cause damage on the
product.
• 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.

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.
CThe ambient temperature
of the room where you
install the refrigerator
should at least be
-15°C. Operating your
refrigerator under colder

5.2 Dual cooling system
Your refrigerator is equipped with
three separate cooling systems to
cool the fresh food compartment,
frozen food compartment and
multi zone compartment. Thus,
air and odour in the fresh food
compartment and frozen food
compartment do not get mixed.
Thanks to these two separate
cooling systems, cooling speed
is much higher then other
refrigerators. Also additional
power saving is provided since
the defrosting is performed
individually.
5.3 Freezing fresh food
• Wrap the food or place them in a
covered container before putting
them in the refrigerator.
• Hot food and beverages
must cool down to the room
temperature before putting
them in the refrigerator.
• The food that you want to freeze
must be fresh and in good
quality.
• Divided the food into portions
according to your family’s daily
or meal based consumption
needs.
• Pack the food in an airtight
manner to prevent them from
drying even if they are going to
be stored for a short time.
• Materials to be used for
packaging must be tear-proof
and resistant to cold, humidity,
odour, oils and acids and they
must also be airtight. Moreover,
they must be well closed and
they must be made from easy-
to-use materials that are
suitable for deep-freezers.
• Frozen food must be used
immediately after they are
thawed and they should never
be re-frozen.
• Do not freeze too large
quantities of food at one time.
The quality of the food is best
preserved when it is frozen right
through to the core as quickly as
possible.
• Placing warm food into the
freezer compartment causes
the cooling system to operate
continuously until the food is
frozen solid.
