4Preparation
• 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.
• 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.
• You can load maximum amount of
food to the freezer compartment
of the cooler/freezer by removing
the freezer compartment drawers.
Declared energy consumption value
of the cooler/freezer was determined

drawer and with maximum amount
of food loaded. There is no risk in
using a shelf or drawer suitable for the
shapes and sizes of the foods to be
frozen.
• Thawing frozen food in fridge
compartment will both provide energy
saving and preserve the food quality.
• Please use provided 2 pieces of cold
packs (PCM) at recommended places
in the figure when storing foodstuffs in
freezer compartments.It also helps to
keep your foodstuffs colder for more
time when electricity is off or your
appliance is unplugged.Temperature

5Using your refrigerator
Thermostat setting button
The interior temperature of your
refrigerator changes for the following
reasons;
• Seasonal temperatures,
• Frequent opening of the door and
leaving the door open for long
periods,
• Food put into the refrigerator
without cooling down to the room
temperature,
• The location of the refrigerator in the
room (e.g. exposing to sunlight).
• You may adjust the varying interior
temperature due to such reasons
by using the thermostat. Numbers
around the thermostat button
indicates the cooling degrees.
• If the ambient temperature is higher
than 32°C, turn the thermostat button
to maximum position.
• If the ambient temperature is lower
than 25°C, turn the thermostat button
to minimum position.
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.

EN
18
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.
Freezing fresh food
• It must be preferred to wrap or cover
the food before placing them in the
refrigerator.
• Hot food must cool down to the room
temperature before putting them in
the refrigerator.
• The foodstuff that you want to freeze
must be fresh and in good quality.
• Foodstuff must be divided into
portions according to the family’s daily
or meal based consumption needs.
• The foodstuff must be packaged in an
airtight manner to prevent them from
drying even if they are going to be
kept for a short time.
• Materials to be used for packaging
must be tear-proof and resistant to
cold, humidity, odor, oils and acids
and they must also be airtight.
Moreover, they must be well closed
and they must be made from easy-
to-use materials that are suitable for
deep freeze usage.
• Frozen food must be used
immediately after they are thawed and
they should never be re-frozen.
• Please observe the following
instructions to obtain the best results.
1. 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.
2. Placing warm food into the freezer
compartment causes the cooling
system to operate continuously until
the food is frozen solid.

EN
19
3. Take special care not to mix already
frozen food and fresh food.
Recommendations for
preservation of frozen food
• Prepacked commercially frozen food
should be stored in accordance
with the frozen food manufacturer's
instructions for a ( 4 star)
frozen food storage compartment.
• 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 packages in the freezer as quickly
as possible after purchase.
2. Ensure that contents are labeled and
dated.
3. Do not exceed "Use By", "Best
Before" dates on the packaging.
Defrosting
The freezer compartment defrosts
automatically.
• If frozen food is thawved, please do
not freeze again. Unthawed foods
must be consumed or cooked
immediately. It is advised that such
such foods are cooked prior to
freezing again if required.
• It is advised that provided cold
packs are used as described below.
It improves storage and freezing
performance of your freezer
compartment.
