Deodoriser Module (FreshGuard)

May not be available in all models

• The deodorizer module quickly eliminates the bad smells in your refrigerator before they permeate the surfaces.
• Thanks to this module, which is placed on the ceiling of the fresh food compartment, the bad odors dissolve while the air is actively being passed on the odor filter, and then the air that has been cleaned by the filter is re-emitted to the fresh food compartment.
• This way, the unwanted odors that may emerge during the storage of foods in the refrigerator are eliminated before they permeate the surfaces.
• This is achieved thanks to the fan, LED, and odor filter integrated into the module.
• When you want to use the deodorizer module, please activate it from the indicator button.

Humidity-controlled crisper (EverFresh+)

• May not be available in all models
• Thanks to the humidity-controlled crisper, vegetables, and fruits may be stored for a longer period in an environment with ideal humidity conditions. With the humidity setting system with 3 options in front of your crisper, you may control the humidity inside the compartment as per the food you store. We recommend you store your food by selecting the vegetable option when you store vegetables only, the fruit option when you store fruit only, and the mixed option when you store mixed food.
• We recommend that the vegetables and fruits not be stored in bags to improve the storage period of the food and to better benefit from the humidity control system. Leaving them in plastic bags causes vegetables to rot in a short time.
• We recommend that cucumbers and broccoli, in particular, are not stored in closed bags. In situations where contact with other vegetables is not preferred, use packaging materials such as paper that have a certain level of porosity in terms of hygiene.
• When placing the vegetables, place heavy and hard vegetables at the bottom and light and soft ones on the top, taking into account the specific weights of the vegetables.
• Do not put fruits that have a high ethylene gas production such as pear, apricot, peach, and particularly apple in the same crisper with other vegetables and fruits.
• The ethylene gas coming out of these fruits might cause other vegetables and fruits to mature faster and rot in a shorter time.

Blue Light/HarvestFresh May not be available in all models For Blue Light,

• Vegetables and fruit stored in crispers illuminated with blue light continue to perform photosynthesis and retain their levels of C vitamin thanks to the effect of the wavelength of the blue light.

For HarvestFresh,

• Remove the door racks by lifting them upwards.
• Clean and dry the shelves, then attach them back in place by sliding them from above.
• Do not use chlorinated water or cleaning products on the exterior surface and chrome-coated parts of the product. Chlorine will cause rust on such metallic surfaces.
• Do not use sharp and abrasive tools, soap, house cleaning materials, detergents, gas, gasoline, varnish, and similar substances to prevent the deformation of the plastic part and the removal of prints on the part.
• Use warm water and a soft cloth for cleaning, and then dry it.
• On the products without a No-Frost feature, water droplets and ice up to the thickness of a finger may occur on the rear wall of the freezer compartment.
• Do not clean, and never apply oils or similar materials.
• Use a mildly dampened micro-fiber cloth to clean the external surface of the product. Sponges and other types of cleaning clothes may cause scratches.
• To clean all removable components during the cleaning of the interior surface of the product, wash these components with a mild solution consisting of soap, water, and carbonate.
• Wash and dry thoroughly.
• Prevent contact of water with illumination components and the control panel.

CAUTION:

• Do not use vinegar, rubbing alcohol, or other alcohol-based cleaning agents on any interior surface.

Stainless Steel External Surfaces

• Use a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaning agent and apply it with a soft lint-free cloth. To polish, gently wipe the surface with a micro-fiber cloth dampened with water and use dry polishing chamois.
• Always follow the veins of the stainless steel.
• Cleaning of the Products with Glass Doors
• Remove the protective foil on the glasses.
• There is a coating on the surface of the glasses.
• This coating minimizes the formation of stains and provides easy cleaning of the stains and specks of dirt that have been formed.
• Glass that is not protected by coating may be exposed to permanent bonding of organic or inorganic, air and water-based contaminants such as limestone, mineral salts, unburned hydrocarbons, metal oxides, and silicones, which cause staining and physical damage easily in a short time.
• Keeping the glasses clean becomes very difficult, if not impossible, despite the fact they are cleaned regularly. As a result, the transparency and appearance of the glass deteriorates.
• Hard and abrasive cleaning methods and agents further increase these defects and accelerate the process of deterioration.
• For routine cleaning processes, *non-alkaline and non-corrosive water-based cleaning products shall be used.
• To have a longer service life of this coating, alkaline, and corrosive substances shall not be used during cleaning.

• Do not keep expired and spoilt foods in the refrigerator.
• Tea is one of the most effective odor removers. Place the pulp of the brewed tea in the product inside an open container and remove it after 12 hours at the latest.
• If you keep the tea pulp inside the product for longer than 12 hours, it will collect the organisms that cause the odor so it can be the source of odor itself.
