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.
 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.

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.
Turbo Cooling Fan
“Turbo cooling fan is designed to
ensure homogenous distribution and
circulation of the cold air inside your
refrigerator. Operation time of the
turbo cooling fan may vary depending
on the properties of your product.
While the turbo fan works only with
the compressor in some products,
the control system determines its
operation time in some products
in accordance with the cooling
requirement. This situation is explained
on a separate warning and information
label attached on the refrigerator in
products equipped with turbo fans
running under different conditions than
the compressor.”
