The average temperature inside the
fridge should be around +5°C.
Please choose the setting according
to the desired temperature.
Please note that there will be
different temperatures in the cooling
area.
The coldest region is immediately
above the vegetable compartment.
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 interior temperature of your
refrigerator changes for the following
reasons;

Cooling
Food storage
The fridge compartment is for the
short-term storage of fresh food and
drinks.
Freezing
Freezing food
The freezing compartment is marked
with this symbol.
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.
Storing frozen food
The frozen food compartment is
marked with symbol.
The frozen food compartment
is suitable for the storage of pre-
frozen food. The recommendation
for storage, as stated on the food
packaging, should be observed at all
times.
Defrost
A) Fridge compartment
Fridge compartment performs full-
automatic defrosting. Water drops
and a frosting up to 7-8 mm can occur
on the inner rear wall of the fridge
compartment while your refrigerator
cools down. Such formation is normal
as a result of the cooling system.
The frost formation is defrosted by
performing automatic defrosting
with certain intervals thanks to the
automatic defrosting system of the
rear wall. User is not required to scrape
the frost or remove the water drops.
Water resulting from the defrosting
passes from the water collection
groove and flows into the evaporator
through the drain pipe and evaporates
here by itself.
Check regularly to see if the drain
pipe is clogged or not and clear it with
the stick in the hole when necessary.
Deep freezer compartment does not
perform automatic defrosting in order
to prevent decaying of the frozen food.
16 EN
Stopping your product
If your thermostat is equipped with
“0” position:
- Your product will stop operating
when you turn the thermostat button
to “0” (zero) position. Your product
will not start unless to you turn the
thermostat button to position “1” or
one of the other positions again.
If your thermostat is equipped with
“min” position:
- Unplug your product to stop it.
B) Freezer compartment
Defrosting is very straightforward
and without mess, thanks to a special
defrost collection basin.
Defrost twice a year or when a
frost layer of around 7 (1/4”) mm has
formed.
To start the defrosting procedure,
switch off the appliance 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).
Containers 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 or forks to
remove the frost.
Never use hair dryers, electrical
heaters or other such electrical
appliances for defrosting.
Sponge out the defrost water
collected in the bottom of the freezer
compartment. After defrosting, dry
the interior thoroughly.
Insert the plug into the wall socket
and switch on the electricity supply.
