1.7 General information about new NO FROST Technology
New No-Frost fridges differ from other static fridges in their operating principle.
In normal fridges, the humidity entering the fridge through the door openings and the
humidity of the food causes freezing in the freezer compartment. To defrost the ice in the
freezer department, you should turn off the fridge, take the food that needs to be kept in
a constant temperature out of the fridge, and remove the ice gathered in the freezer
compartment periodically.
The situation in the freezer compartment is completely different in no-frost fridges.
Dry and cool air is blown through the freezer compartments via fan. Cold air dispersed
homogeneously between the shelves cools all your food equally and uniformly, thus prevents
humidity and freezing. The freezer compartment is cooled by statically. The air is distributed
homogeneously between the racks in the cooling section with the fan, and all your foods can
be cooled evenly and properly.
As there is no air passage between the
sections, the smells on the 2 different parts of
your refrigerator do not mix.
Therefore your New No-Frost fridge allows
you ease of use, besides its huge volume and
stylish appearance.

PLACING THE FOOD
PART 3.
3.1 Cooler Compartment
•Under normal operation conditions, it is enough to set the temperature of cooler
compartment to +4 / +6 oC.
• In order to avoid frosting, humidification and odour, food should be placed in the fridge
in closed containers or covered with appropriate material.
•Hot food and beverages should be cooled to room temperature before being placed in
the fridge.
•Vegetables and fruits can be placed into crisper without packaging.
Important Note:
•Cover the liquid and stews when you put them on fridge. Otherwise, the humidity
amount inside the fridge increases. This causes the fridge to operate more
efficiently. Covering the food and beverages also allow you to protect their taste and
flavour. Potatoes, onion and garlic shouldn’t be kept in the fridge.
Some suggestions on the placing and storing of your food in the fridge compartment
are supplied below.
Food Maximum Storage time Where to place in the
fridge department
Vegetables and fruits 1 week Vegetable bin
Meat and sh 2 - 3 Days
Wrapped in plastic foil or bags or in

Some suggestions on the placing and storing of your food in the freezer compartment are
supplied pages 20, 21 and 22.
3.2 Deep-Freeze Compartments
•The freezer compartment is used for storing frozen foods for a long time or for producing
ice.
•If you leave the door of freezer open for a long time, frosting will appear on the lower
stage of freezer. Thus, air circulation will be obstructed. In order to avoid this, first unplug
the cord and wait until thawed. After ice melts, you should clean the freezer.
•You can remove baskets, cover, etc. to increase storing volume of freezer.
• Volume specified on the product label shows the value without baskets, covers, etc.
IMPORTANT
Never refreeze frozen food after thawing them.
It may be hazardous to your health as it may lead to food poisoning.
•Do not place hot food to the freezer before cooling them. This may cause other frozen
food in the freezer to decay.
•When buying frozen food, make sure that it was frozen under appropriate conditions and
its package is not torn.
• In case of humidification on package of frozen food and a smelly odour, food may have
been stored under inappropriate conditions beforehand and it may have gotten decayed.
Do not buy those kinds 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.
•Note: If frozen food taken out of freezer orrefrigerator is placed into bottom compartment
one day before, it promotes refrigerator by preserving its temperature there, so energy
will be saved. If you put the material in the deep freeze to an open area, energy loss
occurs.
STORING THE FOOD
Some spices in cooked food (aniseed, basil, dill, vinegar, spice mix, ginger, garlic, onion,
mustard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, bologna sausage etc.) may have a foul taste when
stored for a long time. Therefore, frozen food should be spiced just a little or spice should be
added after the food is thawed.
The storing time for the food depends on the oil used. Margarines, veal fat, olive oil and
butter are suitable, peanut oil and lard are not suitable.
Cooked food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic containers, other food should be frozen
wrapped in plastic foil or in plastic bags.
