Installing and operating your freezer
Before starting to use your freezer, you should pay attention to the following points:
• Operating voltage for your freezer is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
• Mains cord of your freezer has a grounded plug. This plug should be used with a
grounded receptacle that has a 16 ampere fuse minimum. If you don’t have a
receptacle confirming with this, please have it done by a qualified electrician.
• We do not take the responsibility of the damages that occur due to ungrounded
usage.
• Place your freezer in a place that it would not be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Your appliance should be at least 50 cm away from stoves, Gas ovens
and heater cores, and should be at least 5 cm away from electrical
ovens.
• Your freezer should never be used outdoors or left under the rain.
• When your freezer is placed next to a deep freezer, there should be at
least 2 cm between them to prevent humidity on the outer surface.
• Do not place anything on your freezer, and install your freezer in a suitable place so
that at least 15 cm is available on the upper side.
• The adjustable front legs should be adjusted to make sure your appliance is level
and stable. You can adjust the legs by turning them clockwise (or in the opposite
direction). This should be done before placing food in the freezer.
• Before using your freezer, wipe all parts back with warm water added with a tea
spoonful of sodium bicarbonate, and then rinse with clean water and dry. Place all
parts after cleaning.
• Install the plastic distance guide (the part with black vanes at the
rear) by turning it 90° as shown in the figure to prevent the
condenser from touching the wall.
• Freezer should be placed against a wall with a free distance not
exceeding 75 mm.

EN - 6 -
Before Using your freezer
• When it is operated for the first time or after transportation, keep
your freezer in the upright position for 3 hours and plug it on to
allow efficient operation. Otherwise, you may damage the
compressor.
• Your freezer may have a smell when it is operated for the first time; the smell will fade
away when your freezer starts to cool.
Information on No-Frost Technology
No-frost freezers differ from other static freezers in their operating
principle.
In normal freezers, the humidity entering the freezer in the door
openings and the humidity of the food causes freezing in the
freezer. To defrost the snow and ice in the freezer, you should
turn off the freezer, take the food that needs to be kept in a
constant temperature off the freezer, and remove the ice gathered
in the freezer periodically.
The situation is completely different in no-frost freezers. Dry and
cold air is blowed to the freezer homogeneously from several
points via a blower fan. Cold air dispersed homogeneously
even between the shelves cools all your food equally and uniformly,
thus prevents humidity and freezing.
Therefore your no-frost freezer allows you ease of use, besides
its huge volume and stylish appearance.

CHAPTER 3. PLACING THE FOOD
• Use your freezer to keep frozen food for a long time and to produce ice.
• Do not place food you want to freeze next to frozen food.
• You should freeze your food (meat, minced meat, fish etc) in portions that allow
consuming in a time.
• Do not put fresh and warm food with frozen food side by side as it can thaw the frozen
food.
• While freezing fresh food (i.e. meat, fish and mincemeat) divide them in parts in
order to use in one time.
• For storing the frozen food; the instructions shown on frozen food packages should
always be followed carefully and if no information is provided, food should not be
stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
• Maximum load; if you want to load large quantities and use the maximum net capacity,
you can remove the drawers (Except the bottom one). You can store bulky items
directly on the shelves.
• When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures
and that the packing is intact.
• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality
of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the shortest
possible time.
• If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling it is
probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that
the contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting,
how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time required to
transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions
printed on the package and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
• If you would use maximum freezing capacity of your freezer
• Take the frozen food in the upper basket to other baskets and activate “Fast Freezing”
mode. “Fast Freezing” mode will be deactivated automatically after 24 hours. Place
the food you want to freeze to the upper basket of the freezer without exceeding the
freezing capacity of your freezer. (Your freezer has the capacity to freeze 15 kg at 25°C
and 14 kg at 32°C) Then reactivate the “Fast Freezing” mode. You can put your food
next to other frozen food after they are frozen (minimum 24 hours after “Fast Freezing”
mode is activated for the 2nd time).
• If you would freeze about 3 kg food in your freezer:
• You can place your food without touching other frozen food and activate “Fast Freezing”
mode. You can put your food next to other frozen food after they are frozen (after
minimum 24 hours).
• Do not re-freeze the frozen goods after being melted. This may cause health issues
like food poisoning.
• Do not place hot food to the freezer before cooling them. This may cause the spoiling
of food frozen before in the freezer.

EN - 11 -
• When you are buying frozen food, make sure that they frozen in proper conditions
and the package is undamaged.
• Follow the instructions for storing conditions on the package of the frozen food while
storing them. If there is no explanation, food must be consumed in a short time.
• If the package of frozen food is humid and smells bad, it may be stored under
inappropriate conditions and spoiled. Do not buy this kind of food!
• Storing time for frozen food may differ according to the ambient temperature, frequency
of door openings, thermostat adjustments, type of food and the time between the
buying of the food and placing of the food in the freezer. Always follow instructions on
the package and do not exceed storing period.
For A+ models
• If there is a power cut or malfunction, do not open the door. This will help maintain the
temperature inside the freezer, ensuring that foods are conserved for about 9,5
hours at 25°C ambient temperature and about 8 hours at 32°C ambient temperature.
Do not re-freeze food that is defrosting or that has already been defrosted. These
foods must be cooked and eaten.

If your freezer is operating too loudly;
Normal Noises
Cracking (Ice cracking) Noise:
• During automatic defrosting.
• When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).
Short cracking: Heard when the thermostat switches the compressor on/off.
Compressor noise: Normal motor noise. This noise means that the compressor
operates normally Compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is
activated.
Bubbling noise and splash: This noise is caused by the flow of the refrigerant in the
tubes of the system.
Water flow noise: Normal flow noise of water flowing to the evaporation container
during defrosting. This noise can be heard during defrosting.
Air Blow Noise: Normal fan noise. This noise can be heard in No-Frost freezer during
