4. Preparation
4.1 Things to be done
for energy saving
A
Connecting the product
to electric energy saving
devices is risky as it may
cause damage on 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 your
refrigerator open for a long
time.
• Do not put hot food or drinks in
your refrigerator.
• Do not overload the refrigerator.
Cooling capacity will fall when
the air circulation inside is
hindered.
• Do not place the refrigerator in
places subject to direct sunlight.
Install the product at least 30
cm away from heat sources
such as hobs, ovens, heater
cores and stoves and at least 5
cm away from electrical ovens.
• Pay attention to store your
food in refrigerator in closed
containers.
• You can load maximum
amount of food to the freezer
compartment of the refrigerator
by removing the freezer
compartment drawers. Declared
energy consumption value of
the refrigerator was determined
with the freezer compartment
drawers removed,except if
available bottom 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.
• 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.
CInside of your refrigerator
must be cleaned
thoroughly.
4.2 Initial use
Before starting to use the product,
check that all preparations are
made in accordance with the
instructions in sections "Important
instructions for safety and
environment" and "Installation".
• Clean the interior of the
refrigerator as recommended in
the “Maintenance and cleaning”
section. Check that inside of it is
dry before operating it.
• Plug the refrigerator into the
grounded wall outlet. When
the door is opened the interior
illumination will turn on.

13
• Run the refrigerator without
putting any food for 6 hours
and do not open its door
unnecessarily.
CFront edges of the
refrigerator may feel
warm. This is normal.
These areas are designed
to be warm to avoid
condensation.
CYou will hear a noise
when the compressor
starts up. The liquids and
gases sealed within the
refrigeration
system may also give rise
to noise, even
if the compressor is not
running and this
is quite normal.
• 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.
Functions and components
such as compressor, fan, heater,
defrost, lighting, display and
so on will operate according
