5.10. Moisture controlled vegetable bin
*optional
With the moisture control feature, moisture rates of vegetables and fruits are kept under control and ensure a longer freshness period for foods.
It is recommended to store leafed vegetables such as lettuce and spinach and similar vegetables prone to moisture loss not on their roots but in horizontal position into the vegetable bin as much as possible.
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 vegetables.
Do not leave vegetables in the vegetable bin in plastic bags. Leaving them in plastic bags causes vegetables to rot in a short time. In situations where contact with other vegetables is not preferred, use packaging materials such as paper that has a certain porosity in terms of hygiene.
Do not put fruits that have a high ethylene gas production such as pear, apricot, peach and particularly apple in the same vegetable bin 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 period of time.

5.11. Deodoriser Module
*(FreshGuard) optional**
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 odour filter, 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 the odor filter integrated into the module. In daily use, the deodoriser module will turn on automatically on a  periodic basis. To maintain efficient performance, it is recommended to have the filter in the deodoriser module by the authorized service provider every 5 years.  Due to the fan integrated into the module, the noise you will hear during operation is normal. If you open the door of the fresh food compartment while the module is active, the fan will pause temporarily and resume where it has left off after some time the door is closed again. In case of power failure, the deodorizer module will resume where it has left off in the total operation duration once the power is back.
Info: It is recommended to store aromatic foods (such as cheese, olives, and delicatessen foods) in their packaging and sealed to avoid bad odors that may result when smells of various foods get mixed. Besides, it is recommended to take spoiled foods out of the refrigerator quickly to prevent the other foods from getting spoiled and avoid bad odors.

5.12. Automatic ice machine
*optional
An automatic ice machine enables you to easily make ice in your refrigerator. In order to obtain ice from the ice machine, take out the water tank in the cooler compartment, fill it with water and fix it back.
First, ice will be ready in about 2 hours in the ice machine drawer in the cooler compartment.
After placing the full water tank, you can obtain about 60-70 cubes of ice until it is fully empty.
If the water in the tank has waited for 2-3 weeks, it should be changed.

| In products with automatic ice machine, you might hear a sound when pouring the ice.  This sound is normal and is not a sign of failure.

2. Before freezing, check the “Expiry Date” on the package to make sure it is not expired.
3. Make sure the food’s packaging is not damaged.

Freezer Compartment  Temperature Setting| Cooler Compartment Temperature Setting| Details
---|---|---
-18°C| 4°C| This is the default, recommended setting.
-20,-22 or
-24°C| 4°C| These settings are recommended for ambient temperatures exceeding
30°C.
Quick Freeze| 4°C| Use when you want to freeze your food in a short time. When the process ends, the product will regain its position.
-18°C or colder| 2°C| Use these settings if you believe the cooler compartment is not cold enough due to ambient temperature or frequently opening the door.

5.21. Deep freezer details
As per the IEC 62552 standards, the freezer must have the capacity to freeze 4,5 kg of food items at -18°C or lower temperatures in 24 hours for each 100 liters of freezer compartment volume. Food items can only be preserved for extended periods at or below temperature of -18°C . You can keep the foods fresh for months (in deep freezer at or below temperatures of 18°C ). The food items to be frozen must not contact the already-frozen food inside to avoid partial defrosting. Boil the vegetables and filter the water to extend the frozen storage time. Place the food in air-tight packages after filtering and place in the freezer. Bananas, tomatoes, lettuce, celery, boiled eggs, potatoes and similar food items should not be frozen. In case this food rots, only nutritional values, and eating qualities will be negatively affected. A rotting threatening human health is not in question.

5.22. Placing the food

Freezer compartment shelves| Various frozen goods including meat, fish, ice cream, vegetables etc.
---|---
Cooler compartment shelves| Food items inside pots, capped plate and capped cases, eggs (in capped case)
Cooler compartment door shelves| Small and packed food or beverages
Vegetable bin| Fruits and vegetables
Fresh food compartment| Delicatessen (breakfast food, meat products to be consumed in  short notice)

Care and Cleaning

Service life of the product will extend and frequently encountered problems will decrease if the product is cleaned periodically.

| WARNING: Switch off the product before cleaning.
---|---
| WARNING: It is recommended to clean the condenser every six months using gloves. You must not use vacuum cleaners.

• Never use gasoline, benzene or similar substances for cleaning purposes.
• Never use any sharp abrasive instruments, soap, household cleaners, detergent or wax polish for cleaning.
• Dissolve one teaspoon of carbonate in half liter of water. Soak a cloth in the solution and wring it thoroughly. Wipe the interior of the refrigerator with this cloth and the dry thoroughly.
• Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing or other electrical parts.
• If you will not use the refrigerator for a long time, unplug it, remove all food inside, clean it and leave the door ajar.
• Check regularly that the door gaskets are clean. If not, clean them.
• Take out all items in the product to remove the door and body shelves.
• Remove the door shelves by pulling them up. Slide the shelves downwards to re-install them after cleaning.
• Never use chloric cleaning agents or water to clean outer surfaces or chrome-coated parts of the product. Chlorine causes abrasion on such metal surfaces.
• For non-No Frost products, water drops and frosting up to a fingerbreadth occur on the rear wall of the Fridge compartment. Do not clean it; never apply oil or similar agents on it.
• Only use slightly damp microfiber cloths to clean the outer surface of the product. Sponges and other types of cleaning cloths may scratch the surface.

6.1. 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.

6.2. Protection of 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.
6.3. 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.
---|---

6.4. Stainless Steel Outer Surfaces
Use a stainless steel cleaning agent that is non-abrasive 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.

6.5. Cleaning Products with Glass Doors
Remove the protection foil on the glass.
There is a coating on the surface of the glass. This coating minimises stain formation and ensures that stains and dirt are cleaned easily. Glasses that are not protected by a coating might be exposed to permanent bonding of organic or inorganic, air or waterborne pollutants such as limescale, mineral salts, unburned hydrocarbons, metal oxides an silicon, which lead to stains and physical damage in a short time. Despite regular washing, the glass becomes very hard to keep clean, though not impossible. As a result, the clarity and good appearance of the glass reduces. Hard and abrasive cleaning compounds and methods increase these defects even further and accelerate the deterioration process.
*Non-alkali, non-abrasive and water-based cleaning products must be used for routing cleaning procedures. For the coating to have long service life, alkali or abrasive substances must not be used during cleaning processes.
These glasses were subject to a tempering process to increase their impact and breakage resistance.
As an additional safety measure, there is a safety film on the back surfaces of the glasses to ensure that they will not harm the environment in case of breakage.
