Installing and operating your freezer
Before starting to use your fridge, you should pay attention to the following points:
• Operating voltage for your fridge is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
• Mains cord of your fridge 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 stabilized in an appropriate height to allow your
freezer operate in a stable and proper way. You can adjust the legs by turning them
clockwise (or in the opposite direction). This should be done before placing food in
the fridge.
• Before using your freezer, wipe all parts 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 distance adjustment plastic (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.

PART- 2. THE VARIOUS FUNCTION AND POSSIBILITIES
Thermostat Setting
1
2
3
The freezer thermostat automatically regulates the inside temperature of the
compartments. By rotating the knob from position 1 to 3, colder temperatures can be
obtained. “•” position shows thermostat is closed and no cooling will be available.
Freezer Thermostat Setting;
• : The appliance is closed
1 : For short-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set the knob
between minimum and medium position.
2 : For long-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set knob to
medium position.
3 : For freezing the fresh food. The appliance will work longer. So after you get the
cold condition you must position to previous position.
Note that; the ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how often
the door is opened, affects the temperature in the freezer compartment. If required, change
the temperature setting.
Before Using your Freezer
• When it is operated for the first time or after transportation, keep
your fridge 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 fridge starts to cool.

PART- 3. ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE
• The use of freezer is, storing of deep-frozen or frozen food for long periods of time
and making ice cubes.
• 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 you
will 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.
• 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.
• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and the food which is wanted to
freeze) more quickly because of the freezing room’s greater freezing power. Fast
freezing shelves are the middle drawers of the freezer compartment (see in page
12).
• While freezing food ; Maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24
hours is indicated on the appliance label.
• For optimum appliance performance to reach maximum freezing capacity, turn the
thermostat knob to position max 24 hours before placing fresh food in the freezer.
• After placing fresh food in the freezer, 24 hours on max position is generally sufficient,
after 24 hours, do not need to set the thermostat knob to position max.
If your freezer is not cooling enough;
Your freezer is designed to operate in the ambient temperature intervals stated in the
standards, according to the climate class stated in the information label. W e do not
recommend operating your freezer out of stated temperatures value limits in terms of
cooling effectiveness.
Climate Class Ambient Temperature (°C)
TBetween 16 and 43 (°C)
ST Between 16 and 38 (°C)
NBetween 16 and 32 (°C)
SN Between 10 and 32 (°C)

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
PART- 4.
• Disconnect unit from the power supply before cleaning.
• Do not clean the appliance by pouring water.
• The freezer compartment should be cleaned periodically using
a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water
• Clean the accessories separately with soap and
water. Do not clean them in the washing
machine.
• Do not use abrasive products, detergents or soaps. After
washing, rinse with clean water and dry carefully. W hen the
cleaning operations have been completed reconnect the plug
of the unit with dry hands.
• You should clean the condenser (back of the appliance)
with broom once a year in order to provide energy saving
and increase the productivity.
THE POWER SUPPLY MUST BE DISCONNECTED.
Attention; In order to save energy, when freezing small amounts of food, do not need to
set the thermostat knob to position max.

EN - 9 -
Defrosting the Freezer compartment
Freezer defrost process
• Small amounts of frost will accumulate inside the freezer depending upon the length
of time during which the door is left open or the amount of moisture introduced. It is
essential to ensure that no frost or ice is allowed to form at places where it will affect
the close fitting of the door seal. This might allow air to penetrate the cabinet, thus
encouraging continuous running of the compressor. Thin frost formation is quite soft
and can be removed with a brush or plastic scraper. Do not use metal or sharp
scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process.
Remove all dislodged frost from the cabinet floor .For the removal of thin frost it is not
necessary to switch off the appliance.
• For the removal of heavy ice deposits disconnect the appliance from the mains
supply and empty the contents into cardboard boxes and wrap in thick blankets or
layers of paper to keep them cold. Defrosting will be most effective if carried out
when the freezer is nearly empty, and it should be carried out as quickly as possible
to prevent undue increase in temperature of the contents.
• Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to accelerate
the defrosting process. An increase in temperature of frozen food packages during
defrosting will shorten the storage life. Provided that the contents are well wrapped
and placed in a cool area they should keep for several hours.
• Dry the inside of the compartment with a sponge or a clean cloth.
• To accelerate the defrosting process place one or more basins of warm water in the
freezer compartment.
• Examine the contents when replacing them in the freezer and if some of the packages
have thawed out it should be eaten within 24hours or be cooked and re-frozen.
• After defrosting has finished clean the inside with a solution of warm water with a little
bicarbonate of soda and then dry thoroughly. Wash all removable parts in the same
way and reassemble. Reconnect the appliance to the mains supply and leave for 2
to 3 hours on setting number 5 before introducing the food back into the freezer.

• There is enough place at the rear and side walls.
PART- 5. TRANSPORTATION AND CHANGING OF
INSTALLATION POSITION
Transportation and Changing of Installation Position
• The original packages and foamed polystyrene (PS) can be concealed if required.
• In transportation the appliance should be tied with a wide stripe or a strong rope. The
rules written on the corrugated box must be applied while transporting.
• Before transporting or changing old
installation position, all the moving objects
(ie,shelves,crisper…) should be taken out
or fixed with bands in order to prevent the
shake.
Repositioning the door
• It is not possible to change the opening direction of your freezer door, if the door
handles on your freezer are installed from the front surface of the door.
• It is possible to change the opening direction of the door on models without any
handles.
• If the door opening direction of your freezer may be changed, you should contact the
nearest Authorised Service to have the opening direction changed.

EN - 11 -
If there is noise;
The cooling gas which circulates in the cooling circuit may make a slight noise (bubbling
sound) even when the compressor is not running. Do not worry this is quite normal. If
these sounds are different check that;
• The appliance is well levelled
• Nothing is touching the rear.
• The stuffs on the appliance are vibrating.
Recommendations
• If the appliance is not used for long time (for example during the summer holidays)
unplug and clean the appliance and leave the door open to prevent the formation of
mildew and smell.
• To stop the appliance completely, unplug from main socket (for cleaning and when
the doors are left open)
Conformity Information
• This equipment is designed for use at an ambient temperature within the 16°C -
43°C range.
• The appliance is designed in compliance with the IEC60335-1 / IEC60335-2-24,
2004/108/EC standards.
Tips for saving energy
1– Install the appliance in a cool, well ventilated room , but not in direct sunlight and
not near heat source (radiator, cooker... etc. ). Otherwise use an insulating plate.
2– Allow ward food and drinks to cool down outside the appliance.
3– W hen thawing frozen food, place it in the refrigerator compartment. The low
temperature of the frozen food will help to cool the refrigerator compartment
when it is thawing. So it causes energy saving. If the frozen food is put out, it
causes wastage of energy.
4– When placing, drinks and slops they must be covered. Otherwise humidity in-
creases at the appliance. Therefore the working time gets longer. Also covering
drinks and slops helps to save smell and taste.
5– W hen placing food and drinks, open the appliance door as briefly as possible.
6– Keep close the covers of any different temperature compartment in the appli-
ance (crisper, chiller ...etc. ).
7– Door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
