Avoiding bad odours Materials that may cause odour are not used in the production of our refrigerators.
However, due to inappropriate food preserving conditions and not cleaning the inner surface of the refrigerator as required can bring forth the problem of odour.
Pay attention to following to avoid this problem:

  • Keeping the refrigerator clean is important. Food residuals, stains, etc. can cause odour.
  • Therefore, clean the refrigerator with carbonate dissolved in water every 15 days. Never use detergents or soap.
  • Keep the food in closed containers. Microorganisms spreading out from uncovered containers can cause unpleasant odours.
  • Never keep the food that have expired best before dates and spoiled in the refrigerator
