Blue light
(in some models)
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.
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 lifted upwards at the second stop point, the body shelf will be released.
The shelf should be hold 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.

Chiller compartment
If you wish to use the storage container under the shelf as the Chiller compartment, the storage container under the shelf should be placed as shown in the picture.
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.
Crisper humidity control sliders
Crisper of your refrigerator is designed 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.
