Preparation

Things to Do for Energy Saving

Connecting your refrigerator to systems that save energy is dangerous as they may cause damage on the product.

• Do not leave the doors of your refrigerator open for a long time.
• Do not put hot food or drinks in your refrigerator.
• Do not overload the refrigerator. Cooling capacity will fall when the air circulation in the refrigerator is hindered.
• Do not place the refrigerator in places subject to direct sunlight. Install the product at least 30 cm away from heat sources such as hobs, ovens, heater units and stoves and at least 5 cm away from electrical ovens.
• Pay attention to store your food in refrigerator in closed containers.
• You can remove the drawer shelf of the freezer compartment to fill the freezer compartment with maximum amount of food. The given energy consumption value of the refrigerator has been determined with the freezer compartment shelf or the drawer removed and the refrigerator filled with maximum amount of food. There is no harm in using a shelf or drawer according to the shapes and sizes of food to be frozen.
• Thawing the frozen foods in the fridge compartment both saves energy and reserves the quality of the foods.

Temperature of the room where your refrigerator is located should at least be 10ºC/50°F. Operating your refrigerator under cooler conditions is
not recommended with regard to its efficiency.

Inside of your refrigerator must be cleaned thoroughly.

If two coolers are to be installed side by side, there should be at least 4 cm distance between them.

Recommendations About the Fresh Food Compartment

• Make sure that the food does not touch the temperature sensor in fresh food compartment. To allow the fresh food compartment to keep its ideal storage temperature, the sensor must not be hindered by food.
• Do not place hot foods or beverages inside the product.

Initial use

Before using the product, make sure that all preparations have been made in accordance with the instructions given in the “Important instructions regarding safety and environment” and “Installation Instruction” chapters.

• Clean the interior of the refrigerator as recommended in the “Maintenance and cleaning” section. Before you start the refrigerator, make sure that the interior is dry.
• Plug the refrigerator in a grounded socket. The interior illumination is lit when the door of the refrigerator is opened.
• Operate the refrigerator for 6 hours without placing any food in it and do not open its door unless it is necessary.

You will hear a noise when the compressor starts up. The liquids and gases sealed within the refrigeration system may also give rise to noise, even if the compressor is not running and this is quite normal.

Front edges of the refrigerator may feel warm. This is normal. These areas are designed to be warm to avoid condensation.

Operating the product

Dual Cooling System

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

Freezing Fresh Food

• Wrap the foods or place them in a covered container before putting them in the refrigerator.
• Hot foods and beverages must cool down to the room temperature before you put them in the refrigerator.
• The foodstuff that you want to freeze must be fresh and in good quality.
• Divided the food into portions according to your family’s daily or meal based consumption needs.
• Pack the foods 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, odor, oils and acids and they must also be airtight. Moreover, they must be well closed and they must be made from easy-to-use materials that are suitable for deep-freezers.
• Frozen food must be used immediately after they are thawed and they should never be refrozen.
• Do not freeze too 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 Storing Frozen Food

• Frozen foods you purchase must be stored according to the conditions and temperature determined by the food manufacturer.
• Note the following to ensure that the high quality achieved by the frozen food manufacturer and the food retailer is maintained:
• Put packages in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.
• Make sure that the content of the package is labeled and dated.
• Check whether the “Use By” or “Best Before” date on the packaging is expired or not.

Placing the Food

Freezer compartment shelves| Various frozen food such as meat, fish, ice cream, vegetables etc.

Fridge compartment shelves| Food in pans, covered plates and closed containers
Door shelves of fridge compartment| Small and packaged foods or beverages (such as milk, fruit juice, beer and etc.)
Crisper| Vegetables and fruits
Special fridge compartment| Delicatessen products (cheese, butter, salami, etc.)

Information About Deep Freezing

Food must be frozen as rapidly as possible when they are put in a refrigerator in order to keep them in good quality.
You can keep the freshness of food for many months (at -18 °C / 0°F or lower temperatures in the deep freezer).

Divided the food into portions according to your family’s daily or meal based consumption needs.

Pack the foods 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 the foodstuff must be tear-proof and resistant to cold, humidity, odor, oils, and acids.
Foods to be frozen should not be allowed to come in contact with the previously frozen items to prevent them from getting thawed partially.

Frozen food must be used immediately after they are thawed and they should never be re-frozen.

Fridge and freezer systems with dual cooling systems have been designed to maintain net, consistent temperature, and appropriate humidity levels to meet long food life expectations. The dual cooling system prevents fresh food smells from getting mixed with frozen foods or ice and it does not freeze the humidity in the air within the fresh food compartment.

Freezer Compartment Setting| Fridge Compartment Setting| Remarks
---|---|---
-18°C / 0°F| 4°C / 39°F| This is the recommended normal setting.
-20°C / -4°F| 3°C / 37°F| These settings are recommended when the ambient temperature is above 30°C/86°E
Quick Freeze| 4°C / 39°F| Use when you wish to freeze your food in a short time. Your refrigerator will return to its previous mode when the process is over.
-24°C / -12°F| 2°C / 35°F| Use these settings if you think that your fridge compartment is not cold enough because of the hot ambient conditions or frequent opening and closing of the door.
-18°C / 0°F or colder| Quick Fridge| Use this function when you place too much into the fridge compartment or when you need to cool your food quickly. It is recommended that you activate Quick Fridge function 4-8 hours before placing the food.

Recommended Operating Temperature: Fridge: 4°C / 39°F Freezer: -18°C / 0°F

Humidity-Controlled Crisper (EverFresh+)

(Crisper Compartment)
(May not be available in all models)
Thanks to its humidity control feature, it keeps the humidity rates of fruits and vegetables at a certain level and keeps foods fresh for a longer period.

To remove the crisper:

1. Pull the crisper until it stops.
2. Slightly lift the front section of the drawer and take it out completely.

To install the crisper:

1. Pull the rails completely.

2. Place the gap at the rear corners of the crisper to the detail located at the rear corners of the rails.

3. Place the detail at the front section of the rail to the gap at the front part of the crisper.

Make sure that the details at the right and left-hand sides are fixed when installing the crisper.
Never leave the vegetables in their plastic bags in the crisper. If they are left in their plastic bags they will rot in a short period of time.

The humidity-controlled crisper feature preserves the humidity of your vegetables, allowing you to store them for a long time without having to keep them in their bags. If you do not prefer the vegetables to get into contact with other vegetables due to hygienic reasons, you can use perforated paper, foam or a similar material
instead of plastic bags.
While the vegetables are being replaced, their specific weights should be taken into consideration. Heavy and hard vegetables must be placed at the bottom of the crisper and light and soft vegetables must be on the upper part. Pears, kiwis, tomatoes, cucumbers, apricots, peaches, broccolis, lettuces, cabbages, parsley and spinach are fruits and vegetables that emit ethylene gas. Do not place them into the same crisper with other fruits and vegetables. The ethylene gas emitted by these foods cause other fruits and vegetables to ripen sooner and to rot in a shorter span of time.
Do not remove the main body of the crisper from the refrigerator separately unless you have to do so.

ATTENTION:
If there is a blue light on the refrigerator, do not look at the blue light with optical tools.

Avoiding Bad Odours

Materials that may cause odour are not used in the production of our refrigerators. However, odour may be emitted if foods are stored improperly or if the inner surface of the product is not cleaned as required. Please consider the following to avoid this problem:

• It is important that the refrigerator is kept clean. Food residuals, stains, etc. can cause odour. For this reason, clean your refrigerator with carbonate solved in water every 15 days. Never use detergents or soap.
• Keep your foods in closed vessels. Microorganisms emitted from vessels without a cover may cause unpleasant odours.
• Never keep expired or spoiled foods in your refrigerator.

Protecting the Plastic Surfaces

Do not put liquid oils or oil-cooked meals in your refrigerator in unsealed containers as they damage the plastic surfaces of your refrigerator. If oil is spilled or smeared onto the plastic surfaces, clean and rinse the relevant part of the surface with warm water immediately.

Cleaning the Inner Surface

To clean the inner surfaces and all removable parts, wash them with a mild solution comprising soap, water and carbonate. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Prevent the water from contacting the lighting means and control panel.

ATTENTION:
Do not use vinegar, rubbing alcohol or other alcohol-based cleaning agents on any of the inner surfaces.

Stainless Steel Outer Surfaces

Use a stainless steel cleaning agent that is nonabrasive and apply it with a lint-free, soft cloth. For polishing, wipe the surface softly with a damp microfiber cloth and use dry wash-leather. Always follow the strands of the stainless steel.
