4 Preparation

4.1. What to do for energy saving

AConnecting the product to electronic energy-saving systems is harmful, as it may damage the product.

•Do not keep the refrigerator doors open for long periods.

•Do not place hot food or beverages into the refrigerator.

•Do not overfill the refrigerator; blocking the internal air flow will reduce cooling capacity.

•In order to store the maximum amount of food into the cooler compartment of your refrigerator, you should take out the upper drawers and place it onto the glass rack.

The declared energy consumption of your refrigerator was determined by taking out the cooler, ice tray and upper drawers in a way that will enable maximum storage. Using the below drawer when storing is strongly recommended. Energy saving function should be activated for best energy consumption.

•You should not block the airflow by putting food in front of the cooler fan. A space of minimum 3cm must be left in front of the protective fan wire when placing food.

•Depending on the product’s features; defrosting frozen foods in the cooler compartment will ensure energy saving and preserve food quality.

•Food should be stored using the drawers in the cooler compartment in order to ensure energy saving and protect food in better conditions.

•Food packages should not be in direct contact with the heat sensor located in the cooler compartment. If they are in contact with the sensor, energy consumption of the appliance might increase.

•Make sure the foods are not in contact with the cooler compartment temperature sensor described below.

4.2. First Use

Before using your refrigerator, make sure the necessary preparations are made in line with the instructions in “Safety and environment instructions” and “Installation” sections.

•Keep the product running with no food inside for 6 and do not open the door, unless absolutely necessary.

CA sound will be heard when the compressor is engaged. It is normal to hear sound even when the compressor is inactive, due to the compressed liquids and gasses in the cooling system.

CFront edges of the product might heat up. This is normal. These areas are designed to warm up in order to prevent condensation.

CIn some models indicator panel turns off automatically 5 minutes after the door closes. It will be reactivated when the door is open or any button is pressed.

5.14.Moisture controlled vegetable bin

(Optional)

With moisture control feature, moisture rates of vegetables and fruits are kept under control and ensures a longer freshness period for foods.

It is recommended to store leafed vegetables such as lettuce and spinach and similar vegetables prone to moisture loss not on their roots but in horizontal position into the vegetable bin as much as possible.

When placing the vegetables, place heavy and hard vegetables at the bottom and light and soft ones on the top, taking into account the specific weights of vegetables.

Do not leave vegetables in the vegetable bin in plastic bags. Leaving them in plastic bags causes vegetables to rot in a short time. In situations where contact with other vegetables is not preferred, use packaging materials such as paper that has a certain porosity in terms of hygiene.

Do not put fruits that have a high ethylene gas production such as pear, apricot, peach and particularly apple in the same vegetable bin with other vegetables and fruits. The ethylene gas coming out of these fruits might cause other vegetables and fruits to mature faster and rot in a shorter period of time.

5.15.Automatic ice machine

(Optional)

Automatic ice machine enables you to easily make ice in your refrigerator. In order to obtain ice from the ice machine, take out the water tank in the cooler compartment, fill it with water and fix it back.

First ice will be ready in about 2 hours in the ice machine drawer in the cooler compartment.

After placing the full water tank, you can obtain about 60-70 cubes of ice until it is fully empty.

If the water in the tank has waited for 2-3 weeks, it should be changed.

CIn products with automatic ice machine, you might hear a sound when pouring the ice. This sound is normal and is not a sign of failure.

5.23.Deep freezer details

As per the IEC 62552 standards, the freezer must have the capacity to freeze 4,5 kg of food items at -18°C or lower temperatures in 24 hours for each 100 litres of freezer compartment volume.

Food items can only be preserved for extended periods at or below temperature of -18°C . You can keep the foods fresh for months (in deep freezer at or below temperatures of 18°C ).

The food items to be frozen must not contact the already-frozen food inside to avoid partial defrosting.

Boil the vegetables and filter the water to extend the frozen storage time. Place the food in air-tight packages after filtering and place in the freezer. Bananas, tomatoes, lettuce, celery, boiled eggs, potatoes and similar food items should not be frozen. In case this food rots, only nutritional values and eating qualities will be negatively affected. A rotting threatening human health is not in question.

6 Maintenance and cleaning

Service life of the product is increase if it is regularly cleaned

•Keep the food in closed containers. Microorganisms spreading out from uncovered containers can cause unpleasant odours.

BWARNING: First unplug the product before cleaning your refrigerator.

•Never use any sharp and abrasive tools, soap, household cleaners, detergent and wax polish for cleaning.

•Dissolve one teaspoon of carbonate in half liter of water. Soak a cloth with the solution and wrung it thoroughly. Wipe the interior of the appliance with this cloth and the dry thoroughly.

•Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical items.

•Clean the door with a damp cloth. To remove door and body shelves, remove all of its contents. Remove door shelves by moving them upwards. After cleaning, slide them from top to bottom to install.

•Never use cleaning agents or water that contain chlorine to clean the outer surfaces and chromium coated parts of the product. Chlorine causes corrosion on such metal surfaces.

•Do not use sharp, abrasive tools, soap, household cleaning agents, detergents, kerosene, fuel oil, varnish etc. to prevent removal and deformation of the prints on the plastic part. Use lukewarm water and a soft cloth for cleaning and then wipe it dry.

6.1. Avoiding bad odors

Materials that may cause odor are not used in the production of our appliances. However, due to inappropriate food preserving conditions and not cleaning the inner surface of the appliance as required can bring forth the problem of odor.

Therefore, clean the refrigerator with carbonate dissolved in water every 15 days.

•Never keep the food that have expired best before dates and spoiled in the refrigerator.

6.2. Protecting the plastic surfaces

Clean with arm water immediately as the oil may cause damage on the surface when it is poured on plastic surfaces.

6.3. Door Glasses

Remove the protective foil on the glasses.

There is a coating on the surface of the glasses.This coating minimizes the stain build-up and helps to remove the possible stains and dirt easily.Glasses that are not protected with such a coating may be subject to persistent binding of air or water based organic

or inorganic dirt such as limescale, mineral salts, unburned hydrocarbons, metal oxides and silicones that can easily and quickly cause stains or material damage. Keeping the glass clean becomes too difficult despite the regular cleaning. Consequently, the appearance and the transparency of the glass deteriorates. Harsh and corrosive cleaning methods and compounds will intensify these defects and speed up the deterioration process.

Water-based cleaning products that are not alkaline and corrosive must be used for regular cleaning purposes.

Non-alkaline and non-corrosive materials must be used for cleaning so that the service life of this coating lasts for a long time.

These glasses are tempered to increase their durability against impacts and breaking.A safety film is also applied to their rear surfaces as an extra safety measure in order to prevent them from causing damage to their surrounding in case of a breakage.

*Alkali is a base that forms hydroxide ions (OH¯) when it is dissolved in water.

Li (Lithium), Na (Sodium), K (Potassium) Rb (Rubidium), Cs (Cesium) and artificial and radioactive Fr (Fan-sium) metals are called ALKALI METALS.
