5 Preparation
Read the “Safety Instructions” sec-
tion first!
5.1 What To Do For Energy Saving
Connecting the product to elec-
tronic energy-saving systems is
harmful, as it may damage the
product.
• This refrigerating appliance is not inten-
ded to be used as a built in appliance.
• Do not keep the refrigerator doors open
for long periods.
• Do not place hot food or beverages into
the refrigerator.
• Do not overfill the refrigerator; blocking
the internal air flow will reduce cooling
capacity.
• Since hot and humid air will not directly
penetrate into your product when the
doors are not opened, your product will
optimize itself in conditions sufficient to
protect your food. Under these circum-
stances, functions and components such
as compressor, fan, heater, defrost, light-
ing, display and so on will operate ac-
cording to the needs by consuming min-
imum energy.
• In case that multiple options are present,
glass shelves must be placed so that the
air outlets at the rear wall are not blocked
and preferably, in a way that air outlets
remain below the glass shelf. This com-
bination may help improving air distribu-
tion and energy efficiency.
• Using the below drawer when storing is
strongly recommended.
• Food shall be stored using the drawers in
the cooler compartment in order to en-
sure energy saving and protect food in
better conditions.
5.2 First Use
Before using your refrigerator, make sure
the necessary preparations are made in line
with the instructions in "Safety and Environ-
mental Instructions" and "Installation" sec-
tions.
• Keep the product running without placing
any food inside for 6 hours and do not
open the door, unless absolutely neces-
sary.
• The temperature change caused by open-
ing and closing of the door while using
the product may normally lead to con-
densation on door/body shelves and
glassware placed in the product.
A sound will be heard when the
compressor is engaged. It is nor-
mal for the product to make noise
even if the compressor is not run-
ning, as fluid and gas may be com-
pressed in the cooling system.
It is normal for the front edges of
the refrigerator to be warm. These
areas are designed to warm up in
order to prevent condensation.

5.4 Hints and Tips
Hints for energy saving
• Most efficient use of energy is ensured in
the configuration with the drawers in the
bottom part of the appliance and shelves
evenly distributed. Position of the door
bins does not affect energy consump-
tion.
• Do not open the door frequently or leave
it open longer than necessary.
• Do not set too high temperature to save
energy unless it is required by the charac-
teristics of the food.
• If the ambient temperature is high and
the temperature control is set to low tem-
perature and the appliance is fully loaded,
the compressor may run continuously,
causing frost or ice formation on the
evaporator. In this case, set the temperat-
ure control toward higher temperature to
allow automatic defrosting and to save
energy this way.
• Ensure a good ventilation. Do not cover
the ventilation grilles or holes.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
• Good temperature setting that ensures
preservation of fresh food is a temperat-
ure less than or equal to +4°C.
• Higher temperature setting inside the ap-
pliance may lead to shorter shelf life of
food.
• Cover the food with packaging to pre-
serve its freshness and aroma.
• Always use closed containers for liquids
and for food, to avoid flavours or odours
in the compartment.
• To avoid the cross-contamination
between cooked and raw food, cover the
cooked food and separate it from the raw
one.
• It is recommended to defrost the food in-
side the fridge.
• Do not insert hot food inside the appli-
ance. Make sure it has cooled down at
room temperature before inserting it.
• To prevent food waste the new stock of
food should always be placed behind the
old one.
Hints for food refrigeration
• Meat (all types): wrap in a suitable pack-
aging and place it on the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer. Store meat
for at most 1 -2 days.
