Setting the fridge compartment temperature

When you want to change your refrigerator’s temperature settings, you need to press the “Fridge compartment temperature adjustment button” to make the fridge compartment temperature adjustment. The fridge compartment temperature can be set to cooler degrees every time you press on the button (such as 8, 6, 4, 2, 8, …).

Setting the freezer compartment temperature

When you want to change your refrigerator’s temperature settings, you need to press the “Freezer compartment temperature adjustment button” to make the freezer compartment temperature adjustment. The freezer compartment temperature can be set to cooler degrees every time you press on the button (such as, -18, -20, -22, -24, -18, …).

Fast Freeze function

You can use this function of your refrigerator to rapidly freeze the food you put into the freezer compartment for the first time or to obtain ice more quickly. If you want to keep your food frozen for a long period, first apply the fast freeze function to them. Fast freeze is the healthiest way of keeping the food for a long time. Temperature of your refrigerator’s freezer compartment drops down to -27°C during fast freeze process. You must read Part 4 carefully before applying

fast freeze process to your food.

16

When you want to use the “Fast Freeze” function, press the fast freeze button. Fast freeze indicator lights up when you press the button. Freezer Compartment Temperature Adjustment Indicator turns to -27°C. While fast freeze function is activated, this compartment reaches colder degrees than the adjusted values and all of

the freezer compartment temperature indicators may light up. Fast Freeze function lasts for maximum 24 hours. Your refrigerator will automatically exit the fast freeze mode once the fast freeze process is completed, fast freeze indicator lamp will go off and the refrigerator will turn back to the previously adjusted temperatures. Freezer compartment temperature indicators will gradually go off until the

adjusted temperature value is attained.

If you have unintentionally switched your refrigerator to fast freeze mode or if you want to cancel the process, just press the “Fast Freeze” button again to exit the fast freeze mode.

If you want to freeze large amounts of fresh food, press the fast freeze button 24 hours before putting the food into the freezer compartment.

EN

Quick cool function

This function can be used for food placed in the fridge compartment and desired to be cooled down rapidly. Press quick cool button to activate the function. During this process, the quick cool indicator will light up and fridge compartment temperature adjustment indicator will turn into 1°C. While

quick cool function is activated, this compartment reaches colder degrees than the adjusted values. Meanwhile, all of the temperature indicators of the fridge compartment may light up. Quick cool process will take about 2

hours and at the end of this period, the quick cool indicator lamp will go off, and the refrigerator will turn back to the previously adjusted temperatures.

Egg tray

You can install the egg holder to the desired door or body shelf.

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.

Multi-purpose Shelf, Canned Drink and Shelter

(May not be available in some models.)

You may use your multi-purpose shelf for foods in appropriate dimensions as seen in the figure.

You may use this compartment to preserve foods and drinks that can fit into the shelter. (Ketchup, mayonnaise, etc.)

You may use the canned drink shelf by laying your beverages horizontally.

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.

Ion:

Air is ionized by means of the ionizer system in the fridge compartment air duct. Thanks to this system, air-borne bacteria and particles that cause odor are removed.
