3.13. Before starting to use
the water/ice dispenser
(This feature is optional)
• If the water pressure is below 1 bar then a
separate pump may need to be used.
• Water system of the refrigerator must be

connected to hot water line.
• No water may be obtained in the initial start-
up of the refrigerator. Because there is air in
the system. To discharge air from the system,
press dispenser latch for 1-2 minutes until
water comes from the dispenser. Water flow
may be irregular at the beginning. After the
air in the system is discharged, water flow will
return to normal.
• During initial use, you will have to wait
approximately 12 hours for the water to cool
down.
• It will take around 1-2 days for the system to
produce the full amount of ice.
• Water pressure must be between 1-8 bars for
the operation of ice/water dispenser smoothly.
For this, check that 1 glass of water (100 cc)
can be filled in 10 seconds.
• The first 10 glasses of water should not be
consumed.

5.2. NeoFrost Cooling System
Thanks to the two separate cooling systems,
cooling speed is much faster than traditional
refrigerators. Air in the fridge is kept with optimal
humidity which is essential for fruit and vegetables
and the freezer maintains a dry environment.
Odours are also not transferred from the fridge to
freezer and vice versa.
5.3. Freezing fresh food
• Wrap the food or place them in a covered
container before putting in the freezer.
• Hot food and beverages must cool down to the
room temperature before putting them in the
freezer.
• The foodstuff that you want to freeze must be
fresh and in good quality.
• Divide the food into portions according to your
family's daily or meal based consumption needs.
• Pack the food 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,
oils and acids and they must also be airtight.
Moreover, 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 re-
frozen.
• 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.

When the ice dispenser does not work properly
If you do not remove ice cubes for a long time, they
will cause formation of ice chunks. In this case, please
remove the ice stock reservoir in accordance with the
instructions given above, seperate the ice chunks,
discard the inseparable ice and put the ice cubes back
into the ice stock reservoir. (Figure 4)
When ice does not come out, check for any ice stuck
in the canal and remove it. Regularly check the ice
canal to clear the obstacles as shown in the figure 5.
When using your refrigerator for the first time or when
not using it for an extended period of time Ice cubes
may be small due to air in the pipe after connection,
any air will be purged during normal use.
Discard the ice produced for approximately one day
since the water pipe may contain the contaminants.
Caution!
Do not insert the hand or any other object into the ice
canal and blade since it may damage the parts or hurt
the hand.

5.16 Humidity controlled crisper
(FreSHelf)
(This feature is optional)
Humidity rates of the vegetables and fruit are
kept under control with the feature of humidity-
controlled crisper and the food is ensured to stay
fresh for longer.
We recommend you to place the leafy vegetables
such as lettuce, spinach and the vegetables which
are sensitive to humidity loss, in a horizontal man-
ner as much as possible inside the crisper, not on
their roots in a vertical position.
While the vegetables are being placed, specific
gravity of the vegetables should be taken into con-
sideration. Heavy and hard vegetables should be
put at the bottom of the crisper and the lightweight
and soft vegetables should be placed over.
Never leave the vegetables inside the crisper in
their bags. If the vegetables are left inside their
bags, this will cause them to decompose in a short
period of time. In case contacting with other vege-
tables is not preferred for hygiene concerns, use a
perforated paper and other similar packaging ma-
terials instead of a bag.
Do not place together the pear, apricot, peach,
etc. and apple in particular which have a high le-
vel of generation of ethylene gas in the same cris-
per with the other vegetables and fruit. The eth-
ylene gas which is emitted by these fruit may cau-
se the other fruit to ripen faster and decompose in
a shorter time.

extend the service life of the product.
BWARNING: Unplug the product before
cleaning it.
• Never use gasoline, benzene or similar
substances for cleaning purposes.
• Never use any sharp and abrasive tools, soap,
household cleaners, detergent and wax polish
for cleaning.
• Dissolve one teaspoon of bi-carbonate in half
litre of water. Soak a cloth with the solution and
wrung it thoroughly. Wipe the interior of the re-
frigerator with this cloth and the dry thoroughly.
• Make sure that no water enters the lamp hous-
ing and other electrical items.

surfaces.
6.1 Avoiding bad odours
Materials that may cause odour are not used in
the production of our refrigerators. However, due
to inappropriate food preserving conditions and
not cleaning the inner surface of the refrigerator as
required can bring forth the problem of odour. Pay
attention to following to avoid this problem:
• Keeping the refrigerator clean is important.
Food residuals, stains, etc. can cause odour.
Therefore, clean the refrigerator with bi-
carbonate dissolved in water every few months.
Never use detergents or soap.
• Keep the food in closed containers.
Microorganisms spreading out from uncovered
containers can cause unpleasant odours.
• Never keep the food that have passed best
before dates and spoiled in the refrigerator.
6.2 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 the refrigerator. If oil is
spilled or smeared onto the plastic surfaces, clean
and rinse the relevant part of the surface at once
with warm water.
