantities
of food at one time. The quality of
the food is best preserved when it
is frozen right through to the core as
quickly as possible.
2. Placing warm food into the freezer
compartment causes the cooling
system to operate continuously until
the food is frozen solid.
3. Take special care not to mix already
frozen food and fresh food.
Recommendations for
preservation of frozen food
• Prepacked commercially frozen
food should be stored in accordance
with the frozen food manufacturer's
instructions for a ( 4 star)
frozen food storage compartment.
• To ensure that the high quality
achieved by the frozen food
manufacturer and the food retailer is
maintained, the following should be
remembered:
1. Put packages in the freezer as quickly
as possible after purchase.
2. Ensure that contents are labeled and
dated.
3. Do not exceed "Use By", "Best
Before" dates on the packaging.

Deep-freeze information
Food must be frozen as rapidly as
possible when they are put 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.

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.
Remove the door shelves that align
with the crisper before removing the
crispers. You can remove the crispers
as illustrated in the figure.

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.
Blue light
Foodstuff stored in the crispers that
are enlightened with a blue light
continue their photosynthesis by
means of the wavelength effect of blue
light and thus, preserve their freshness
and increase their vitamin content.

EN
Telescopic Drawer
Pay attention not to squeeze any parts
of your body such as hands, feet and
etc. between the movable parts while
the drawer is in use in order to avoid
any injury.
You can remove the partition in the
drawer as illustrated when you want to
clean it.
You can remove the drawers only for
