ENERGY-SAVING TIPS
• Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room far away from any heat source (e.g. radiator, cooker, etc.) and in a place not exposed directly to the sun. If required, use an insulating plate.
• To guarantee adequate ventilation follow installation instructions.
• Insufficient ventilation on back of the product increases energy consumption and decreases cooling efficiency.
• The internal temperatures of the appliance may be affected by the ambient temperature, frequency of door opening, as well as location of the appliance. Temperature setting should take into consideration these factors.
• Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before placing in the appliance.
• Do not obstruct the fan (if available) with food items.
• After placing the food check if the door of compartments closes properly, especially the freezer door.
• Reduce to a minimum door opening.
• When thawing frozen food, place them in the refrigerator. The low temperature of the frozen products cools the food in the refrigerator.
• Appliances could have special compartments (Fresh Food Compartment, Zero Degree Box,...). In case not differently specified in the specific booklet of product, they can be removed, maintaining equivalent performances.
• Positioning of the shelves in the refrigerator has no impact on the efficient usage of energy. Food should be placed on the shelves in such way to ensure proper air circulation (food should not touch each other and distance between food and rear wall should be kept).
• You can increase storage capacity of frozen food by removing baskets and, if present, Stop Frost shelve, maintaining an equivalent energy consumption.
• Damaged gasket must be replaced as soon as possible.
• High energy class products are fitted with highefficiency motors that remain operational for longer, but have a low power consumption. Do not worry if the engine continues to run for longer periods.
• "Night sensor" and "Screensaver" in active mode and "Door Handle LEDs" in OFF position will lead to energy saving.

BEFORE USING YOUR FRIDGE
General information about new NO FROST technology
New No-Frost fridges differ from other static fridges in their operating principle. In normal fridges, the humidity entering the fridge in the door openings and the humidity of the food causes freezing in the freezer compartment. To defrost the snow and ice in the freezer department, you should turn off the fridge, take the food that needs to be kept in a constant temperature off the fridge, and remove the ice gathered in the freezer department periodically. The situation in the freezer compartment is completely different in no-frost fridges. Dry and cool air is blown through the freezer compartments via fan. Cold air dispersed homogeneously between the shelves cools all your food equally and uniformly, thus prevents humidity and freezing. The freezer compartment is cooled by statically. The air is distributed homogeneously between the racks in the cooling section with the fan, and all your foods can be cooled evenly and properly. As there is no air passage between the sections, the smells on the 3 different parts of your refrigerator do not mix. Therefore your New No-Frost fridge allows you ease of use, besides its huge volume and stylish appearance.

containers or covered with appropriate material.
• Hot food and beverages should be cooled to room temperature before being placed in the fridge.
• Vegetables and fruits can be placed into crisper by packaging with clean and if possible, spongy plastic
bags.
• Storing fruits and vegetables seperately helps ethylene sensitive vegetables (green leafy, broccoli, carrot
etc.) not to affect ethylene releaser fruits (banana, peach, apricot, fig etc.)
• You should not put wet vegetables into the refrigerator.
• Storage time for all food produces depends on food initial quality and uninterrupted refrigeration cycle
before refrigerator storage.
• You should not store meat products and fruits&vegetables in the same places not to contaminate.
Water leaking in meat can be contamination in the refrigerator. You should package meat products and clean leakages on the shelves.
• You should not put food in front of air flow passage.
• Storage time for all food produces depends on food initial quality and uninterrupted refrigeration cycle
before refrigerator storage.
• You should consume packaged foods until expire date.
Important Note:
• Cover the liquid and stews when you put them on fridge. Otherwise, the humidity amount inside the
fridge increases. And, this causes the fridge to operate more. Covering the food and beverages also allow you to protect their taste and flavour.
• Potatoes, onion and garlic shouldn’t be kept in the fridge. Some suggestions on the placing and storing
of your food in the fridge compartment are supplied below.

FREEZER COMPARTMENT
• The freezer compartment is used for storing frozen foods for a long time or for producing ice.
• If you leave the door of freezer open for a long time, frosting will appear on the lower stage of freezer.
Thus, air circulation will be obstructed. In order to avoid this, first unplug the cord and wait until thawed. After ice melts, you should clean the freezer.
• You can take off baskets, cover, etc. to increase storing volume of freezer.
• Volume specified on the product label shows the value without baskets, covers, etc.
IMPORTANT
Please never refreeze frozen food after thawing them. It may be hazardous to your health as it may lead to food poisoning.
• Do not place hot food to the freezer before cooling them. This may cause other frozen food in the
freezer to get decayed.
• When buying frozen food, make sure that it was frozen under appropriate conditions and its package is
not torn.
• In case of humidification on package of frozen food and a smelly odour, food may have been stored under
inappropriate conditions beforehand and it may have gotten decayed. Do not buy those kinds of food.
• Storing time for frozen food may differ according to the ambient temperature, frequency of door
openings, thermostat adjustments, type of food and the time between the buying of the food and placing of the food in the freezer. Always follow instructions on the package and do not exceed storing period.
• Note: If frozen food taken out of freezer of refrigerator is placed into bottom compartment one day
before, it promotes refrigerator by preserving its temperature there, so energy will be saved. If you put the material in the deep freeze to an open area, energy loss occurs.
Some spices in cooked food (aniseed, basil, dill, vinegar, spice mix, ginger, garlic, onion, mustard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, bologna sausage etc.) may have a foul taste when stored for a long time. Therefore, frozen food should be spiced just a little or spice should be added after the food is thawed. The storing time for the food depends on the oil used. Margarines, veal fat, olive oil and butter are suitable, peanut oil and lard are not suitable. Cooked food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic containers, other food should be frozen wrapped in plastic foil or in plastic bags. Some suggestions on the placing and storing of your food in the freezer compartment are supplied on the following pages.
Icebox
• Remove the icebox by grasping its front side.
• Fill ¾ of icebox with water and insert it.
• You can take ice after 2 hours approximately. You can
service by extracting icebox.
Note: When placing the icebox after filling with water, make sure that you position it horizontally without tilting. Otherwise, water inside icebox may pour on the basket.

Check Warnings; If your fridge is not operating;
• Is there any electrical faults?
• Is your appliance plugged?
• Is the fuse of the receptacle that the plug is plugged or the main fuse blown?
• Is there any fault in the socket? Examine this by plugging your fridge into a socket outlet which you are sure that is working.
If your fridge is operating too loudly Normal Noises; Cracking (Ice cracking) Noise:
• During automatic defrosting.
• When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).
Short cracking: Heard when the thermostat switches the compressor on/off. Valve sound: Ticking sound is normal when your refrigerator runs. This sound is released from a valve
behind your refrigerator. Vacuuming sound: After your refrigerator’s doors are opened and closed, a short sound may be heard due to pressure difference. That is normal exactly. Normal motor noise: This noise means that the compressor operates normally. Compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is activated.
Bubbling noise and splash: This noise is caused by the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of the system. Water flow noise: Normal flow noise of water flowing to the evaporation container during defrosting.
This noise can be heard during defrosting. Air blow noise: Normal fan noise. This noise can be heard in No-Frost fridge during normal operation of the system due to the circulation of air.
If humidity builds up inside the fridge;
• Are all food packed properly? Are the containers dried before placing them in the fridge?
• Are the fridge doors opened frequently? Humidity of the room gets in the fridge when the doors are opened. Humidity build up will be faster when you open the doors more frequently, especially if the humidity of the room is high.
If the doors are not opened and closed properly;
• Do the food packages prevent closing of the door?
• Are the door compartments, shelves and drawers placed properly?
• Are door joints broken or torn?
• Is your fridge on a level surface?
IMPORTANT NOTES:
• After sudden power breakdowns or after unplugging the appliance, Thermal protector will cut off the power of compressor temporarily because the gas in the cooling system is not stabilized yet. Your fridge will start after 4 or 5 minutes, there is nothing to worry about.
• If you will not use your fridge for a long time (e.g. in summer holidays) unplug it. After defrosting, clean your fridge and leave the door open to prevent humidity and smell.
