3 USING THE APPLIANCE
3.1 Information about New Generation
Cooling Technology
Fridges with new-generation cooling
technology have a di󰀨erent 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 o󰀨, the frozen
food moved to a suitable container and
the ice which has formed in the freezer
compartment removed.
In fridges with new-generation 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.

To use for Crisper department:
If you want to use this compartment as a
Crisper, you must take the sliding cover
(indicated in the picture) from the open
position to the closed position.
While this department is used as a 0
°C department, keeping food in the
Chiller, compartment instead of the freezer
or refrigerator compartments, allows food to
retain freshness and avour for longer,
while preserving its fresh appearance.
When the Chiller tray becomes dirty,
remove it and wash with water. Water
freezes at 0°C, but food containing salt or
sugar freezes at temperatures lower than
this. The Chiller compartment can be used
for storing foods such as raw sh, lightly
pickled food, rice, and so on.
Pull the chiller shelf out towards you.
The cover will open automatically.

4 FOOD STORAGE
4.1 Refrigerator Compartment
For normal operating conditions, set the
temperature of the cooler compartment to
+4 or +6 oC.
• 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 e󰀩ciency.
• 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 sh
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.
• 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 a󰀨ected by ethylene-
releaser fruits (banana, peach, apricot,
g 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 ow
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 su󰀩cient 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.
• 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, sh, etc. should be store in 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.
The table below is a quick guide to show
you the most e󰀩cient way to store the
major food groups in your refrigerator
compartment.

NOTE:
Potatoes, onions and garlic should not

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 folios 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 e󰀩cient 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

EN - 19
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 nd
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 e󰀩cient way to store the major
food groups in your freezer compartment.
