Dual cooling system

Your refrigerator is equipped with two separate cooling systems to cool the fresh food compartment and freezer compartment.Thus, air and odour in the fresh food compartment and frozen food compartment do not get mixed. Thanks to these two separate cooling systems, cooling speed is much faster then other refrigerators.
Also additional power saving is provided since the defrosting is performed individually.

Freezing fresh food

Wrap the food or place them in a covered container before putting them in the refrigerator.
Hot food and beverages must cool down to the room temperature before putting them in the refrigerator.
The food that you want to freeze must be fresh and in good quality.
Divide the food into portions according to your family’s daily or meal based consumption needs.
Pack the food in an airtight manner to prevent them from drying even if they are going to be stored for a short time.
Materials to be used for packaging must be tear-proof and resistant to cold, humidity, oils and acids and they must also be airtight. This is redundant, as the sentence above has just mentioned all the reguirements of material placed in the freezer. All packaging must be completely sealed.
Frozen food must be used immediately after they are thawed and they should never be re- frozen.
Do not freeze excessively large quantities of food at one time.The quality of the food is best preserved when it is frozen right through to the core as quickly as possible.
Placing warm food into the freezer compartment causes the cooling system to operate continuously until the food is frozen solid.

Recommendations for preserving frozen food

Frozen food that you have purchased should be stored in accordance With the frozen stood manufacturer’s instructions for a ( 4star) frozen food storage compartment.
Note: To ensure the quality achieved by the frozen food manufacturer and food retailler is maintained, follow the steps listed below:

Put packets in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.
Make sure that the contents of the package are labeled and dated.
Check whether the “Use By” and “Best Before” dates on the packaging are exceed or not.

Placing the food

Freezer compartment shelves| Various frozen food such as meat, fish, ice cream, vegetables and etc.
---|---
Fridge compartment shelves| Food in pans, covered plates and closed containers
Fridge compartment door shelves| Small and packaged food or beverage (such as milk, fruit juice, beer and etc.)
Crisper| Vegetables and fruits
Fresh zone compartment| Delicatessen products (cheese, butter, salami and etc.)

Deep-freeze information

You can keep the freshness of food for many months (at -15°C / 5°F or lower temperatures in the deep freeze)
Divided the food into portions according to your family’s daily or meal-based consumption needs.
Pack the food in an airtight manner to prevent them from drying even if they are going to be stored for a short time.
Materials necessary for packaging:
Cold-resistant adhesive tape
Self-adhesive label
Rubber rings
pen

Removing door shelves

You can remove the door shelves to clean them.
Push the desired shelf up to remove it.
Do not remove the door shelf when there is food in it.
First, empty the food inside them.

Moving door rack optional

Moving door rack can be fixed in 3 different positions.
In order to move the rack, push the buttons on the side evenly. Rack will be movable.
Move the rack up or down.
When the rack is in the position that you want, release the buttons. Rack will be fixed again in the position where you have released the buttons.

Glass shelves

You can remove the glass shelves to clean them.
Be careful when removing the shelves since they are heavy

Chiller compartment (in some models)

Chiller compartments allow you to prepare the food for freezing. You can also use these compartments to store your food at a temperature a few degrees below the fridge compartment.
You can increase the inner volume of your refrigerator by removing any of the chiller compartments:

Pull the compartment towards yourself until it stops.
Lift the compartment about 1 cm up and pull it towards yourself to remove it from its seating

Crisper

The crisper of the refrigerator is designed specially to keep the vegetables fresh without losing their humidity. For this purpose, cool air circulation is intensified around the crisper in general. Remove the door shelves that stand against the crisper before removing the crispers.

Humidity-controlled crisper (FreSHelf)
(This feature is optional)

Humidity levels of the vegetables and fruit are kept under control with the feature of a humidity-controlled crisper and the food is ensured to stay fresh longer.
We recommend you place the leafy vegetables such as lettuce, spinach and vegetables that are sensitive to humidity loss, in a horizontal manner as much as possible inside the crisper, not on their roots in a vertical position.
While the vegetables are being placed, the specific gravity of the vegetables should be taken into consideration.
Heavy and hard vegetables should be put at the bottom of the crisper and lightweight and soft vegetables should be placed over them.
Never leave the vegetables inside the crisper in their bags. If the vegetables are left inside their bags, this will cause them to decompose in a short period of time. In case contacting with other vegetables is not preferred for hygiene concerns, use perforated paper and other similar packaging materials instead of a bag.
Do not place together the pear, apricot, peach, etc., and apple in particular which generate high levels of generation of ethylene gas in the same crisper with the other vegetables and fruit. The ethylene gas which is emitted by these fruits may cause the other fruits to ripen faster and decompose in a shorter time.

Ice container

The ice container is used to collect ice produced by the ice maker. Do not put water in it to make ice as it may break. The ice container is not used for storing food.
The ice machine may drop ice when the ice container is opened.

Butter & Cheese section (in some models)

Store food such as butter, cheese and margarine in this section

Egg holder (in some models)

You can install the egg holder to the desired door or body shelf.
Never keep the egg holder in the freezer compartment.

Movable middle section

The movable middle section is intended to prevent the cold air inside the refrigerator from escaping outside. Sealing is provided when the gaskets on the door press on the surface of the movable middle section while the fridge compartment doors are closed.
The movable middle section is closed when the left door of the fridge compartment is open. The movable middle section moves with the aid of the plastic part on the body while closing the door. Do not try to open it by hand.
When the rotating storage container is open, do not close the door of the refrigerator.
Do not overload the rotating storage container by placing a lot of materials in it.

Blue light (in some models)

Crispers of the refrigerator are illuminated with blue light. Food stored in the crispers continue their photosynthesis by means of the wavelength effect of blue light and thus, preserve their freshness and increase their vitamin content.

Ion (in some models)

Air is ionized by means of the ionizer system in the fridge compartment air duct. Thanks to this system, air-borne bacteria and odorising molecules removed from the air

Odor filter (in some models)

Odor filter in the air duct of the fridge compartment prevents build-up of unpleasant odors in the refrigerator.

Using internal water dispenser (in some models)

After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water filter, flush the water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the water dispenser lever for 5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds. Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing the dispenser paddle (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of 5-6 gallons.(about 20 liter) has been dispensed. This will flush air from the filter and water dispensing system, and prepare the water filter for use.
Additional flushing may be required in some households. As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the dispenser.
Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water. Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh supply.
After 5 minutes of continuous dispensing, the dispenser will stop dispensing water to avoid flooding.
To continue dispensing, press the dispenser paddle again.

Dispensing water

Hold a container under the dispenser spout while pressing the dispenser pad.
Release the dispenser pad to stop dispensing.
It is normal for the first few glasses of water taken from the dispenser to be warm.
If the water dispenser is not used for a long period of time, dispose of first few glasses of water to obtain fresh water.
During initial use, you will have to wait approximately 12 hours for the water to cool down. Take out the glass a little while after you pull the trigger.

For using water dispenser

Before using your fridge first time and after replacing your water filter, water dispenser may drip drops of water. To prevent water dripping or leaking from dispenser, please bleed the air from the system by dispensing 5-6 gallons (about 20 liter) of water through the water dispenser before the first use and every time after you change the water filter. This will remove any air trapped in the system and stop the water dispenser from leaking.
Checking coupler position and the straightness of water line at the back of the unit will be required if there’s an obstruction in water flow.
If your water dispenser is leaking just a few drops of water after you have dispensed some water, this is normal.

Ice Tray (in some models)

To get ice from the Ice Tray, fill the water tank in the fridge compartment with water up to the maximum level.
Ice cubes in the ice drawer may stick to each other and become a bulk due to hot and humid air in approximately 15 days. This is normal. If you cannot break the bulk apart, you can empty the ice container and again.
It is recommended to change the water in the water tank if it remains in the water tank for more then 2-3 weeks.
Strange noises you hear from the refrigerator at 120-minute intervals are the sounds of ice-making and pouring. This is normal.
If you do not want to make ice, press the Ice off icon to stop the icematic to save energy and prolong the service life of your refrigerator
It is normal that a few drops of water drop from the dispenser after you have taken water

Icematic and ice storage container (in some models)

Using the Icematic

Fill the Ice Tray with water and place it into its seat. Your ice will be ready approximately in two hours. Do not remove the Icematic from its seating to take ice.
Turn the knobs on the ice reservoirs clockwise by 90 degrees.
Ice cubes in the reservoirs will fall down into the ice storage container below.
You may take out the ice storage container and serve the ice cubes.
If you wish, you may keep the ice cubes in the ice storage container.

Ice storage container

Ice storage container is only intended for accumulating the ice cubes. Do not put water in it. Otherwise, it will break.
