USING THE APPLIANCE
Information on the Frost Free Technology
The Frost Free refrigerators have a different operating system to static
refrigerators.
In normal (static) fridges, the humidity entering the fridge due to opening
the door, and the humidity inherent in the food, causes frost build-up in the
freezer compartment. To defrost the frost and
ice in the freezer compartment, you are required to periodically switch off
the fridge, place the frozen food in a separate cooled container, then remove
the ice gathered in the freezer compartment.
The situation is completely different in No-frost fridges. A built-in fan
blows dry and cold air evenly throughout the cooler and freezer compartments.
The cold air disperses uniformly between the shelves, ensuring all your food
is cooled equally, thus preventing humidity and frost build-up. Therefore,
your No-frost fridge allows ease of use, in addition to its huge capacity and
stylish appearance.

Temperature Settings Warnings
- Your appliance is designed to operate in the ambient temperature ranges stated in the standards, according to the climate class stated in the information label. It is not recommended that your fridge is operated in the environments which are outside of the stated temperature ranges. This will reduce the cooling efficiency of the appliance.
- Temperature adjustments should be made according to the frequency of door openings, the quantity of food kept inside the appliance and the ambient temperature in the location of your appliance.
- When the appliance is first switched on, allow it to run for 24 hours in order to reach operating temperature. During this time, do not open the door and do not keep a large quantity of food inside.
- A 5 minute delay function is applied to prevent damage to the compressor of your appliance when connecting or disconnecting to mains, or when an energy breakdown occurs. Your appliance will begin to operate normally after 5 minutes.
Climate class and meaning:
- T (tropical): This refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 16 °C to 43 °C.
- ST (subtropical): This refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 16 °C to 38 °C.
- N (temperate): This refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 16 °C to 32 °C.
- SN (extended temperate): This refrigerating appliance is intended to be used at ambient temperatures ranging from 10 °C to 32 °C.
The Turbo Fan
Do not block the air inlet and outlet openings when storing food, otherwise
air circulation provided by the turbo fan will be impaired.
Accessories
Visual and text descriptions in the accessories section may vary according to
the model of your appliance.
Ice Tray
- Fill the ice tray with water and place in the freezer compartment.
- After the water has completely frozen, you can twist the tray as shown below to remove the ice cubes.
The Freezer Box
The freezer box allows food to be accessed more easily.
Removing the freezer box:
- Pull the box out as far as possible
- Pull the front of the box up and out
Carry out the opposite of this operation when refitting the sliding
compartment.
Always keep hold of the handle of the box while removing it.
The Fresh Dial
- If the crisper is full, the fresh dial located in front of the crisper should be opened.
- This allows the air in the crisper and the humidity rate to be controlled, to increase the life of food within.
- The dial, located behind the shelf, must be opened if any condensation is seen on the glass shelf
Ultrafresh technology helps to remove ethylene gas (a volatile organic compound released naturally from fresh foods) and unpleasant odors from the crisper. In this way, food stays fresh for a longer time.
- Ultrafresh must be cleaned once in a year. The filter should be waited for 2 hours at 65°C in a oven.
- To clean the filter, please remove the back cover of the filter box by pulling it in the direction of the arrow.
- The filter should not be washed with water or any detergent. (The images are representative)
FOOD STORAGE
Refrigerator Compartment
-
To reduce humidity and avoid the consequent formation of frost, always store liquids in sealed containers in the refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of the evaporating liquid and, in time, your appliance will require more frequent defrosting.
-
Cooked dishes must remain covered when they are kept in the fridge.Do
not place warm foods in fridge.Place them when they are cool, otherwise the temperature/humidity inside the fridge will increases, reducing the fridge’s efficiency. -
Make sure no items are in direct contact with the rear wall of the appliance as frost will develop and packaging will stick to it. Do not open the refrigerator door frequently.
-
We recommend that meat and clean fish are loosely wrapped and stored on the glass shelf just above the vegetable bin where the air is cooler, as this provides the best storage conditions.
-
Store loose fruit and vegetable items in the crisper containers.
-
Storing fruit and vegetables separately helps prevent ethylene-sensitive vegetables (green leaves, broccoli, carrot, etc.) being affected by ethylene-releaser fruits (banana, peach, apricot, fig etc.).
-
Do not put wet vegetables into the refrigerator.
-
Storage time for all food products depends on the initial quality of the food and an uninterrupted refrigeration cycle before refrigerator storage.
-
Water leaking from meat may contaminate other products in the refrigerator. You should package meat products and clean any leakages on the shelves.
-
Do not put food in front of the air flow passage.
Do not allow food to come into contact with the temperature sensor, which is located in the refrigerator compartment, in order to keep the refrigerator compartment at optimum temperature.
- For normal working conditions, it will be sufficient to adjust the temperature setting of your refrigerator to +4 °C.
- The temperature of the fridge compartment should be in the range of 0-8 °C, fresh foods below 0 °C are iced and rotted, bacterial load increases above 8 °C, and spoils.
- Do not put hot food in the refrigerator immediately, wait for the temperature to pass outside. Hot foods increase the degree of your refrigerator and cause food poisoning and unnecessary spoiling of the food.
- Meat, fish, etc. should be store in the chiller compartment of the food, and the vegetable compartment is preferred for vegetables. (if available)
- To prevent cross contamination, meat products and fruit vegetables are not stored together.
- Foods should be placed in the refrigerator in closed containers or covered to prevent moisture and odors.
The table below is a quick guide to show you the most efficient way to store the major food groups in your refrigerator compartment.
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 and store on the glass
shelf
Fresh cheese| 3 – 4 days| On the designated door shelf
Butter and margarine| 1 week| On the designated door shelf
Food| Maximum storage time| How and where to store
---|---|---
Bottled products
e.g. milk and yoghurt
| Until the expiry date recommended by the producer|
On the designated door shelf
Eggs| 1 month| On the designated egg shelf
Cooked food| 2 days| All shelves
NOTE:
Potatoes, onions and garlic should not be stored in the refrigerator.
Freezer Compartment
- The freezer is used for storing frozen food, freezing fresh food, and making ice cubes.
- Food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic cups and other food should be frozen in plastic folios or bags.For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh food properly, that is the packaging should be air tight and shouldn’t leak. Special freezer bags, aluminum foil polythene bags and plastic containers are ideal.
- Do not store fresh food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen food.
- Before freezing fresh food, divide it into portions that can be consumed in one sitting.
- Consume thawed frozen food within a short period of time after defrosting
- Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions on food packaging when storing frozen food. If no information is provided food, should not be stored for more than 3 months from the date of purchase.
- When purchasing frozen food, make sure that it has been stored under appropriate conditions and that the packaging is not damaged.
- Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers and placed in the freezer as soon as possible.
- Do not purchase frozen food if the packaging shows signs of humidity and abnormal swelling. It is probable that it has been stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the contents have deteriorated.
- The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, the 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 packaging and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
- If the freezer door has been left open for a long time or not closed properly, frost will form and can prevent efficient air circulation. To resolve this, unplug the freezer and wait for it to defrost. Clean the freezer once it has fully defrosted.
- The freezer volume stated on the label is the volume without baskets, covers, and so on.
- Do not refreeze thawed food. It may pose a danger to your health and cause problems such as food poisoning.
NOTE : If you attempt to open the freezer door immediately after closing it, you will find that it will not open easily. This is normal. Once equilibrium has been reached, the door will open easily.
- Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and any other food which needs to be frozen quickly) more quickly because of the freezing shelf’s greater freezing power. Fast freezing shelf is the bottom drawer of the freezer compartment.
- To use the maximum capacity of the freezer compartment, use the glass shelves for the upper and middle section, and use the lower basket for the bottom section.
The table below is a quick guide to show you the most efficient way to store the major food groups in your freezer compartment

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
- Disconnect the unit from the power supply before cleaning.
- Do not wash your appliance by pouring water on it.
- Do not use abrasive products, detergents or soaps for cleaning the appliance. After washing, rinse with clean water and dry carefully. When you have finished cleaning, reconnect the plug to the mains supply with dry hands.
- Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical components.
- The appliance should be cleaned regularly using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water.
- Clean the accessories separately by hand with soap and water. Do not wash accessories in a dish washer.
- Clean the condenser with a brush at least twice a year. This will help you to save on energy costs and increase productivity.
The power supply must be disconnected during cleaning.
Defrosting
- Your appliance performs automatic defrosting. The water formed as a result of defrosting passes through the water collection spout, flows into the water tray behind your appliance and evaporates there.
- Make sure you have disconnected the plug of your appliance before cleaning the water tray.
- Remove the water tray from its position by removing the screws (if it has screws). Clean it with soapy water at specific time intervals. This will prevent odours from forming.
Replacing LED Lighting
To replace any of the LEDs, please contact the nearest Authorised Service
Centre.
Note : The numbers and location of the LED strips may change according to
the model
If product equipped with LED lamp This product contains a light source of
energy efficiency class

Your appliance is not operating Check if:
- There is power
- The plug is correctly placed in the socket
- The plug fuse or the mains fuse has blown
- The socket is defective. To check this, plug another working appliance into the same socket.
The appliance performs poorly Check if:
- The appliance is overloaded
- The appliance door is closed properly
- There is any dust on the condenser
- There is enough space near the rear and side walls.
Your appliance is operating noisily Normal noises
Cracking noise occurs:
- During automatic defrosting
- When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).
- Short cracking noise occurs: When the thermostat switches the compressor on/off.
- Motor noise: Indicates the compressor is operating normally. The compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is first activated.
- Bubbling noise and splash occurs:
- Due to the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of the system.
- Water flowing noise occurs: Due to water flowing to the evaporation container. This noise is normal during defrosting.
- Air blowing noise occurs: In some models during normal operation of the system due to the circulation of air.
- The edges of the appliance in contact with the door joint are warm
- Especially during summer (warm seasons), the surfaces in contact with the door joint may become warmer during the operation of the compressor, this is normal.
There is a build-up of humidity inside the appliance Check if:
- All food is packed properly. Containers must be dry before being placed in the appliance.
- The appliance door is opened frequently. Humidity of the room enters the appliance when the doors are opened. Humidity increases faster when the doors are opened more frequently, especially if the humidity of the room is high.
The door does not open or close properly Check if:
There is food or packaging preventing the door from closing
- The door joints are broken or torn
- Your appliance is on a level surface.
- The compressor can run loudly or the noise of the compressor/refrigerator may increase in some models during operating in some conditions such that the product is plugged in for the first time, depending on change in the ambient temperature or change of usage. That is normal; when the refrigerator reaches the required temperature, the noise decreases automatically.
Recommendations
- If the appliance is switched off or unplugged, wait at least 5 minutes before plugging the appliance in or restarting it in order to prevent damage to the compressor.
- If you will not use your appliance for a long time (e.g. in summer holidays) unplug it. Clean your appliance according to chapter cleaning and leave the door open to prevent humidity and smell.
- If a problem persists after you have followed all the above instructions, please consult the nearest authorised service centre.
- The appliance you have purchased is designed for domestic use only. It is not suitable for commercial or common use.
- If the consumer uses the appliance in a way that does not comply with this, we emphasise that the manufacturer and the dealer will not be responsible for any repair and failure within the guarantee period.
TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY
- Install the appliance in a cool, wellventilated room, but not in direct sunlight and not near a heat source (such as a radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating plate should be used.
- Allow warm food and drinks to cool before placing them inside the appliance.
- Place thawing food in the refrigerator compartment if available. The low temperature of the frozen food will help cool the refrigerator compartment while the food is thawing. This will save energy. Frozen food left to thaw outside of the appliance will result in a waste of energy.
- Drinks or other liquids should be covered when inside the appliance. If left uncovered, the humidity inside the appliance will increase, therefore the appliance uses more energy. Keeping drinks and other liquids covered helps preserve their smell and taste.
- Avoid keeping the doors open for long periods and opening the doors too frequently as warm air will enter the appliance and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
- Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (such as the crisper and chiller if available) closed.
- The door gasket must be clean and pliable. In case of wear, replace the gasket.
