Additional tips for proper usage

In the event of a power failure, call the local office of your electric company and ask how long the failure is going to last.
– Most power failures that are corrected in an hour or two will not affect your refrigerator temperatures. However, you should minimize the number of door openings while the power is off.
– Should the power failure last more than 24 hours, remove and discard all frozen food.
The refrigerator might not operate consistently (frozen contents can thaw or temperatures can become too warm in the frozen food compartment) if sited for an extended period of time in a location where ambient air temperatures are constantly below the temperatures for which the appliance is designed.
In case of particular foods, keeping it under refrigeration can have a bad effect on preservation due to its properties.
Your appliance is frost free, which means there is no need to manually defrost your appliance. This will be carried out automatically.
Temperature rise during defrosting complies with ISO requirements. If you want to prevent an undue rise in the temperature of frozen food while the appliance defrosts, wrap the frozen food in several layers of newspaper.
Do not re-freeze frozen foods that have thawed completely.

Saving Energy Tips

Install the appliance in a cool, dry room with adequate ventilation. Ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight and never put it near a direct source of heat (a radiator, for example).
Not to block any vents and grilles is recommended for energy efficiency.
Allow warm food to cool down before placing it in the appliance.
Put frozen food in the refrigerator to thaw. You can then use the low temperatures of the frozen products to cool food in the refrigerator.
Do not keep the door of the refrigerator open for too long when putting food in or taking food out. The shorter the time the door is open, the less frost build-up you’ll have in the freezer.
It is recommended to install the refrigerator with clearance to the back and sides. This will help reduce power consumption and keep your energy bills lower.
For the most efficient use of energy, please keep the all inner fittings such as baskets, drawers, shelves on the position supplied by manufacturer.

Do you hear abnormal sounds from the refrigerator?
Before calling for service, review the checkpoints below. Any service calls related to normal sounds will be charged to the user.
These sounds are normal.

When starting or ending an operation, the refrigerator may make sounds similar to a car engine igniting. As the operation stabilizes, the sounds will decrease.
While the fan is operating, these sounds may occur. When the refrigerator reaches the set temperature, no fan sound will occur.
During a defrost cycle, water may drip on the defrost heater, causing sizzling sounds.
As the refrigerator cools or freezes, refrigerant gas moves through sealed pipes, causing bubbling sounds.
As the refrigerator temperature increases or decreases, plastic parts contract and expand, creating knocking noises. These noises occur during the defrosting cycle or when electronic parts are working.
For ice maker models: When the water valve opens to fill the ice maker, buzzing sounds may occur.
Due to pressure equalizing when opening and closing the refrigerator door, whooshing sounds may occur.
