BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
Information about New Generation Cooling Technology
Fridges with new generation cooling technology have a different working system than static fridges. In normal fridges, humid air that enters into fridge and the water vapor that comes out from the foods, accumulates frost formation in 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, user has to extract the food to outside of fridge and user has to clear the ice during this period.
In the fridges with new generation cooling technology, situation in the freezer compartment is completely different. With the aid of fan, cold and dry air is blown out through many points into the freezer compartment. As a result of the homogenously blown cold air, even in the spaces between shelves, foods are frozen equally and correctly. On the other hand there will be no frost formation.
In the refrigerator compartment, there will be nearly same
conguration with 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 cooling process is successfully completed in the refrigerator compartment. Holes on the air duct are designed such that the air distribution becomes homogenous in this compartment.
As there is no air passage between freezer and refrigerator compartment, there will be no odor mixing.
As a result of these, your fridge with new generation cooling technology, gives you, ease of use beside the huge volume and esthetic appearance.

ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
Refrigerator compartment
For normal operating conditions, adjusting the temperature value of the cooler partition of the fridge to 4°C will be enough.
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 on the back wall as it will cause frost and the packages can stick on the back wall. Do not open the refrigerator door too frequently.
• Arrange the meat and cleaned sh(wrapped in packages or sheets
of plastic) which you will use in 1-2 days,in the bottom section of the refrigerator compartment(that is above the crisper) as this is the coldest section and will ensure the best storing conditions.
You can put the fruits and vegetables into crisper without packing.
Some recommendations have been specied below for the placement
and storage of your food in the cooling compartment.

ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
Freezer compartment
Please use the deep freeze compartment of your refrigerator for storing the frozen food for a long time and for producing ice.
To get maximum capacity for freezer compartment, please just use glass shelves for upper and middle section. For bottom section, please use lower basket.
Please do not place the food you shall newly freeze nearby the already frozen food.
• You should freeze the food to be frozen (meat, minced meat, sh,
etc.) by dividing them into portions in such a way that they can be consumed once.
Please do not refreeze the frozen food once they are thawed. It may pose a danger for your health since it might cause problems such as food poisoning.
Do not place the hot meals in your deep freeze before they become cold. You would cause the other food frozen beforehand in the deep
freeze to become putreed.
When you buy frozen food, makes sure that they were frozen under
appropriate conditions and the package is not torn.
While storing the frozen food, the storage conditions on the package should certainly be observed. If there is not any explanation, the food must be consumed within the shortest time possible.
• If there had been humidication in the frozen food package and it
has a foul smell, the food might have been stored under unsuitable conditions previously and gone rotten. Do not purchase this type of foods!
The storage durations of frozen food change depending on the ambient temperature, the frequent opening and closing of the doors, thermostat settings, food type and the time elapsed from the purchase time of the food to the time it is placed into the freezer. Always abide by the instructions on the package and never exceed the indicated storage duration.
During long lasting power failures, please do not open the door of the deep freeze compartment. Your refrigerator shall preserve your frozen food for about 18 hours in ambient temperatures of 25°C and for about 13 hours in ambient temperatures of 32°C. This value will decrease under higher ambient temperatures. During longer power failures, do not refreeze your food and consume them as soon as possible.

ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
Not that; if you want to open again immediately after closing the
freezer door, it will not be opened easily. It’s quite normal! After reaching equilibrium condition, the door will be opened easily.
Important note:
• Frozen foods, when thawed, should be cooked just like fresh foods. If they are not cooked after being thawed they must NEVER be re­frozen.
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. Therefore, the frozen food should be added little amount of spices or the desired spice should be added after the food has been thawed.
The storage period of food is dependent on the oil used. The suitable oils are margarine, calf fat, olive oil and butter and the unsuitable oils are peanut oil and pig fat.
The food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic cups and the other food should be frozen in plastic folios or bags.
Some recommendations have been specied on pages 27, 28 and 29 for
the placement and storage of your food in the deep freeze compartment.

TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY
1. Install the appliance in a cool, well ventilated room , but not in direct sunlight and not near a heat source (radiator, cooker.. etc). Otherwise use an insulating plate.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool down outside the appliance.
3. When thawing frozen food, place it in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature of the frozen food will help to cool the refrigerator compartment when it is thawing. This will help to save energy. If the frozen food is put out, it results in a waste of energy.
4. Cover drinks or other liquids when placing them in the appliance Otherwise humidity increases in the appliance. Therefore, the working time gets longer. Also covering drinks and other liquids helps to preserve smell and taste.
5. Try to avoid keeping the doors open for long periods or opening the doors too frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
6. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (crisper, chiller ...etc ) closed
7. Door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
