Do not use sharp metal objects for this operation. They could puncture the refrigerator circuit and cause irreparable damage to the unit.

ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE

Fridge compartment

To reduce humidity and the consequent increase in frost, never place liquids in unsealed containers in the fridge compartment. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of the evaporating liquid and in time will more frequent defrosting will be required.
Never place warm food in the fridge compartment. Warm food should be allowed to cool at room temperature and should be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the fridge compartment.
Nothing should touch the back wall of the appliance as it will cause frost and packaging to stick to it. Do not open the fridge door too frequently.
Arrange meat and cleaned fish (wrapped in packages or sheets of plastic) which you intend to use in 1-2 days, in the bottom section of the fridge compartment.
Store fruit and vegetable items lose in the crisper containers.

Position different food in different compartments according to the below table

Refrigerator compartments	Type of food
Door or balconies of the fridge compartment	*Food with natural preservatives,

such as jams, juices, drinks, condiments

Do not store perishable foods
Crisper drawer (salad drawer)| * Fruit, herbs, and vegetables should be placed separately in the crisper bin
Do not store bananas, onions, potatoes, or garlic in the refrigerator
Fridge shelf – bottom Chiller (box/drawer)| Raw meat, poultry, fish (for short-term storage)
---|---
Fridge shelf – middle| Dairy products, eggs
Fridge shelf-top| * Foods that do not need cooking, such as ready-to-eat foods, deli meats, leftovers

The best storage time in the refrigerator with the recommended setting follows:

Food	Maximum storage time	How and where to store
Vegetables and fruits	1 week	Vegetable bin
Meat and fish	2-3 days	Wrap in plastic foil, bags, or in a meat container

Freezer compartment

The use of a freezer is, storing deep-frozen or frozen foods for long periods of time and making ice cubes.
To freeze fresh food, ensure that as much of the surface as possible of food to be frozen is in contact with the cooling surface.
Do not put fresh food with frozen on the side by side as it can thaw the frozen food.
While freezing fresh foods(i.e meat, fish, and mincemeat), divide them into parts you will use at one time.
Once the unit has been defrosted replace the foods in the freezer and remember to consume them in a short period of time.
Never place warm food in the freezer compartment. As it will disturb the frozen foods.
For storing the frozen foods; the instructions shown on frozen food packages should always be followed carefully and if no information is provided food should not be stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
When buying frozen foods ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures and that the packing is intact.
Frozen foods should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the shortest
possible time.
If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling it is probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the contents have deteriorated.
Not that; if you want to open it again immediately after closing the freezer door, it will not be opened easily. It’s quite normal! After reaching the equilibrium condition, the door will be opened easily.
The storage life of frozen foods depends on the room temperature, 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 package and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
If the drawers are removed, the stored food should not encroach on the space between the load limit shown and the door. This is the only way to ensure the correct function of the freezer. Load limit line is also used in energy consumption declaration.

Recommended location of each type of food in different compartments of the freezer (if included in your appliance – and taking into account the actual number of drawers/shelves in the freezer):

Refrigerator compartments	Type of food
Bottom drawer/shelf	raw meat, poultry, fish
Middle drawer/shelf	frozen vegetables, chips
Top drawer/shelf	ice cream, frozen fruit, frozen baked goods

Defrosting fridge compartment

Defrosting occurs automatically in the refrigerator compartment during operation; the water is collected by the evaporation tray and evaporates automatically.
The evaporation tray and the water drain hole should be cleaned periodically with the defrost drain plug to prevent the water from collecting at the bottom of the refrigerator
You can also clean the drain hole by pouring 1/2 glass of water down it.

Defrosting freezer compartment
The frost, accumulated in the freezer compartment, should be removed periodically (Use the plastic scraper provided). The freezer compartment should be cleaned in the same way as the refrigerator compartment, with the defrost function of the compartment at least twice a year.

For this

The day before you defrost, set the thermostat dial to the “5” position to freeze the food completely.
During defrosting, frozen food should be wrapped in several layers of paper and kept in a cool place. The inevitable rise in temperature will shorten its storage life. Remember to use this food within a relatively short period of time.
Set the thermostat knob to position “off” or unplug the unit. Leave the door open until the unit is completely defrosted.
To accelerate the defrosting process, one or more bowls of warm water can be placed in the freezer compartment.
Dry the inside of the unit carefully and set the thermostat knob to the MAX position.
