4Preparation
• For a freestanding appliance;
‘this refrigerating appliance is not
intended to be used as a built-in
appliance.
• Your cooler/freezer should be
installed at least 30 cm away from
heat sources such as hobs, ovens,
central heater and stoves and at
least 5 cm away from electrical
ovens and should not be located
under direct sunlight.
• Please make sure that the interior
of your cooler/freezer is cleaned
thoroughly.
• If two coolers are to be installed side
by side, there should be at least 2 cm
distance between them.
• When you operate your cooler/
freezer for the first time, please
observe the following instructions
during the initial six hours.
• Its door should not be opened
frequently.
• It must be operated empty without
placing any food in it.
• Do not unplug your cooler/freezer.
If a power failure occurs out of your
control, please see the warnings in
the “Recommended solutions for
the problems” section.
• The baskets/drawers that are
provided with the chill compartment
must always be in use for low energy
consumption and for better storage
conditions.
• Food contact with the temperature
sensor in the freezer compartment
may increase energy consumption
of the appliance. Thus any contact
with the sensor(s) must be avoided.
• This product has been designed to
function at ambient temperatures
up to 43 °C (90 SDgrF). Even if the
ambient temperature falls to -15
°C, frozen food in the freezer does
not thaw thanks to its Advanced
Electronic Temperature Control
System. For the first installation, the
product should NOT be placed under
low ambient temperatures. This is
because the freezer cannot go down
to standard operation temperature.
When reaching continuous operation,
the product can be moved to another
place. Thus, later you can place
your product in the garage or an
unheated room without the concern
of causing frozen food to get rotten.
However, it is likely that above
mentioned low temperatures may
cause the freezing of the food in the
fridge compartment; thus, please
consume the food items in the fridge
in a controlled way as needed. When
ambient temperature goes back
to normal, you may change button
setting according to your need.
• If the ambient temperature is below
0°C, the food in fridge compartment
will freeze. Therefore, we recommend
not using the fridge compartment
in such low ambient temperatures.
You may continue to use the freezer
compartment as usual.
• In some models, the instrument panel
automatically turns off 5 minutes
after the door has closed. It will
be reactivated when the door has
opened or pressed on any key.

• Due to temperature change as a result of opening/closing the product door
during operation, condensation on the door/body shelves and the glass
containers is normal.
• Since hot and humid air will not directly penetrate into your product when the
doors are not opened, your product will optimize itself in conditions sufficient
to protect your food. Functions and components such as compressor, fan,
heater, defrost, lighting, display and so on will operate according to the needs to
consume minimum energy under these circumstances.

5Using your refrigerator
Setting the operating temperature
Warm Cold
The operating temperature is
regulated by the temperature control.
1 = Lowest cooling setting (Warmest
setting)
4 = Highest cooling setting (Coldest
setting)
* Additionaly activities quıck fridge
function .
Please choose the setting according
to the desired temperature.
The interior temperature also
depends on ambient temperature,
the frequency with which the door is
opened and the amount of foods kept
inside.
Frequently opening the door causes
the interior temperature to rise.
For this reason, it is recommended
to close the door again as soon as
possible after use.
The normal storage temperature of
your appliance should be -18 °C (0 °F).
Lower temperatures can be obtained
by adjusting the thermostat knob
towards Position4.
We recommend checking the
temperature with a thermometer to
ensurethatthestoragecompartments
are kept to the desired temperature.
Remember to take the reading
immediately since the thermometer
temperature will rise very rapidly after
you remove it from the freezer.
Thermostat knob
The thermostat knob is located on
the top trim.
Important:
When you press the fast-freeze
switch or adjust the set temperature,
there may be a short delay before the
compressor starts to operate. This is
normal and not a compressor fault.

EN
15
Freezing
Freezing food
You can use the appliance for
freezing fresh food as well as for
storing pre-frozen food.
Please refer to the recommendations
given on the packaging of your food.
• Attention
Do not freeze fizzy drinks, as the
bottle may burst when the liquid in it
is frozen.
Be careful with frozen products such
as coloured ice-cubes.
Do not exceed the freezing capacity
of your appliance in 24 hours. See the
rating label.
In order to maintain the quality of the
food, the freezing must be effected as
rapidly as possible.
Thus, the freezing capacity will not
be exceeded, and the temperature
inside the freezer will not rise.
• Attention
Keep the already deep-frozen food
always separated with freshly placed
food.
When deep-freezing hot food, the
cooling compressor will work until the
food is completely frozen. This can
temporarily cause excessive cooling
of the refrigeration compartment.
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 equalize and
allow the door to open normally after
a few minutes.
You will hear a vacuum sound just
after closing the door. This is quite
normal.
Fast freeze
If large amounts of fresh food are
going to be frozen, adjust the control
knob to max. 24 hours before putting
the fresh food in the fast freeze
compartment.
It is strongly recommended to
keep the knob at MAX. position at
least 24 hours to freeze maximum
amount of fresh food declared as
freezing capacity. Take special care
not to mix frozen food and fresh food.

EN
16
Remember to turn the thermostat
knob back to its previous
position once food has frozen.
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.
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) 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.
• Do not block the ventilation holes by
putting your frozen foods in front of
the ventilation holes located on the
back surface.

EN
17
• 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. Activate the quick freezing
function 24 hours before placing
your fresh foods.
2. 24 hours after pressing the
button, firstly place your food that
you want to freeze to the third
drawer from the bottom with higher
freezing capacity. If you have food
remained, place them in front of the
second drawer from the bottom.
3. The quick freezing function will
be automatically inactivated after 50
hours.
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 … 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.
• 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.
Defrosting
The ice in the freezer compartments
is automatically thawed.

EN
18
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.
