Things to be done for energy
saving
• Pay attention not to open doors very frequently and do not leave the
doors open for a long time.When
doors are open, warm air enters
the fridge/freezer cabinets and the appliance runs more to cool down
the foodstuffs.This yields more
energy consumption.Thus please do
not open doors frequnetly and for
a long time in order to save energy
and maintain foods at ideal storage
temperature.
• Do not put hot food or drinks in your refrigerator.
• Do not overload your refrigerator so that the air circulation inside of it is not
prevented.
• Do not install your refrigerator under direct sunlight or near heat
emitting appliances such as ovens,
dishwashers or radiators.
• Pay attention to keep your food in closed containers.
• Thawing frozen food in fridge compartment will both provide energy
saving and preserve the food quality.
• For loading maximum foodstuff in your freezer compartment, middle
drawer may be removed. Declared
energy consumption value of your
refrigerator is determined while the
freezer compartment is loaded
without middle drawer for maximum
loading configuration.
• It is highly recommended that bottom and top drawers are always used in
place when loading. Middle drawer is
provided for ease of use if needed. • Recommended temperature setting is -20 °C for freezer
compartment.Energy
consumption of your appliance
is declared while temperature
is set to -18 °C for low ambient
temperature conditions.
• Please use provided 2 pieces of cold pack (PCM) at
recommended places below
when storing foodstuffs inside
of freezer top drawer.They help
to keep your appliance’s energy
consumption lower.

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.
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.
