5Using your refrigerator
Dual protection
Hygiene : Odour filter in the air duct of
the fridge compartment helps to clean
the air in the refrigerator. This filter
reduces the formation of bad odours
by means of its coating.
Silver: Inner surfaces and crispers
of the refrigerator are rendered
antibacterial by means of the silver-
ion additive. Thus, growth and
reproduction of bacteria on interior
body parts and crisper are prevented.
Temperature setting button
Temperature setting button allows you
to make the temperature setting of
your refrigerator.
Setting the temperature of
your refrigerator
The overall temperature setting of your
refrigerator is made by means of the
temperature setting button on the right
wall of the fridge compartment. This
button has 5 different temperature
setting position. Select the position
suitable to your needs.
Dual cooling system
Your refrigerator is equipped with
two separate cooling systems to
cool the fresh food compartment and
freezer compartment. Thus, air in the
fresh food compartment and freezer
compartment do not get mixed.
Thanks to these two separate cooling
systems, cooling speed is much higher
then other refrigerators. Odours in the
compartments do not get mixed. Also
additional power saving is provided
since the automatic defrosting is
performed individually.

EN
13
Chill compartment
You can increase the inner volume
of your refrigerator by removing the
desired snack compartment. Pull the
compartment towards yourself until it
is stopped by the stopper. Raise the
front part for approximately 1 cm and
pull the compartment towards yourself
again to remove it completely.
You can place the food that you want
to freeze in order to prepare them for
freezing in these compartments. You
can also use these compartments
if you want to store your food at a
temperature a few degrees below the
fridge compartment.
Odour filter
Odour filter in the air duct of the fridge
compartment prevents the build-up of
unpleasant odours in the refrigerator.
Rotary storage container
Sliding body shelf can be moved to left
or right in order to allow you place long
bottles, jars or boxes to a lower shelf
(Fig. 1)
You can reach the food that you have
placed into the shelf by grabbing and
turning it from its right edge (Fig.2).
When you want to load or remove it to
clean, turn it by 90 degrees, raise it up
and pull towards yourself (Fig. 3-4).

Movable Body shelf:
When you need to expand the
distance between two shelves,
movable body shelf allows you
to move glass shelf up and down
without removing it. To move down
the body shelf, pull it towards yourself
in a balanced way by holding with
both hands (1); when the glass shelf
reaches the frontmost position, it will
move downwards by means of inclined
surface (2). To move the shelf to an
upper position, again by holding with
both hands in a balanced way, move
it upwards on the inclined surface
and push the glass shelf to insert it
into the housing at the end of inclined
surface. Make sure that movable body
shelf is always parallel to the ground;
otherwise materials on the shelf might
fall down. When you need to move the
body shelf up or down, remove the
items on the shelf.

Icematic and ice storage
container
Using the Icematic
* Fill the Icematic with water and place
it into its seat. Your ice will be ready
approximately in two hours. Do not
remove the Icematic from its seating to
take ice.
* Turn the knobs on it clockwise by 90
degrees.
Ice cubes in the cells will fall down into
the ice storage container below.
* You may take out the ice storage
container and serve the ice cubes.
* If you wish, you may keep the ice
cubes in the ice storage container.
Ice storage container
Ice storage container is only intended
for accumulating the ice cubes. Do not
put water in it. Otherwise, it will break.
Crisper humidity control
sliders
Using the crisper humidity control
sliders
Crisper of your refrigerator is designed
specially to keep your vegetables fresh
without loosing their humidity. Cold air
circulates basically around the crisper
and the amount of the cold air passing
through the crisper is controlled by the
sliders on the front side of the crisper
cover.
You can adjust the humidity control
sliders to a suitable position according
to the humidity and cooling condition
of your food in the crisper.
If you want your food in the crisper
to cool more, open the holes of the
humidity control sliders and if you
want them to cool less and keep their
humidity for a longer time, close the
holes.

EN
16
Water dispenser
Water dispenser is a very useful feature
to obtain chilled water without opening
the door of your fridge. Since you do
not have to open the door of your
fridge frequently, you also save on
electricitiy. Filling in the water tank of water
dispenser
Open the cap of the water tank as
illustrated in the figure. Fill in with pure
and clean drinking water. Close the
cap.
Caution!
• Do not fill water tank with any liquid
other than drinking water; beverages
such as fruit juice, carbonated fizzy
soda drinks, alcoholic drinks are not
suitable for use with water dispenser.
If such liquids are used, the water
dispenser will malfunction and may
be damaged beyond repair. The
guarantee does not cover such uses.
Some chemical ingredients and
additives in such drinks / beverages
may also attack and damage water
tank material.
• Only use clean pure drinking water.
• Capacity of water dispenser tank is 2.2
litres [3.8 pints], do not overfill.
• Push the water dispenser lever with
a rigid cup. If you are using a plastic
disposable cup, then push the lever
with your fingers from behind the cup.
Using the water dispenser
Push in the lever of the water
dispenser with your glass. By releasing
the lever, you cut off the dispensing.
When operating the water dispenser,
maximum flow is achieved by fully
depressing the lever. Please note, how
much water flows from the dispenser
depends on how far you depress the
lever. As the level of water in your
cup / glass rises, gently reduce the
amount of pressure on the lever to
avoid overflow. If you depress the lever
a small amount, then water will trickle;
this is perfectly normal and is not a
fault.
* OPTIONAL

EN
17
Cleaning the water tank
Remove the water tank, open the
latches on both sides and detach the
top cover mechanism from the water
tank. Clean the water tank with warm
clean water, reinstall the top cover
mechanism and fasten the latches.
Important:
Water tank and components of water
dispenser are not dishwasher-proof.
Water tray
Water that drips while using the water
dispenser accumulates in the drip tray
housing.Remove the drip tray firstly
pressing up from the front edge then
pulling towards yourself.Then clean
drip housing by a fabric or sponge that
has water absorbtion tendency.
When installing the water tank, make
sure that hooks behind it fits securely
into the hangers on the door. Make
sure that parts removed during
cleaning (if any) are installed correctly
into their original locations. Otherwise,
water may leak.
