• 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.

If your refrigerator has a fan condenser:

The condenser of your fridge is placed at the bottom of cabinet. As a result of that, details

that arranges the distance between the refrigerator and the back wall at where you place the

fridge, exist at the cover of the bottom of cabinet. You can move the fridge towards the back

wall until that point.

Plastic for distance setting

EN -7-

If your fridge doesn’t have a fan condenser, in other words, back side of your fridge

is like below:

• Install the plastic distance guide (the part with black vanes

at the rear) by turning it 90° as shown in the figure to

prevent the condenser from touching the wall.

• Refrigerator should be placed against a wall with a free

distance not exceeding 75 mm.

Before Using your Fridge

• When it is operated for the first time or after transportation, keep your

fridge in the upright position for 3 hours and plug it on to allow efficient

operation. Otherwise, you may damage the compressor.

• Your fridge may have a smell when it is operated for the first time; the smell will fade

away when your fridge starts to cool.

PART - 2. THE VARIOUS FUNCTION AND POSSIBILITIES

Information about New Generation Cooling Technology

Fridges with new generation cooling technology

have a different 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 compart-

ment. 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 tech-

nology, situation in the freezer compartment is

completely different. With the aid of fan, cold and

dry air is blown out through many points into the

freezer compartment. As a result of the homoge-

nously 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 configuration with freezer compart-

ment. 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 distri-

bution 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 genera-

tion cooling technology, gives you, ease of use

beside the huge volume and esthetic appearance.

EN -9-

Thermostat Setting

Freezer and refrigerator thermostat automatically regulates the inside temperature of the

compartments. By rotating the knob from position 1 to 5, colder temperatures can be obtained.

In cold seasons, you can set lower positions in order to decrease the energy consumption.

Thermostat level;

1 – 2 : For short-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set the knob

between minimum and medium position.

3 – 4 : For long-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set knob

medium position.

5 – MAX : For freezing the fresh food. Th appliance will work longer. After you get the cold

condition you must position to its original position.

Warnings about Temperature

Adjustments

• Temperature adjustments should be

made according to the frequency of

door openings and the quantity of

food kept inside the fridge.

• This fridge is designed to work in all

ambient temperature. In the ambi-

ent temperatures colder than -5 oC,

preserving food in the refrigerator

compartment isn’t suggested be-

cause the foods that you put into

refrigerator compartment, will have

a temperature close to ambient

temperature. Consequently, they will

freeze. You can keep your foods until

-5 oC in refrigerator compartments.

With the aid of special algorithm that

is designed by engineers, foods can

be preserved in the freezer compart-

ment, colder than -5 oC ambient

temperature.

Accessories

Icematic

• Take out the ice making tray

• Fill the water in level of line.

• Place the ice making tray in its original

position

• When ice cubes are formed, twist the lever

to drop off ice cubes into the icebox.

Note:

• Do not fill the icebox with water in order to make ice. It can be broken

• The movement of the ice maker may be difficult while the refrigerator is running. In such

a case should be cleaned by removing the glass shelves.

Removing the Ice maker

• Take out of the freezer glass shelves

• Remove the icemaker by dragging left or

right on the shelf.

You can remove the icemaker to use a larger volume of the freezer compartment.

• Do not pass to another adjustment before completing an adjustment.

• Your fridge should be operated up to 24 hours according to the ambient temperature

without interruption after being plugged in to be completely cooled. Do not open doors

of your fridge frequently and do not place much food inside it in this period.

• If the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must allow at least 5 minutes before restart-

ing or re-plugged the unit in order not to damage the compressor.

• Your fridge is designed to operate in the ambient temperature intervals stated in the

standards, according to the climate class stated in

the information label. We do not recommend operat-

ing your fridge out of stated temperatures value limits

in terms of cooling effectiveness.

• This appliance is designed for use at an ambient

temperature within the 10°C - 43°C range.

Note:

This appliance is designed to work at 43 oC ambient temperature with no problem. Below -5

oC ambient temperature, do not use refrigerator compartment as the foods that you put into

there will freeze. You can continue using freezer compartment.
