3. USING THE APPLIANCE
3.1. 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 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 New Generation Cooling
Technology fridge freezer allows you ease
of use, in addition to its huge capacity and
stylish appearance.

alarm led will release red light
3.2.3. Super Cooling Mode
When would it be used?
• To cooling huge quantities of food.
• To cooling fast food.
• To cooling food quickly.
• To store seasonal food for a long
time.
How to use?
• Press temperature set button until
super cooling light comes on.
• Super cooling led will light during
this mode.
• For optimal appliance
performance in maximum cooling
capacity, set the appliance to
active Super Cooling mode 5
hours before you put the fresh
food into the fridge.
During this mode:
If you press temperature set
button, the mode will be cancelled
and the setting will be restored
from MAX.
Note: “Super cooling” mode will be
automatically cancelled after 5 hours.
3.2.4. Temperature Settings
• The initial temperature of the Setting
Display is middle temperature indicator.
• Press temperature set button once.
• Every time you press the button, the
setting temperature will decrease.
• If you press temperature set button until
super cooling symbol is displayed on your
fridge settings display and you do not
press any button within the following 3
seconds, Super cooling will blink.
• If you keep on pressing, it will restart from
last value.
It ensures that the temperature settings
in the cooling and freezing compartments
of your refrigerator are performed
automatically. It may be set to any value
ranging from MIN to MAX. As you press
temperature set button from MIN to MAX,
the temperature decreases. To save energy
in winter months, operate your refrigerator
in a lower position.
3.3. Warnings for Temperature Settings
• Your temperature adjustments will not
be deleted when an energy breakdown
occurs.
• Do not pass to another adjustment before
completing an adjustment.
• Temperature adjustments should be
made according to the frequency of door
openings, the quantity of food kept inside
the fridge and ambient temperature of the
place of your fridge.
• Your fridge should be operated up to
24 hours according to the ambient
temperature without interruption after
being plugged in to be completely cooled.
• Do not open doors of your fridge
frequently and do not place much food
inside it in this period.
• A 5 minute delaying function is applied
to prevent damage to the compressor of
your fridge, when you take the plug off
and then plug it on again to operate it or
when an energy breakdown occurs. Your
EN - 9
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. We
do not recommend operating your fridge
out of stated temperatures value limits in
terms of cooling effectiveness.
• This appliance is designed for use at an
ambient temperature within the 16°C -
43°C range.
Climate class Ambient temperature oC
TBetween 16 - 43 oC
ST Between 16 - 38 oC
NBetween 16 - 32 oC
SN Between 10 - 32 oC
3.4. Accessories
3.4.1. Ice Tray
• Fill the ice tray with water and place in
freezer compartment.
• After the water completely turned into ice,
you can twist the tray as shown below to
get the ice cube.
3.4.2. Bottle holder (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.
3.4.3. Fresh dial
When the humidity controler in the closed
position, it allows fresh fruit and vegetables
to be stored longer.
In case of the crisper is totally full, the fresh
dial is located in front of crisper, should
be opened. By means of this the air in the
crisper and humidity rate will be controlled
and endurance life will be increased.
If you see any condensation on glass shelf,
humidity control should be taken into the
open positions.
3.4.4. Adjustable Door Shelf
Six different height
adjustments can be
made to provide storage
areas that you need by
adjustable door shelf.
To change the position of
adjustable door shelf ;
Hold the bottom of the shelf and pull
the buttons on the side of the door shelf
direction of arrow (Fig.1).
Position door shelf the
height you need by
moving up and down.
After you get the position

4.2. 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 refrigerator. 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.
• 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.
Please do not use the door shelves for
freezing purposes.
• 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.
EN - 11
Always abide by the instructions on the
packaging and never exceed the storage
duration.
• During long lasting power cuts,
please do not open the door of the
deep freeze compartment. Your
refrigerator will preserve your frozen food
in an ambient temperature of 25°C for
about 13 hours. This value falls in higher
ambient temperatures. During longer
lasting power cuts, do not refreeze your
food and consume it as soon as possible.

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
