PART- 1. BEFORE USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Information on No-Frost technology
No-frost refrigerators differ from other static
refrigerators in their operating principle.
In normal fridges, the humidity entering the fridge due
to door openings and the humidity inherent in the food
causes freezing in the freezer department. To defrost
the frost and ice in the freezer compartment, you are
periodically required to turn off the fridge, place the food
that needs to be kept frozen in a separately cooled
container, and remove the ice gathered in the freezer
department.
The situation is completely different in no-frost fridges.
Dry and cold air is blown into the fridge and freezer
compartments 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 fridge allows you ease of use,
in addition to its huge capacity and stylish appearance.

• The operation voltage of your refrigerator is 220-240 V and 50 Hz.
• A specially grounded plug has been connected to the power cable of your refrigerator.
This plug should be used with a specially grounded socket of 16 amperes. If there
is no such socket in your house, please have it installed by an authorized electrician.
• Our company shall not be held responsible for damages that
may arise due to utilization with no grounding installation.
• Place your refrigerator in a suitable spot that it will not be exposed
to direct sunlight.
• It should be at least 50 cm away from heat sources such as
cookers, ovens, wing radiators and stoves and at least 5 cm
away from electrical ovens.
• Your refrigerator should not be used in the open air and should
not remain under the rain.
• If your refrigerator is juxtaposed with a deep freeze, it is
necessary to leave a space of at least 2 cm between them in
order to prevent condensation on the outer surfaces.
• Please do not place any heavy objects on your refrigerator and
place your refrigerator in a suitable spot in such a way that there
will be a free space of minimum 15 cm on the top.
• If your are going to place the refrigerator beside your kitchen
cabinets then you should keep a clearance of at least 2 cm’s
