General features of your appliance
1. When the doors are closed position, please check if there are any gaps between door
gasket and the body. If there are any gaps, please x it.
2. When the freezer door is closed, there will be vacuum. Do not force to open the door again
immediately. Please wait until the pressure is stabilized.
3. Thanks to patented trizbar design, fracture risk occurring due to misuse by users, which is
common for opponent manufacturers has been eliminated.
4. Air circulation of cooler and freezer compartments are not mixed with other compartments
thanks to new No-Frost technology. By this smart solution, no odoXr passes through
compartments, and vegetables remain fresh for longer periods.
5. The fan ensuring energy efciency maintains air circulation by running independently
even if the compressor does not run. Thus, a uniform and balanced air circulation is
created between cooler shelves.
6. Hidden LEDs and hidden air conduit holes have given the cooler an aesthetical appearance.
7. Through specic air conduit design, fans give the cooler cold air from multiple outlets on
all shelf levels.
8. By special patented application, display edges and corners form a smooth surface
against the door and ensure a perfect aesthetical appearance. Thanks to touch-operated
electronic instrument panel, temperature controls can be carried out easily and an even
view is ensured aesthetically.
9. A LED application that light on gradually instead of an sudden ashing is available in
interior body illumination. The LEDs lights up to 100% brightness within a few seconds
after the door is opened.
10. Telescopic rail used in chiller compartment ensures that the chiller operates easily and
quietly.
11. In order to avoid the chiller from slamming the door when it stays open, a self-closing
function has been provided to the chiller. This function has eliminated the risk of staying
open for the chiller.
12. Anti-nger inox doors never leave nger prints thanks to a special sheet layer coated
over stainless door sheet.

BEFORE USING YOUR FRIDGE
1.6 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 2 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.

2.3 Warnings about Temperature Adjustments
• Your temperature adjustments will not be deleted when an energy breakdown occurs.
• It is not recommended that you operate your fridge in environments colder than 10°C in
terms of its efciency.
• Temperature adjustments should be made according to the frequency of door openings,
the quantity of food kept inside the fridge and ambient temperature of the place of your
fridge.
• Your fridge should be operated up to 24 hours according to the ambient temperature
without interruption after being plugged in to be completely cooled. Do not open doors
of your fridge frequently and do not place much food inside it in this period.
