4.1. Actions to be taken
to save energy
AConnecting the product to electronic
energy-saving system is inconvenient as
this may damage the product.
 For a freestanding appliance; ‘this refrigerating
appliance is not intended to be used as a built-
in appliance’.
 Do not leave the doors of the product open for
a long time.
 Do not put hot food or drinks in the product.
 Do not overfill the product. When the inlet air
circulation is reduced, its cooling capacity is
prevented.
 Put your food in the product in closed
containers.
 You can store maximum amount of food items
in the freezer compartment of the product
when you remove the shelf of the freezer.
Energy consumption value stated for the
product has been determined by removing
freezer shelf and under maximum food load.
There is no harm to use a shelf according to
the shapes and size of food to be frozen.
 Defrosting the frozen food in fridge
compartment will both provide energy saving
and preserve the food quality.
 This device is designed to operate at ambient
temperatures up to 43°C (90 °F). It is equipped
with Advanced Electronic Temperature Control
System allowing to keep the frozen food in the
freezer defrost even the ambient temperature
reduces to -15 °C. When first installed the
product MUST NOT be placed in low ambient
temperatures.
 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.
4Preparation
 Do not contact the foods to the fridge
compartment temperature sensor indicated in
the figure below.
4.2. First use
Before you start using your refrigerator, make
sure that preparations are made according to
the instructions in the “Safety and environmental
instructions” and “Installation” sections.
 Run the product empty without putting food
for 6 hours and do not open the door unless
necessary.
CYou will hear a sound when the
compressor starts. The liquids and gases
compressed within the cooling system may
produce sound even if the compressor is
not running and that sound is normal.
CThe front edges of the product may be hot.
This is normal. These areas are designed
to be heated to prevent condensation.

5Use of the Product
5.1. Temperature adjustment knob
The internal temperature of your refrigerator will vary
due to the following reasons:
 Seasonal temperatures,
 Frequently opening the door and the door
remaining open for a long time,
 Dishes put hot in your refrigerator before
cooling down to room temperature,
 The location of the refrigerator in the room
(such as exposure to the sun’s heat).
 You can adjust the internal temperature which
varies due to these reasons by the adjustment
knob.
The numbers around the adjustment knob shows the
degree of temperature as “°C”.
If the ambient temperature is 25 °C, it is
recommended to use the temperature adjustment
knob of the refrigerator at 4 °C.
In other ambient temperatures, this value can be
increased or decreased according to need.
5.2. Fast freezing
If you want to freeze large quantities of fresh food,
put the temperature adjustment knob to ( )
position 24 hours before putting the food in the fast
freezing compartment.
In order to freeze maximum amount of fresh
food specified as the freezing capacity, it is
recommended to keep the knob in this position for
at least 24 hours.
Pay particular attention to not mixing food sold as
frozen and the fresh food.
Once the food is frozen, remember to bring the
temperature adjustment knob to its previous
position.

Use of the Product
14 /22 EN Refrigerator / User Manual
5.3. Holiday function
If the doors of the product is not opened for at
least 12 hours after the temperature adjustment
knob is put to the warmest ( ) position,
Holiday function will be activated automatically.
To cancel the function, the adjustment of the knob
must be changed.
When the holiday function is active, storing food in
the fridge compartment is not recommended.
5.4. Snow defrosting
During the cooling of your refrigerator, water
droplets and snow up to 7-8 mm thickness are
formed on the inside back wall of the fridge
compartment. This formation is normal due to
the cooling system.
The snow formed in the fridge compartment
is defrosted at regular intervals by means of
the automatic defrost system contained in the
interior rear wall. Therefore, there is no need of
scraping snow and cleaning water droplets by
the user.
