3 USING THE APPLIANCE
3.1 Information about New Generation
Cooling Technology
Fridges with new-generation cooling
technology have a
different operating
system to static fridges.
Other (static) fridges
may experience a build
up of ice in the freezer
compartment due to
door openings and
humidity in the food. In
such fridges, regular
defrosting is required;
the fridge must be
switched off, the frozen
food moved to a
suitable container and
the ice which has
formed in the freezer
compartment removed.
In fridges with newgeneration cooling
technology, a fan
blows dry cold air evenly throughout the
fridge and freezer compartments. The cold
air cools your food evenly and uniformly,
preventing humidity and ice build-up.
In the refrigerator compartment, air
blown by the fan, located at the top of
the refrigerator compartment, is cooled
while passing through the gap behind
the air duct. At the same time, the air is
blown out through the holes in the air duct,
evenly spreading cool air throughout the
refrigerator compartment.
There is no air passage between the
freezer and refrigerator compartments,
therefore preventing the mixing of odours.
As a result, your fridge, with newgeneration cooling technology, provides
you with ease of use as well as a huge
volume and aesthetic appearance.

• It is not recommended that you operate
your fridge in environments colder than
10°C in terms of its efciency.
• Do not start another adjustment while you
are already making an adjustment.
• Temperature adjustments should be
made according to the frequency of door
openings, the quantity of food kept inside
the fridge and the ambient temperature in
the location of your fridge.
• In order to allow your fridge to reach
the operating temperature after being
connected to mains, do not open the
doors frequently or place large quantities
of food in the fridge. Please note that,
depending on the ambient temperature,
it may take 24 hours for your fridge to
reach the operating temperature.
• A 5 minute delay function is applied
to prevent damage to the compressor
of your fridge when connecting or
disconnecting to mains, or when an
energy breakdown occurs. Your fridge
will begin to operate normally after 5
minutes.
EN - 11
• Your appliance is designed to operate in
the ambient temperature (T/SN = 10°C
- 43°C) intervals stated in the standards,
according to the climate class displayed
on the information label. We do not
recommend operating your appliance out
of the stated temperature limits in terms
of cooling effectiveness.
Important installation instructions
This appliance is designed to work in
difcult climate conditions and is powered
with ‘Freezer Shield’ technology which
ensures that the frozen food in the
freezer will not defrost even if the ambient
temperature falls as low as -15 °C. So
you may then install your appliance in an
unheated room without having to worry
about frozen food in the freezer being
spoilt. When the ambient temperature
returns to normal, you may continue using
the appliance as usual.
The Turbo Fan (if available)
Do not block the air inlet and outlet
openings when storing food, otherwise air
circulation provided by the turbo fan will be
impaired.

• Fill the ice tray with water and place in
the freezer compartment.
• After the water has completely frozen,
you can twist the tray as shown below to
remove the ice cubes.
Chiller shelf
Keeping food in the Chiller compartment,
instead of the freezer or refrigerator
compartments, allows food to retain
freshness and avour for longer, while
preserving its fresh appearance. When the
Chiller tray becomes dirty, remove it and
wash with water.
(Water freezes at 0°C, but food containing
salt or sugar freezes at temperatures lower
EN - 12
than this).
The Chiller compartment is usually used
for storing foods such as raw sh, lightly
pickled food, rice, and so on.
Do not put food you want to freeze
or ice trays (to make ice) in the
Chiller compartment.
To remove the Chiller Shelf:
• Pull the chiller shelf towards you by
sliding it on the rails.
• Pull the chiller shelf up from the rail and
remove it from the fridge.
3.5.4 The Fresh Dial (In some models)
Fresh dial
If the crisper is full, the fresh dial located
in front of the crisper should be opened.
This allows the air in the crisper and the
humidity rate to be controlled, to increase
the life of food within.
The dial, located behind the shelf, must be
opened if any condensation is seen on the
glass shelf.
3.5.5 Adjustable Door Shelf (In some
models)

4 FOOD STORAGE
4.1 Refrigerator Compartment
• To reduce humidity and avoid the
consequent formation of frost, always
store liquids in sealed containers in the
refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in
the coldest parts of the evaporating liquid
and, in time, your appliance 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.
• Make sure no items are in direct contact
with the rear wall of the appliance as
frost will develop and packaging will stick
to it. Do not open the refrigerator door
frequently.
• We recommend that meat and clean sh
are loosely wrapped and stored on the
glass shelf just above the vegetable bin
where the air is cooler, as this provides
the best storage conditions.
• Store loose fruit and vegetable items in
the crisper containers.
• Store loose fruit and vegetables in the
crisper.
• Storing fruit and vegetables separately
helps prevent ethylene-sensitive
vegetables (green leaves, broccoli,
carrot, etc.) being affected by ethylenereleaser fruits (banana, peach, apricot,
g etc.).
• Do not put wet vegetables into the
refrigerator.
• Storage time for all food products
depends on the initial quality of the food
and an uninterrupted refrigeration cycle
before refrigerator storage.
• To avoid cross-contamination do not
store meat products with fruit and
vegetables. Water leaking from meat
may contaminate other products in the
refrigerator. You should package meat
EN - 14
products and clean any leakages on the
shelves.
• Do not put food in front of the air ow
passage.
• Consume packaged foods before the
recommended expiry date.
NOTE: Potatoes, onions and garlic
should not be stored in the refrigerator.
The table below is a quick guide to show
you the most efcient way to store the
major food groups in your refrigerator
compartment.

4.2 Freezer Compartment
• The freezer is used for storing frozen
food, freezing fresh food, and making ice
cubes.
• For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal
fresh food properly, that is the packaging
should be air tight and shouldn’t leak.
Special freezer bags, aluminum foil
polythene bags and plastic containers
are ideal.
• Do not store fresh food next to frozen
food as it can thaw the frozen food.
• Before freezing fresh food, divide it into
portions that can be consumed in one
sitting.
• Consume thawed frozen food within a
short period of time after defrosting
• Never place warm food in the freezer
compartment as it will thaw the frozen
food.
• Always follow the manufacturer's
instructions on food packaging when
storing frozen food. If no information is
provided food, should not be stored for
more than 3 months from the date of
purchase.
• When purchasing frozen food, make sure
that it has been stored under appropriate
conditions and that the packaging is not
damaged.
• Frozen food should be transported in
appropriate containers and placed in the
freezer as soon as possible.
• Do not purchase frozen food if the
packaging shows signs of humidity
and abnormal swelling. It is probable
that it has been stored at an unsuitable
temperature and that the contents have
deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen food depends
on the room temperature, the 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 packaging and
never exceed the maximum storage life
indicated.
• The 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, set the
refrigerator at 4 oC for 24 hours before
placing fresh food into the freezer.
• After placing fresh food into the freezer,
change the setting to 2 oC for 24 hours is
generally sufcient. After 24 hours, you
can reduce the setting if required.
• To use the maximum capacity of the
freezer compartment, use the glass
shelves for the upper and middle section,
and use the lower basket for the bottom
EN - 15
section.
• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and any other food which needs to
be frozen quickly) more quickly because of the freezing shelf’s greater freezing power.
Fast freezing shelf is the bottom drawer of the freezer compartment.
NOTE: If you attempt to open the freezer door immediately after closing it, you will nd
that it will not open easily. This is normal. Once equilibrium has been reached, the door will
open easily.
Important note:
• Never refreeze thawed frozen food.
• The taste of some spices found in cooked dishes (anise, basilica, watercress, vinegar,
assorted spices, ginger, garlic, onion, mustard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, etc.)
changes and they assume a strong taste when they are stored for a long period of time.
Therefore, add small amounts of spices to food to be frozen, or the desired spice should
be added after the food has thawed.
• The storage time of food is dependent on the type of oil used. Suitable oils are
margarine, calf fat, olive oil and butter. Unsuitable oils are peanut oil and pig fat.
• Food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic cups and other food should be frozen in
plastic folios or bags.

MEANING "Failure" Warning
WHY
WHAT TO DO
There is/are some part(s) out of
order or there is a failure in the
cooling process.
Call a service agent for assistance
as soon as possible.
If you are experiencing a problem with your
refrigerator, please check the following
before contacting the after-sales service.
Your refrigerator does not operate
Check if:
• Your fridge is plugged in and switched on
• The fuse has blown
• Is the temperature adjustment right?
• The socket is faulty. To check this, plug
another working appliance into the same
socket.
Your refrigerator is performing poorly
Check if:
• The appliance is overloaded
• The doors are closed properly
• There is any dust on the condenser
• There is an adequate distance between
the appliance and surrounding walls
Your refrigerator is operating noisily
The following noises can be heard during
normal operation of the appliance.
Cracking (ice cracking) noise occurs:
• During automatic defrosting.
• When the appliance is cooled
or warmed (due to expansion of
appliance material).
Clicking noise occurs: When the
thermostat switches the compressor on/
off.
Motor noise: Indicates the compressor
EN - 19
is operating normally. The compressor
may cause more noise for a short time
when it is rst activated.
Bubbling noise and splashing
occurs: Due to the ow of the
refrigerant in the tubes of the system.
Water owing noise occurs: Due
to water owing to the evaporation
container. This noise is normal during
defrosting.
Air blowing noise occurs: During
normal operation of the system due to
the circulation of air.
There is a build-up of humidity inside
the fridge
Check if:
• All food is packed properly. Containers
must be dry before being placed in the
fridge.
• The fridge doors are opened frequently.
Humidity of the room will enter the
fridge each time the doors are opened.
Humidity increases faster if the doors
are opened frequently, especially if the
humidity of the room is high.
• There is a build-up of water droplets
on the rear wall. This is normal after
automatic defrosting (in Static Models).
The doors are not opening or closing
properly
Check if:
• There is food or packaging preventing
the door from closing
• The door compartments, shelves and
drawers are placed properly
• The door gaskets are broken or torn
• Your fridge is level.
The edges of the fridge in contact with
the door joint are warm
Especially during summer (warm weather),
the surfaces in contact with the door joint
may become warmer during operation of
the compressor. This is normal.
Important Notes:
• In the case of a power failure, or if the
appliance is unplugged and plugged in
again, the gas in the cooling system of
your refrigerator will destabilise, causing
the compressor protective thermal
element to open. Your refrigerator will
start to operate normally after 5 minutes.
• If the appliance will not be used for a long
period of time (such as during holidays),
disconnect the plug. Defrost and clean
the refrigerator, leaving the door open
to prevent the formation of mildew and
odour.
• If the problem persists after you have
followed all the instructions above,
please consult the nearest Authorised
Service Centre.
• This appliance is designed for domestic
use and for the stated purposes only. It is
not suitable for commercial or common
use. If the consumer uses the appliance
in a way that does not comply with these
instructions, we emphasise that the
manufacturer and the dealer will not be
responsible for any repair or failure within
the guarantee period.

8 TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY
1. Install the appliance in a cool, wellventilated room, but not in direct sunlight
and not near a heat source (such as a
radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating
plate should be used.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool
before placing them inside the appliance.
3. Place thawing food in the refrigerator
compartment. The low temperature
of the frozen food will help cool the
refrigerator compartment while the food
is thawing. This will save energy. Frozen
food left to thaw outside of the appliance
will result in a waste of energy.
4. Drinks or other liquids should be
covered when inside the appliance. If
left uncovered, the humidity inside the
appliance will increase, therefore the
appliance uses more energy. Keeping
drinks and other liquids covered helps
preserve their smell and taste.
5. Avoid keeping the doors open for long
periods and opening the doors too
frequently as warm air will enter the
appliance and cause the compressor to
switch on unnecessarily often.
6. Keep the covers of the different
temperature compartments (such as the
crisper and chiller) closed.
7. The door gasket must be clean and
pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
