CHAPTER -3: USING THE APPLIANCE
Information on No-Frost technology
No-frost refrigerators differ from other static refrigerators in their operating principle.
In normal refrigerators the humidity entering the refrigerators due to opening the door and the
humidity inherent in the food causes freezing in the backside of air duct. To defrost the frost
and ice in the backside of air duct, you are periodically required to turn off the refrigerator,
place the food that needs to be kept cooled in a separately cooled. The situation is completely
different in no-frost refrigerators. Dry and cold air is blown into the refrigerator compartment
homogeneously and evenly from several points via a blower fan. Cold air dispersed
homogeneously and evenly between the shelves cools all of your food equally and uniformly,
thus preventing humidity and freezing. Therefore your no-frost refrigerators allows you ease
of use, in addition to its huge capacity and stylish appearance.
This appliance is not intended to be used as a built-in appliance.
General notes:
Fresh Food Compartment (Fridge): Most efcient use
of energy is ensured in the conguration with the drawers
in the bottom part of the appliance, and shelves evenly
distributed, position of door bins does not affect energy
consumption.

appliance.
CHAPTER -4: FOOD STORAGE
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.
• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at room temperature and should
be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator compartment.
• 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.
• Store loose fruit and vegetables in the crisper.
• Storing fruit and vegetables separately helps prevent ethylene-sensitive vegetables (green leaves, broccoli,
carrot, etc.) being affected 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.
• To avoid cross-contamination do not store meat products with fruit and vegetables. 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.
NOTE: Potatoes, onions and garlic should not be stored in the refrigerator.

Recommendations
• If the appliance is switched off or unplugged, wait at least 5 minutes before plugging the appliance in or
restarting it in order to prevent damage to the compressor.
• If you will not use your fridge for a long time (e.g. in summer holidays) unplug it. Clean your fridge according to
chapter cleaning and leave the door open to prevent humidity and smell.
• If a problem persists after you have followed all the above instructions, please consult the nearest authorised
service centre.
• The appliance you have purchased is designed for domestic use only. It is not suitable for commercial or
common use. If the consumer uses the appliance in a way that does not comply with this, we emphasise that
the manufacturer and the dealer will not be responsible for any repair and failure within the guarantee period.
1. Install the appliance in a cool, well-ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight and not near a heat source (such as
a radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating plate should be used.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool before placing them inside the appliance.
3. Drinks or other liquides should be covered when inside the appliance. If left uncovered, the humidity inside the
appliance will increase, therefore the appliance uses more energy. Keeping drinks and other liquids covered helps
preserve their smell and taste.
4. Avoid keeping the doors open for long periods and opening the doors too frequently as warm air will enter the
appliance and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
5. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments ( such as the crisper and chiller) closed.
6. The door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
