INSTALLING AND OPERATING YOUR FRIDGE
Before starting to use your fridge, you should pay attention to the following points:
- Operating voltage for your fridge is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
- Mains cord of your fridge has a grounded plug. This plug should be used with a grounded receptacle that has a 13 ampere fuse minimum. If you don’t have a receptacle confirming with this, please have it done by a qualified electrician.
- Caple do not take the responsibility for damages that occur due to ungrounded usage.
- Place your fridge in a place that would not be exposed to direct sunlight.
- Your appliance should be at least 50 cm away from hobs, Gas ovens and heater cores, and should be at least 5 cm away from electrical ovens.
- Your fridge should never be used outdoors or left under the rain.
- When your fridge is placed next to a deep freezer, there should be at least 2 cm between them to prevent humidity on the outer surface.
- Do not place anything on your fridge, and install your fridge in a suitable place so that at least 15 cm is available on the upper side.
- The adjustable front legs should be stabilized at an appropriate height to allow your fridge to operate in a stable and proper way. You can adjust the legs by turning them clockwise (or in the opposite direction). This should be done before placing food in the fridge.

BEFORE USING YOUR FRIDGE
- When it is operated for the first time or after transportation, keep your fridge in the upright position for 12 hours and plug it in to allow efficient operation. Otherwise, you may damage the compressor.
- Your fridge may have a smell when it is operated for the first time; This is normal and the smell will fade away when your fridge starts to cool.
FROST FREE TECHNOLOGY
Fridges with Frost free technology have a different working system than static fridges. In normal fridges, humid air that enters into the fridge and the water vapor that comes out from the foods, accumulates frost formation in the freezer compartment. In order to melt this frost, in other words defrost, the fridge has to be stopped. During the stopping period, to keep the foods cold, the user must remove all foods from the fridge and then clear all the ice during this period.
In the fridges with frost free technology, the situation in the freezer compartment is completely different. With the aid of the fan, cold and dry air is blown out through many points into the freezer compartment. As a result of the blown cold air, even in the spaces between shelves, foods are frozen equally and correctly. On the other hand there will also be no frost formation.
In the refrigerator compartment, there will be nearly the same configuration as the freezer compartment. Air, that is emitted with the fan, located at the top of refrigerator compartment, is cooled while passing through the gap behind the air duct. At the same time, air is blown out through the holes on the air duct so that the cooling process is successfully completed in the refrigerator compartment. Holes on the air duct are designed such that the air distribution becomes homogeneous in this compartment.
As there is no air passage between freezer and refrigerator compartment, there will be no odor mixing. As a result of this, your fridge with new cooling technology, gives you ease of use as well as the huge volume and aesthetic appearance.
