PART 3. ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
Refrigerator Compartment
• To reduce humidity and consequent increase of frost never place liquids in
unsealed containers in the refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest
parts of the evaporator and in time will require more frequent defrosting.
• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at
room temperature and should be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in
the refrigerator compartment.
• Nothing should touch to refrigerator back wall as it will cause frost and the
packages can stick here. Do not open the refrigerator door too frequently.
• Arrange the meat and cleaned fish (wrapped in packages or sheets of plastic)
which you will use in 1-2 days.
• You can put the fruits and vegetables into crisper without packing.
EN - 9 -
Freezer Compartment
• The use of freezer is, storing of deep-frozen or frozen food for long periods of time
and making ice cubes.
• Do not put fresh and warm food to the freezer door shelves to be frozen. Only use
for storage of frozen food.
• Do not put fresh and warm food with frozen food side by side as it can thaw the
frozen food.
• While freezing fresh food (i.e. meat, fish and mincemeat) divide them in parts you
will use in one time.
• For storing the frozen food; the instructions shown on frozen food packages
should always be followed carefully and if no information is provided food should
not be stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
• When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable
temperatures and that the packing is intact.
• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the
quality of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the
shortest possible time.
• If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling it is
probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that
the contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, thermostat
setting, how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time
required to transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the
instructions printed on the package and never exceed the maximum storage life
indicated.
• While freezing food; Maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in
24 hours is indicated on the appliance label.
• For optimum appliance performance to reach maximum freezing capacity, turn the
thermostat knob to position max 24 hours before placing fresh food in the freezer.
• After placing fresh food in the freezer, 24 hours on max position is generally
sufficient, after 24 hours, do not need to set the thermostat knob to position max.
• Attention; In order to save energy, When freezing small amounts of food, do not
need to set the thermostat knob to position max.
• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and the food which is wanted
to freeze) more quickly because of the freezing room’s greater freezing power.
Fast freezing shelves are the middle drawers of the freezer compartment

water Do not clean them in the dishwasher.
• Clean the condenser with a broom at least twice a year.
This will help you to save on energy costs and increase
productivity.
THE POWER SUPPLY MUST BE DISCONNECTED.
Defrosting refrigerator compartment
• Defrosting occurs fully automatically in refrigerator compartment during operation;
the defrosted water collected by the evaporating tray and evaporates automatically.
• The evaporating tray and water drain hole (back of the refrigerator crisper shelf)
should be cleaned periodically to prevent the water from collecting on the bottom
of the refrigerator instead of flowing out.
EN - 11 -
Defrosting the Freezer Compartment
• The frost, which covers the shelves of the freezer compartment, should be removed periodically.
• Do not use sharp metal objects for this operation. They could puncture the
refrigerator circuit and cause irreparable damage to the unit. Use the plastic
scraper provided.
• When there is more than 5 mm of frost on the shelves, defrosting must be carried
out.
• Before defrosting, place the frozen food in a cool place after wrapping it in sheets
of newspaper (this will help the food to maintain it’s tempertaure for longer).
• To accelerate the defrosting process, place one or more bowls of warm water in
the freezer compartment.
• Dry the inside of the compartment with a sponge or a clean cloth.
• Once the unit has been defrosted, place the food into freezer and remember to
consume it in a short period of time.
