3 USING THE APPLIANCE
3.1 Information about New
Generation NoFrost Cooling
Technology
Fridges with new-generation cooling
technology have a different operating
system to static fridges. Other (static)
fridges may experience a build up of ice in
the freezer compartment due to door
openings and humidity in the food. In such
fridges, regular defrosting is required; the
fridge must be switched off, the frozen
food moved to a suitable container and the
ice which has formed in the freezer
compartment removed.
In fridges with new-generation NoFrost
cooling technology, a fan blows dry cold
air evenly throughout the fridge and
freezer compartments. The cold air cools
your food evenly and uniformly, preventing
humidity and ice build-up.
In the refrigerator compartment, air blown
by the fan, located at the top of the
refrigerator compartment, is cooled while
passing through the gap behind
the air duct. At the same time, the air is
blown out through the holes in the air duct,
evenly spreading cool air throughout the
refrigerator compartment.
There is no air passage between the
freezer and refrigerator compartments,
therefore preventing the mixing of odours.
As a result, your fridge, with new-
generation cooling technology, provides
you with ease of use as well as a huge
volume and aesthetic appearance.

is fully frozen, reset the thermostat to its
original position.
3.2 Thermostat Setting
The thermostat automatically regulates the
temperature inside the cooler and freezer
compartments. Refrigerator temperatures
can be obtained by rotating the knob
to higher numbers; 1 to 3, 1 to 5 or SF
(Maximum numbers on the thermostat
depends on your product.)
Important note: Do not try to rotate
the knob beyond position 1, it will stop
your appliance from working.

EN - 14
Super switch
Super switch /
Low ambient Switch
Low ambient switch: You can use
your appliance even if the ambient
temperature is falling down as low
as -15°C. However at low ambient
temperatures (as -15°C), food in the
fridge compartment may freeze as this
switch is designed to protect the food in
your freezer from defrosting and re-
freezing. Please check first and then
you can consume food in the fridge
compartment. You can change the
setting of thermostat knob to suit your
needs when the ambient temperature
returns to normal.
Super freezing: If ambient temperature
is more than 16oC, this switch must
be used as a super freeze switch. For
maximum freezing capacity, please turn
on this switch before placing fresh food
in the freezer. After placing fresh food in
the freezer please turn this switch off
after a MAXIMUM of 24 hours or when
food is thoroughly frozen to save
energy efficiency.
•Your appliance is designed to operate in
the ambient temperature ranges stated in
the standards, according to the climate
class stated in the information label. It is
not recommended that your fridge is
operated in the environments which are
outside of the stated temperature ranges.
This will reduce the cooling efficiency of
the appliance.
•Temperature adjustments should be
made according to the frequency of door
openings, the quantity of food kept inside
the appliance and the ambient
temperature in the location of your
appliance.
•When the appliance is first switched on,
allow it to run for 24 hours in order to
reach operating temperature. During this
time, do not open the door and do not
keep a large quantity of food inside.
•A 5 minute delay function is applied
to prevent damage to the compressor of
your appliance when connecting
or disconnecting to mains, or when
an energy breakdown occurs. Your
appliance will begin to operate normally
after 5 minutes.

•To reduce humidity and avoid the
consequent formation of frost, always
store liquids in sealed containers in the
refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in
the coldest parts of the evaporating liquid
and, in time, your appliance will require
more frequent defrosting.
•Cooked dishes must remain covered
when they are kept in the fridge. Do not
place warm foods in fridge. Place them
when they are cool, otherwise the
temperature/humidity inside the fridge will
increases, reducing the fridge’s
efficiency.
•Make sure no items are in direct contact
with the rear wall of the appliance as frost
will develop and packaging will stick to it.
•Do not open the refrigerator door
frequently.
•We recommend that meat and clean fish
are loosely wrapped and stored on the
glass shelf just above the vegetable bin
where the air is cooler, as this provides
the best storage conditions. Unless using
the 0°c box which is the best place to
store such items.
•Store loose fruit and vegetable items in
the crisper containers.
•Storing fruit and vegetables separately
helps prevent ethylene-sensitive
vegetables (green leaves, broccoli,
carrot, etc.) being affected by ethylene-
releaser fruits (banana, peach, apricot,
fig etc.).
•Do not put wet vegetables into the
refrigerator.
•Storage time for all food products
depends on the initial quality of the food
and an uninterrupted refrigeration cycle
before refrigerator storage.
•Water leaking from meat may
contaminate other products in the
refrigerator. You should package meat
products and clean any leakages on the
shelves.
•Do not put food in front of the air flow
passage.
•Consume packaged foods before the
recommended expiry date.
•Do not allow food to come into contact
with the temperature sensor, which is
located in the refrigerator compartment, in
order to keep the refrigerator
compartment at optimum temperature.
•For normal working conditions, it will be
sufficient to adjust the temperature setting
of your refrigerator to +4 °C.
•The temperature of the fridge
compartment should be in the range of
0-8 °C, fresh foods below 0 °C are iced
and rotted, bacterial load increases above
8 °C, and spoils.
The table below is a quick guide to show
you the most efficient way to store the
major food groups in your refrigerator
compartment.

4 FOOD STORAGE
4.1 Refrigerator Compartment

EN - 17
4.2 Freezer Compartment
•The freezer is used for storing frozen
food, freezing fresh food, and making ice
cubes.
•Food in liquid form should be frozen
in plastic cups and other food should be
frozen in plastic containers or bags. For
freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh
food properly, that is the packaging
should be air tight and shouldn’t leak.
Special freezer bags, aluminum foil
polythene bags and plastic containers are
ideal.
•Do not store fresh food next to frozen food
as it can thaw the frozen food.
•Before freezing fresh food, divide it into
portions that can be consumed in one
sitting.
•Consume thawed frozen food within a
short period of time after defrosting
•Always follow the manufacturer's
instructions on food packaging when
storing frozen food. If no information is
provided food, should not be stored for
more than 3 months from the date of
purchase.
•When purchasing frozen food, make sure
that it has been stored under appropriate
conditions and that the packaging is not
damaged.
•Frozen food should be transported in
appropriate containers and placed in the
freezer as soon as possible.
•Do not purchase frozen food if the
packaging shows signs of humidity
and abnormal swelling. It is probable
that it has been stored at an unsuitable
temperature and that the contents
have deteriorated.
•The storage life of frozen food depends
on the room temperature, the
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 packaging and never exceed the
maximum storage life indicated.
•If the freezer door has been left open
for a long time or not closed properly,
frost will form and can prevent efficient
air circulation. To resolve this, unplug
the freezer and wait for it to defrost.
Clean the freezer once it has fully
defrosted.
•The freezer volume stated on the label
is the volume without baskets, covers,
and so on.
•Do not refreeze thawed food. It may
pose a danger to your health and cause
problems such as food poisoning.
NOTE: If you attempt to open the freezer
door immediately after closing it, you
will find that it will not open easily. This
is normal. Once equilibrium has been
reached, the door will open easily.
•Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze
home cooking (and any other food
which needs to be frozen quickly) more
quickly because of the freezing shelf’s
greater freezing power. Fast freezing
shelf is the bottom drawer of the freezer
compartment.
•To use the maximum capacity of the
freezer compartment, use the glass
shelves for the upper and middle section,
and use the lower basket for the bottom
section.
The table below is a quick guide to
show you the most efficient way to
store the major food groups in your freezer
compartment.
•Do not put hot food in the refrigerator
immediately, wait for the temperature
to pass outside. Hot foods increase the
degree of your refrigerator and cause
food poisoning and unnecessary spoiling
of the food.
•Meat, fish, etc. should be storedin the
chiller compartment of the food, and the
vegetable compartment is preferred for
vegetables. (if available)
•To prevent cross contamination, meat
products and fruit vegetables are not
stored together.
•Foods should be placed in the refrigerator
in closed containers or covered to
prevent moisture and odors.
