USING THE APPLIANCE
Information about The New Generation Cooling Technology
The New Generation Cooling Technology refrigerators are different from the
other static refrigerators in terms of their operational system.
In normal fridge freezers, the humidity entering the fridge freezer due to
opening the door and the humidity inherent in the food causes freezing in the
freezer compartment. To defrost the frost and ice in the freezer compartment,
you are periodically required to turn off the fridge freezer, place the food
that needs to be kept frozen in a separately cooled container and remove the
ice gathered in the freezer compartment.
The situation is completely different in nofrost refrigerators. Dry and cold
air is blown into the fridge and freezer compartments homogeneously and evenly
from several points via a blower fan. Cold air dispersed homogeneously and
evenly between the shelves cools all of your food equally and uniformly, thus
preventing humidity and freezing.
Therefore your New Generation Cooling Technology fridge freezer allows you
ease of use, in addition to its huge capacity and stylish appearance.
Control panel

If your fridge is operating too loudly;
Normal Noises
Cracking (Ice cracking) Noise:
- During automatic defrosting.
- When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).
Short cracking: Heard when the thermostat switches the compressor on/ off.
Compressor noise: Normal motor noise. This noise means that the compressor operates normally Compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is activated.
Bubbling noise and splash: This noise is caused by the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of the system.
Water flow noise: Normal flow noise of water flowing to the evaporation container during defrosting. This noise can be heard during defrosting.
Air Blow Noise: Normal fan noise. This noise can be heard in fridges during normal operation of the system due to the circulation of air.
If the edges of fridge cabinet that the door joint contact are warm;
Especially in summer (hot weather), the surfaces that the joint contact may
get warmer during the operation of the compressor, this is normal.
If humidity builds up inside the fridge freezer;
- Are all food packed properly? Are the containers dried before placing them in the fridge?
- Are the fridge freezeer’s doors opened frequently? Humidity of the room gets in the fridge when the door is opened. Humidity build up will be faster when you open the door more frequently, especially if the humidity of the room is high.
If the doors are not opened and closed properly;
- Do the food packages prevent closing of the door?
- Are the door compartments, shelves and drawers placed properly?
- Are door joints broken or torn?
- Is your fridge freezer on a level surface?
