BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
General warnings
WARNING: Keep vantilation openings, in the appliance enclosure
or in the built-in structure, clear of obstruction.
WARNING: Do not use mechanical devices or other means to
accelerate the defrosting process, other than those recommended
by the manufacturer.
WARNING: Do not use electrical appliances inside the food storage
compartments of the appliance, unless they are of the type
recommended by the manufacturer.

WARNING: In order to avoid any hazards resulting from the instability
of the appliance, it must be fixed in accordance with the following
instructions:
• If your appliance uses R600a as a refrigerant (this information
will be provided on the label of the cooler) you should take care
during transportation and installation to prevent the cooler
elements from being damaged. R600a is an environmentally
friendly and natural gas, but it is explosive. In the event of a leak
due to damage of the cooler elements, move your fridge away
from open flames or heat sources and ventilate the room where
the appliance is located for a few minutes.
• While carrying and positioning the fridge, do not damage the
cooler gas circuit.

• If the socket does not match the refrigerator plug, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, a service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
• A specially grounded plug has been connected to the power
cable of your refrigerator. This plug should be used with a
specially grounded socket of 16 amperes. If there is no such
socket in your house, please have one installed by an authorised
electrician.
• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and
above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental

Installing and operating your fridge
Before using your fridge, you should pay attention to the following points:
• The operating voltage for your fridge is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
• The mains cord of your fridge is fitted with a grounded plug. This plug should be used
with a grounded receptacle that has a 16 ampere fuse minimum. If you don’t have a
receptacle which conforms to this, contact a qualified electrician.
• We do not accept responsibility for any damages that occur due to ungrounded
usage.
• Place your fridge where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Your appliance should be at least 50 cm away from stoves, gas ovens and heater
cores, and at least 5 cm away from electrical ovens.
• Your fridge should never be used outdoors or exposed to rain.
• When your fridge is placed next to a deep freezer, there should be at
least 2 cm between them to prevent humidity forming 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 of free space is available above it.
• Use the adjustable front legs to make sure your appliance is level and stable. You
can adjust the legs by turning them in either direction. This should be done before
placing food in the fridge.
• Before using your fridge, wipe all parts with a solution of warm water and a teaspoon
of so dium bicarbonate, th en rinse with c lean water and dry.
Place all parts in the fridge after cleaning.
• Install the plastic distance guide (the part with black vanes at the
rear) by turning it 90° (as shown in the figure) to prevent the
condenser from touching the wall.
• The refrigerator should be placed against a wall with a free space
not exceeding 75 mm.
EN - 5 -
Before Using your Fridge
• When using your fridge for the first time, or after transportation, keep
it in an upright position for at least 3 hours before plugging into the
mains. This allows efficient operation and prevents damage to 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.
Information on No-Frost technology
No-frost refrigerators differ from other static refrigerators
in their operating principle.
In normal fridges, the humidity entering the fridge due to
opening the door and the humidity inherent in the food
causes freezing in the freezer department. To defrost the
fr ost and ice in the freezer compartment, you are
periodically required to turn off the fridge, place the food
that needs to be kept frozen in a separately cooled
container and remove the ice gathered in the freezer
department.
The situation is completely different in no-frost fridges.
Dry and cold air is blown into the fridg e and freezer
compartments homogeneously and evenly from several
points via a blower fan. Cold air dispersed homogeneously
and evenly between the shelves cools all of your food
equally and uniformly, thus preventing humidity and
freezing.
Therefore your no-frost fridge allows you ease of use, in
addition to its huge capacity and stylish appearance.
