4 Preparation

4.1. What to do for energy saving

BEKO GN 163221 S - What to do for energy saving - 1

Connecting the product to electronic energy-saving systems is harmful, as it may damage the product.

  • 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.
  • The energy consumption value specified for the refrigerator was measured with the freezer compartment's upper shelf removed, other shelves and the lowest drawers in place and under maximum load. The top glass shelf can be used, depending on the shape and size of food to be frozen.
  • Depending on the product's features; defrosting frozen foods in the cooler compartment will ensure energy saving and preserve food quality.
  • The baskets/drawers provided with the chill compartment must always be in use to ensure low energy consumption and better storage conditions.
  • Food contact with the temperature sensor in the freezer compartment may increase the appliance's energy consumption. Therefore, any contact with the sensor(s) must be avoided.
  • Make sure that foods do not come into contact with the cooler compartment temperature sensor described below.

  • You must wait approximately 12 hours before taking ice from the ice/water fountain for the first time. The fountain may not discharge ice if there is insufficient ice in the ice box.
  • The 30 pieces of ice cubes (3-4 liters) taken after first operating should not be used.
  • In case of power blackout or temporary malfunction, the ice may partly melt and re-freeze. This will cause the ice pieces to merge with each other. In case of extended power blackouts or malfunction, the ice may melt and leak out. If you experience this problem, remove the ice in the ice box and clean the box.

When the ice dispenser does not work properly

If you do not remove ice cubes for a long time, they will cause formation of ice chunks. In this case, please remove the ice stock reservoir in accordance with the instructions given above, separate the ice chunks, discard the inseparable ice and put the ice cubes back into the ice stock reservoir. (Figure 4)

Figure 4

When ice does not come out, check for any ice stuck in the canal and remove it. Regularly check the ice canal to clear the obstacles as shown in the figure 5. When using your refrigerator for the first time or when not using it for an extended period of time ice cubes may be small due to air in the pipe after connection, any air will be purged during normal use.

Discard the ice produced for approximately one day since the water pipe may contain the contaminants.

Caution!

Do not insert your hand or any other object into the ice chute or blade, as this may damage the parts or cause injury.

Do not allow children to hang on the ice dispenser or ice maker, as this may cause injury.

To prevent the ice storage bin from falling, use both hands when removing it.

If you close the door forcefully, water may spill from the ice storage bin.

Do not disassemble the ice storage bin unless necessary.

Using the product

5.16. Freezing fresh food

  • To preserve food quality, food items placed in the freezer compartment should be frozen as quickly as possible; use the rapid freeze function for this purpose.
  • Freezing food items while they are fresh will extend their storage time in the freezer compartment.
  • Pack food items in airtight containers and seal them tightly.
  • Ensure food items are packed before placing them in the freezer. Use freezer-safe containers, aluminum foil, moisture-proof paper, plastic bags, or similar packaging materials instead of traditional wrapping paper.
  • Label each food package with the date before freezing. This will help you determine the freshness of each package every time the freezer is opened. Keep older items at the front to ensure they are used first.
  • Frozen food items should be used immediately after thawing and should not be refrozen.
  • Do not freeze large quantities of food at once.

5.17. Recommendations for storing frozen foods

The compartment must be set to at least -18°C.

  1. Place the food items in the freezer as quickly as possible to avoid defrosting.
  2. Before freezing, check the "Expiry Date" on the package to make sure it is not expired.
  3. Make sure the food's packaging is not damaged.

5.18. Deep freezer details

As per the IEC 62552 standards, the freezer must have the capacity to freeze 4.5 kg of food items at -18°C or lower temperatures in 24 hours for each 100 litres of freezer compartment volume. Food items can only be preserved for extended periods at or below temperature of -18°C. You can keep the foods fresh for months (in deep freezer at or below temperatures of 18°C).

The food items to be frozen must not contact the already-frozen food inside to avoid partial defrosting.

Boil the vegetables and filter the water to extend the frozen storage time. Place the food in air-tight packages after filtering and place in the freezer. Bananas, tomatoes, lettuce, celery, boiled eggs, potatoes and similar food items should not be frozen. Freezing these food items will simply reduce the nutritional value and food quality, as well as possible spoiling which is harmful to health.
