Crisper humidity control sliders

Using the crisper humidity control sliders

Crisper of your refrigerator is designed specially to keep your vegetables fresh 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.

Turbo Cooling Fan

“Turbo cooling fan is designed to ensure homogenous distribution and circulation of the cold air inside your refrigerator. Operation time of the turbo cooling fan may vary depending on the properties of your product. While the turbo fan works only with the compressor in some products, the control system determines its operation time in some products

in accordance with the cooling requirement. This situation is explained on a separate warning and information label attached on the refrigerator in products equipped with turbo fans running under different conditions than the compressor.”

* OPTIONAL

17 EN

Using the rotary crisper (in some models)

The crisper of your refrigerator which opens with a rotating movement is designed specially to provide ease of usage and allow you to store more vegetables and fruits (large volume) you buy during large shopping.

When you grab and pull the handle on the lower left hand side of the crisper, it will rotate from left to right and open easily. The separator in the crisper will allow you to separate the vegetables and fruits according to their types and prevent them from crushing.
