EN - 8 -
Before Using your fridge freezer
•When using your fridge freezer for the rst time, or after transportation,
keep it in an upright position for at least 3 hours before plugging into
the mains. This allows efcient operation and prevents damage to the
compressor.
•Your fridge freezer may have a smell when it is operated for the rst time. This is normal
and the smell will fade away when your fridge freezer starts to cool.
Information on the Frost Free technology
The Frost Free 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, 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 no-frost 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 no-frost fridge freezer allows you ease of use, in
addition to its huge capacity and stylish appearance.
HOW TO OPERATE THE APPLIANCE PART - 2.

Warnings for Temperature Settings
•The ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how often the door
is opened affects the temperature in the refrigerator compartment. If required, change
the temperature setting.
•It is not recommended that you operate your fridge in environments colder than 10°C in
terms of its efciency.
•The thermostat should be set by taking into consideration how often the fresh food and
freezer doors are opened and closed, how much food is stored in the refrigerator, and
the environment in which the refrigerator is located.
•When you rst switch on the appliance, you should ideally try to run it without any food
in for 24 hours and not open the door. If you need to use it straight away, try not to put a
large quantity of food inside.
•A 5 minute delay function is included to prevent damage to the compressor of your fridge,
when you unplug it and then plug it in again to operate it, or when an energy breakdown
occurs. Your fridge will start to operate normally after 5 minutes.
•Your fridge is designed to operate in the ambient temperature intervals stated in the
standards, according to the climate class stated in the information label. It is not
recommended that your fridge is operated in the environments which are out of the
stated temperature intervals. This will
reduce the cooling efciency of the
fridge.
•This appliance is designed for use at an
ambient temperature within the 16°C -
38°C range.

•After the water has completely turned into
ice, you can twist the tray as shown below
to remove the ice cubes.
Bottle holder (In some models)
(In some models)
In order to prevent bottles from slipping
or falling over, you can use the bottle
holder. This will also help to prevent the
noise made by bottles when opening or
closing the door.
Fresh dial
When the humidity controller is in
the closed position, it allows fresh fruit and
vegetables to be stored longer..
If the crisper is totally full, the fresh dial
located in front of crisper, should be opened.
If you see any condensation on the glass shelf, humidity control should be taken into
the open positions. This will control the humidity rate and will increase the life of the food.

FOOD STORAGE IN THE APPLIANCE PART - 3.
Freezer Compartment
•Please use the deep freeze compartment of your refrigerator for storing frozen food for
a long time and producing ice.
•Please place the food you would like to freeze initially in the upper basket of the deep
freeze in such a way that it does not exceed the declared freezing capacity of your fridge
freezer. Please do not place the food to be frozen near the already frozen food. You may
place your food next to the other frozen food after it has frozen (for at least 24 hours).
•You should freeze food (meat, minced meat, sh, etc.) by dividing it into portions in such
a way that they can be consumed in one sitting.
•Please do not refreeze frozen food once it has thawed. It may pose a danger for your
health since it might cause food poisoning.
•Do not place hot meals in the deep freeze before they have cooled. You may cause the
other food frozen food in the deep freeze to become putreed.
•When you buy frozen food, make sure they were frozen under appropriate conditions
and that the package is not torn.
EN - 12 -
• When storing frozen food, the storage conditions on the package should be observed. If
there are no instructions, the food has to be consumed in the shortest possible period
of time.
•Frozen food has to be transported before it perishes and should be placed in the fast
freezing shelf as soon as possible.
•If a frozen food package has been humidied and has a foul smell, the food might have
previously been stored under suitable conditions and gone rotten. Please do not buy
such food!
•The storage duration of frozen food changes depending on the environmental
temperature, the frequent opening and closing of the doors, thermostat settings, food
type and the length of time that has elapsed from the time the food was bought to the
time it entered the freezer. Always abide by the instructions on the packaging and never
exceed the storage duration.

BEFORE CALLING YOUR AFTER SALES SERVICE PART - 6.
If your refrigerator is not working properly, it may be a minor problem, in order to save time
and money, check the following, before calling an electrician.
What to do if your appliance does not operate;
Check that:
• There is no power,
• The general switch in your home is disconnected,
•The socket is not faulty. To check this, plug in another appliance that you know is working
into the same socket.
What to do if your appliance performs poorly,
Check that:
•You have overloaded the appliance ,
•The thermostat setting is in position “1” (if so, set the thermostat dial to a suitable value)
• The doors are closed properly,
•There is no dust on the condenser,
• There is enough place at the rear and side walls.
If there is noise:
The cooling gas which circulates in the refrigerator circuit may make a slight noise (bubbling
sound) even when the compressor is not running. Do not worry this is quite normal. If you
hear any other noises, check that:
• The appliance is level
• Nothing is touching the rear of the appliance.
• The objects on the appliance are vibrating.
EN - 17 -
If there is water in the lower part of the refrigerator,
Check that:
The drain hole for the water is not clogged (use the defrost drain plug to clean the drain hole)
Recommendations
•The compressor protection thermal fuse will cutout after sudden power breakdowns or
after unplugging the appliance, because the gas in the cooling system is not stabilised.
This is quite normal and the fridge will restart after 4 or 5 minutes.
•The cooling unit of your refrigerator is hidden in the rear of the appliance. Therefore,
water droplets or icing may occur on the rear surface of your fridge due to the operation
of the compressor at specied intervals. This is normal. There is no need to perform a
defrosting operation unless the icing is excessive.
•To stop the appliance completely, unplug it from main socket (for cleaning and when the
doors are left open).
•If a problem persists after you have followed all the instructions above, please consult the
nearest Authorised Service Centre.
•The appliance you have purchased is designed for domestic use and can only be used
at home and for the stated purposes. It is not suitable for commercial or common use. If
the consumer uses the appliance in a way that does not comply with this, we emphasise
that the manufacturer and the dealer will not be responsible for any repair and failure
within the guarantee period.
Tips for saving energy
1. Install the appliance in a cool, well ventilated room , but not in direct sunlight and not near
a heat source (radiator, cooker.. etc). Otherwise use an insulating plate.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool down outside the appliance.
3. When thawing frozen food, place it in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature
of the frozen food will help to cool the refrigerator compartment when it is thawing. This
will help to save energy. If the frozen food is put out, it results in a waste of energy.
4. Cover drinks or other liquids when placing them in the appliance Otherwise humidity
increases in the appliance. Therefore, the working time gets longer. Also covering drinks
and other liquids helps to preserve smell and taste.
5. Try to avoid keeping the doors open for long periods or opening the doors too frequently
as warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily
often.
6. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (crisper, chiller ...etc ) closed
7. Door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
