4 Before operating
Final Check
Before you start usng the frdge/
freezer check that:
1. The feet have been adjusted
for perfect levelling.
2. The interior is dry and air can
circulate freely at the rear.
3. Clean the interior as
recommended under “CLEANING AND
CARE.”
4. Insert the plug into the
wall socket and switch on the
electricity supply.Avoid accidental
disconnection by taping over the
switch.
5. You will hear a noise as the
compressor starts up. The liquid and
gases sealed within the refrigeration
system may also give rise to noise,
whether the compressor is running or
not which is quite normal.
6. If you are going to store already
frozen food you don’t need to change
the thermostat setting.
7. Slight undulation of the top of
the cabinet is quite normal due to the
manufacturing process used, so do
not worry, it is not a defect.
8. Front edges of the cabinet may
feel warm. This is normal. These areas
are designed to be warm to avoid
condensation.
9. We recommend that you
set the thermostat knob at 3
and monitor the temperature to
ensure the appliance maintains
desired storage temperatures (see
section Temperature Control and
Adjustment).
10. Do not load the appliance
immediately after it is switched
on. Wait until the correct storage
temperature has been reached.
We recommend that you check
the temperature with an accurate
thermometer (see; Temperature
Control and Adjustment).
Important Notes :
1. If there is a power failure
do not open the door. Frozen food
should not be affected if the failure
lasts for less than 13 hours. If the
failure is longer, then the food
should be checked and either eaten
immediately or cooked and then re-
frozen.
2. If you find the freezer door
difficult to open just after you have
closed it, don’t worry. This is due to
the pressure difference which will
equalise and allow the door to open
normally after a few minutes.
3. Always wrap food using a
suitable packaging material before
storing in your appliance to avoid
contact with the appliance surface
and food remains for hygiene
reasons.
EN
14
Temperature Control And Adjustment
OFF
Temperature is controlled by the
thermostat which is located on the
rear wall of the cabinet (see the
diagram on page 5). Thermostat knob
is located on the thermostat housing.
"Number 4" is the coldest setting. The
normal storage temperature of your
appliance should be -18 °C (0 °F).
Lower temperatures may be obtained
by adjusting the thermostat knob
towards 'number 4 ' position.
We recommend that you check the
temperature with a thermometer to
ensure that the storage compartments
are kept to the desired temperature.
Remember you must take your reading
very quickly since the thermometer
temperature will rise very rapidly after
you remove it from the freezer.
Please remember each time the door
is opened cold air escapes and the
internal temperature rises. Therefore
never leave the door open and ensure
it is closed immediately after food is
put in or removed.
EN

5 Using your freezer
Defrosting of the appliance
Defrost twice a year or when a frost
layer of around 7 mm (1/4”) has
formed.
To start defrosting procedure turn the
thermostat knob to zero position
(Alternatively you may switch off the
freezer at the socket outlet and pull
out the mains plug.)
All food should be wrapped in several
layers of newspaper and stored in a
cool place (e.g. fridge or larder).
Remove all freezer drawers.The special
defrost collection basin collects the
defrost water. Therefore defrosting
can be conducted without mess.
Containers full of warm water may be
placed carefully in the freezer to
speed up the defrosting.
Do not use pointed or sharp edged
objects such as knives, forks to
remove the frost.
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters
and other similar electrical
appliances for defrosting.
When defrosting has finished, sponge
out any defrost water which collects
at the bottom of the freezer and
dry the interior thoroughly. Turn
the thermostat knob to 2. Close
the freezer door. Insert the plug
into the wall socket and switch on
the electricity supply. Don’t forget
to tape over the switch to avoid
accidental disconnection.
Storing Frozen Food
Prepacked commercially frozen
food should be stored in accordance
with the frozen food manufacturer’s
instructions for a frozen food
storage compartment.
The freezing area is marked with
symbol on the door liner.
To ensure that the high quality
achieved by the frozen food
manufacturer and the food retailer is
maintained the following should be
remembered:
1. Put packets in the freezer as
quickly as possible after purchase.
2. Do not exceed “Use By”, “Best
Before” dates on the packaging.
3. Please note that drawers,
baskets, flaps, trays are all removable.
Freezing Fresh Food
Freezing capacity of your appliance
in a 24 hours period is 10.5 kg (23 lb).
Never exceed this maximum capacity.
If you are using the maximum
freezing capacity, turn the thermostat
knob to position 4.

Making ice cubes
Fill the ice-cube tray 3/4 full with
water and place it in the freezer.
As soon as the water has turned into
ice, you can take out the ice cubes.
Never use sharp objects such as
knives or forks to remove the ice
cubes. There is a risk of injury!
Let the ice cubes slightly thaw
instead, or put the bottom of the tray
in hot water for a short moment.
Warning:
Do not use any copper pots or dıshes
ınsıde the cabinet !
Do not load any food wıthout
packaging.!
How to Freeze Fresh Foods
• Foods to be frozen must be divided
into portions according to a size to
be consumed, and frozen in separate
packages. In this way, all the food
should be prevented from being re-
frozen by thawing.
• In order to protect the nutritional
value, the aroma and the color of
the foods as much as possible,
vegetables should be boiled for a
short period of time before freezing.
(Boiling is not necessary for foods
such as cucumber, parsley.) Cooking
time of the vegetables frozen in this
way is shortened by 1/3 than that of
the fresh vegetables.
• To extend the storage times of
frozen foods, boiled vegetables
must first be filtered and then
hermetically packaged as in the all
types of foods.
• Foods should not be placed in the
freezer compartment without
package.
• The packaging material of the food
to be stored should be air-tight, thick
and durable and should not deform
with cold and humidity. Otherwise,
the food that is hardened by
freezing might pierce the package.
Sealing the package well is also
important in terms of securely
storing the food.
The following packaging types are
suitable for use to freeze the food:
Polyethylene bag, aluminum foil,
plastic foil, vacuum bags and cold-
resistant storage containers with
caps.
EN
17
The use of the following types of
packaging is not recommended to
freeze the food;
Packaging paper, parchment
paper,cellophane (gelatin paper),
garbage bag, used bags and shopping
bags.
• Hot foods should not be placed in
the freezer compartment without
cooling.
• When placing unfrozen fresh foods
in the freezer compartment, please
note that it does not contact with
frozen foods. Cool-pack (PCM)
(if any) can be placed to the rack
immediately below the quick freezer
rack for preventing them from being
getting warm.
• During the freezing time (24 hours)
do not place other food to the
freezer.
• Place your foods to the freezing
shelves or racks by spreading them
so that they will not be cramped (it
is recommended that the packaging
does not come into contact with
each other).
• Frozen foods must be immediately
consumed in a short period of time
after defrosting and must never be
frozen again.
• We recommend you to attach a label
onto the package and write the
name of the foods in the package
and the freezing time.
Foods suitable for freezing:
• Fish and seafood, red and white
meat, poultry, vegetables, fruit,
herbaceous spices, dairy products
(such as cheese, butter and strained
yoghurt), pastries, ready or cooked
meals, potato dishes, souffle and
desserts.
•Foods not suitable for freezing:
• Yoghurt, sour milk, cream,
mayonnaise, leaved salad, red
radish, grapes, all fruits (such as
apple, pears and peaches).
• For foods to be frozen quickly and
thoroughly, the following specified
amounts per package should not be
exceeded.
-Fruits and vegetables, 0.5-1 kg
-Meat, 1-1.5 kg
• A small amount of foods (maximum
2 kg) can also be frozen without the
use of the quick freezing function.
To obtain the best result, apply the
following instructions:
1. Switch the adjusting knob to
MAX or 4 position 24 hours before
placing your fresh foods to freeze.
2. 24 hours after turning the
thermostat knob, place your food that
you want to freeze to the front of top
drawer with higher freezing capacity.
If you have food remained, place them
to the sides of the middle section.
3. Do not forget to turn the
thermostat knob to its previous
position, after placing your food.
4. Do not try to freeze a large
quantity of food at a time. Within 24
hours, this product can freeze the
maximum food quantity specified as
«Freezing Capacity 10.5 kg/24 hours»
on its type label. It is not convenient
to put more unfrozen/fresh foods to
the freezer compartment than the
quantity specified on the label.
EN
18
• You can review the Meat and
Fish, Vegetables and Fruits, Dairy
Products tables for placing and
storing your foods in the deep-
freezer.
Recommendations for
Preservation of
Frozen Foods
• While purchasing your frozen foods,
make sure that they are frozen at
appropriate temperatures and their
packages are not broken.
• Put the packages on the freezer
compartment as soon as possible
after purchasing them.
• Make sure that the expiration
date indicated on the packaging
is not expired before consuming
the packaged ready meals that
you remove from the freezer
compartment.
Deep Freezer Information
The EN 62552 standard requires
(according to specific measurement
conditions) that at least 4.5 kg of
food for each 100 liter of freezer
compartment volume can be frozen
at a room temperature of 25°C in 24
hours.
Defrosting the frozen
foods
Depending on the food diversity and
the purpose of use, a selection can be
made between the following options
for defrosting:
• At room temperature (it is not very
suitable to defrost the food by
leaving it at room temperature for
a long time in terms of maintaining
the food quality)
• In the refrigerator
• In the electrical oven (in models with
or without fan)
• In the microwave oven
CAUTION:
• Never put acidic beverages in glass
bottles and cans into your freezer
due to the risk of explosion.
• If there is moisture and abnormal
swelling in the packaging of frozen
foods, it is likely that they were
previously stored in an improper
storage condition and their contents
deteriorated. Do not consume these
foods without checking.
• Since some spices in cooked meals
may change their taste when
exposed to long-term storage
conditions, your frozen foods should
be less seasoned or the desired
spices should be added to the foods
after the thawing process.

6 Maintenance and cleaning
• We recommend that you switch off
the appliance at the socket outlet
and pull out the mains plug before
cleaning.
• Never use any sharp abrasive
instrument, soap, household
cleaner, detergent and wax polish
for cleaning.
• Use luke warm water to clean the
cabinet of the appliance and wipe it
dry.
• Use a damp cloth wrung out in
a solution of one teaspoon of
bicarbonate of soda to one pint of
water to clean the interior and wipe
it dry.
• Excess deposit of ice should be
removed on a regular basis using
the handle of a spoon. Large
accumulation of ice will impair the
performance of the freezer.
• If the freezer is not going to be
used for a long period of time
switch it off,remove all food, clean it
and leave the door ajar.
• To remove a drawer, pull it as far as
possible, and then tilt it upwards,
and then pull it out completely.
• Any dust that gathers on the
condenser, which is located at
the back of the freezer, should be
removed once a year with a vacuum
cleaner.
• Check door seals regularly to ensure
they are clean and free from food
particles..
• Never :
Clean the worktop with unsuitable
material; eg petroleum based
products.
Subject it to hot temperatures
in any way, Scour, rub etc., with
abrasive material.

7 Do's and Don'ts
Do- Clean your appliance regularly (See
“Cleaning and Care”)
Do- Keep raw meat and poultry below
cooked food and dairy products.
Do- Take off any unusable leaves on
vegetables and wipe off any soil.
Do- Leave lettuce, cabbage, parsley and
cauliflower on the stem.
Do- Wrap cheese firstly in greaseproof
paper and then in a polythene bag
excluding as much air as possible.
For best results take out of the
fridge compartment an hour before
eating.
Do- Wrap raw meat and poultry loosely
in polythene or aluminium foil. This
prevents drying.

bags.
Do- Wrap food which have a strong

airtight container.
Do- Wrap bread well to keep it fresh.

mineral water before serving.
Do- Check contents of the freezer every
so often.
Do- Keep food for as short a time
as possible and adhere to “Best
Before”, “Use by” etc. dates.
Do- Store commercially frozen food in
accordance with the instructions
given on the packets that you buy.
Do- Always choose high quality fresh
food and be sure it is thoroughly
clean before you freeze it.
Do- Prepare fresh food for freezing

Do- Remove ice cream from the freezer
10-20 minutes before serving.

compartment.
Don’t- Store melon in your fridge. It

appliance. It has been designed for
the storage of edible foodstuffs
only.
Don’t- Consume food which has been
stored for an excessive time in the
fridge.

together in the same container.
They should be packaged and
stored seperately.

drip onto food.
Don’t- Leave the door open for long
periods as this will make the
appliance more costly to run and
cause excessive ice formation.

Let it cool down first.
Don’t- Put liquid-filled bottles or sealed
cans containing carbonated liquids
into the freezer as they may burst.
Don’t- Exceed the maximum freezing
