 Do not place hot food or beverages into the
refrigerator.
 Do not overfill the refrigerator; blocking the
internal air flow will reduce cooling capacity.
 The energy consumption value specified for
the refrigerator was measured with the freezer
compartment’s upper shelf removed, other
shelves and the lowest drawers in place and
under maximum load. The top glass shelf can
be used, depending on the shape and size of
food to be frozen.
 Depending on the product’s features;
defrosting frozen foods in the cooler
compartment will ensure energy saving and
preserve food quality.
 The baskets/drawers that are provided with the
chill compartment must always be in use for
low energy consumption and for better storage
conditions.
 Since hot and humid air will not directly
penetrate into your product when the doors are
not opened, your product will optimize itself
in conditions sufficient to protect your food.
In this energy saving function, functions and
components such as compressor, fan, heater,
defrost, lighting, display and so on will operate
according to the needs to consume minimum
energy while maintaining the freshness of your
foodstuff.
 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.
 Make sure the foods are not in contact with
the cooler compartment temperature sensor
described below.
