8BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
Installing and operating your fridge
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
conrming with this, please have it done by a qualied
electrician.
• We do not take the responsibility of the damages that
occur due to ungrounded usage.
• Place your fridge 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 fridge should never be used outdoors or left under
the rain.
• When your fridge 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 fridge, and install your
fridge 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 fridge 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.

keep your fridge in the upright position for 3 hours and
plug it on to allow e󰀩cient operation. Otherwise, you
may damage the compressor.
• Your fridge may have a smell when it is operated for the
rst time; the smell will fade away when your fridge starts
to cool.
Information about New Generation Cooling
Technology
Fridges with new generation cooling technology have a
di󰀨erent working system than static fridges. In normal
fridges, humid air that enters into fridge and the water vapor
that comes out from the foods, accumulates frost formation
in freezer compartment. In order to melt this frost, in other
words defrost, the fridge has to be stopped. During the
stopping period, to keep the foods cold, user has to extract
the food to outside of fridge and user has to clear the ice
during this period.
In the fridges with new generation cooling technology,
situation in the freezer compartment is completely di󰀨erent.
With the aid of fan, cold and dry air is blown out through
many points into the freezer compartment. As a result of the
homogenously blown cold air, even in the spaces between
shelves, foods are frozen equally and correctly. On the other
hand there will be no frost formation.
In the refrigerator compartment, there will be nearly same
conguration with freezer compartment. Air, that is emitted
with the fan, located at the top of refrigerator compartment, is
cooled while passing through the gap behind the air duct. At
the same time, air is blown out through the holes on the air
duct so that cooling process is successfully completed in the
refrigerator compartment. Holes on the air duct are designed
such that the air distribution becomes homogenous in this
compartment.
As there is no air passage between freezer and refrigerator
compartment, there will be no odor mixing.
As a result of these, your fridge with new generation cooling
technology, gives you, ease of use beside the huge volume
and esthetic appearance.
