You can install the egg holder on the desired door or body shelf. If it will be placed on body shelves, the lower cooler shelves are recommended.

Never place the egg holder in the freezer compartment.

5.9. Fan

The fan is designed to ensure homogeneous distribution and circulation of the cold air inside your refrigerator. The operation time of the fan may vary depending on the properties of your product.

While the fan works only with the compressor in some products, in others the control system determines its operation time in accordance with the cooling requirement.

5.10. Crisper

The crisper of the product is designed specially to keep vegetables fresh without losing their humidity. For this purpose, cool air circulation is intensified around the crisper in general.

5.11. Chiller compartment

(This feature is optional)

Use this compartment to store delicatessen that should be stored at a lower temperature or meat products that you will consume in a short time. The chiller compartment is the coolest place in your refrigerator where you can keep dairy products, meat, fish, and poultry under ideal storage conditions. Fruits and vegetables should not be stored in this compartment.

5.15. Humidity controlled crisper

(FreSHelf)

(This feature is optional)

Humidity rates of the vegetables and fruit are kept under control with the feature of humidity-controlled crisper and the food is ensured to stay fresh for longer.

We recommend placing leafy vegetables such as lettuce and spinach, as well as other vegetables sensitive to moisture loss, horizontally in the crisper as much as possible, rather than standing upright on their roots. When placing vegetables, consider their specific gravity: heavy and hard vegetables should go at the bottom of the crisper, while light and soft ones should be placed on top.

Never leave vegetables in the crisper inside their bags. If left in bags, they will decompose quickly. If you prefer not to have vegetables touch each other for hygiene reasons, use perforated paper or similar packaging materials instead of a bag.

Do not store pears, apricots, peaches, and especially apples, which produce high levels of ethylene gas, together with other vegetables and fruits in the same crisper. The ethylene gas emitted by these fruits can cause other fruits to ripen faster and spoil sooner.

5.16. Auto Icematic (This feature is optional)

The Auto Icematic allows you to easily make ice in the fridge.

Remove the water tank from the fridge compartment, fill it with water, and reinstall it to obtain ice from the Icematic.

5.23. Freezing fresh food

• In order to preserve the quality of the food, it should be frozen as quickly as possible when placed in the freezer compartment; use the fast freezing feature for this purpose.
• You may store food longer in the freezer compartment if you freeze it while it is fresh.
• Pack the food to be frozen and close the packaging so that it does not allow air to enter.
• Ensure that you pack your food before putting it in the freezer. Use freezer containers, foils, moisture-proof papers, plastic bags, and other packing materials instead of traditional wrapping papers.
• Label each pack of food by adding the date before freezing. You may distinguish the freshness of each food pack in this way when you open your freezer each time. Store the previously frozen food in the front side of the compartment to ensure that they are used first.

The freezer compartment defrosts automatically.

• Frozen food must be used immediately after they are thawed and they should not be re-frozen.
• Do not freeze too large quantities of food at one time.

Freezer Compartment Setting	Fridge compartment Setting	Remarks
-18°C 4°C This is	the normal recommended setting.
-20,-22 or -24°C	4°C	These settings are recommended when the ambient temperature exceeds 30°C.
Quick Freeze 4°C		Use when you wish to freeze your food in a short time. Your product will return to its previous mode when the process is over.

It is possible to preserve the food for a long time only at -18°C or lower temperatures.

You can keep the freshness of food for many months (at -18°C or lower temperatures in the deep freeze).

Foods to be frozen should not be allowed to come in contact with the previously frozen items to prevent them from getting thawed partially.

Boil the vegetables and drain their water in order to store vegetables for a longer time as frozen. After draining their water, put them in air-proof packages and place them inside the freezer. Food such as bananas, tomatoes, lettuce, celery, boiled eggs, potatoes are not suitable for freezing. When these foods are frozen, only their nutritional value and taste shall be affected negatively. They shall not be spoiled so that they would create a risk for human health.

6 Maintenance and cleaning

Service life of the product is increase if it is regularly cleaned

WARNING: First unplug the product before cleaning your refrigerator.

• Never use any sharp and abrasive tools, soap, household cleaners, detergent, and wax polish for cleaning.
• Dissolve one teaspoon of carbonate in half a liter of water. Soak a cloth with the solution and wring it thoroughly. Wipe the interior of the appliance with this cloth and then dry it thoroughly.
• Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical items.
• Clean the door with a damp cloth. To remove door and body shelves, remove all of their contents. Remove door shelves by moving them upwards. After cleaning, slide them from top to bottom to install.
• Never use cleaning agents or water that contain chlorine to clean the outer surfaces and chromium coated parts of the product. Chlorine causes corrosion on such metal surfaces.
• Do not use sharp, abrasive tools, soap, household cleaning agents, detergents, kerosene, fuel oil, varnish, etc. to prevent removal and deformation of the prints on the plastic parts. Use lukewarm water and a soft cloth for cleaning and then wipe it dry.

6.1. Avoiding bad odors

Materials that may cause odor are not used in the production of our appliances. However, due to inappropriate food preserving conditions and not cleaning the inner surface of the appliance as required can bring forth the problem of odor.

Therefore, clean the refrigerator with carbonate dissolved in water every 15 days.

• Keep the food in closed containers. Microorganisms spreading out from uncovered containers can cause unpleasant odours.
• Never keep the food that have expired best before dates and spoiled in the refrigerator.

6.2. Protecting the plastic surfaces

Clean with warm water immediately as the oil may cause damage on the surface when it is poured on plastic surfaces.

6.3. Door Glasses

Remove the protective foil on the glasses.

There is a coating on the surface of the glasses. This coating minimizes stain build-up and helps to remove possible stains and dirt easily. Glasses that are not protected with such a coating may be subject to persistent binding of air or water based organic or inorganic dirt such as limescale, mineral salts, unburned hydrocarbons, metal oxides and silicones that can easily and quickly cause stains or material damage. Keeping the glass clean becomes too difficult despite regular cleaning. Consequently, the appearance and transparency of the glass deteriorates. Harsh and corrosive cleaning methods and compounds will intensify these defects and speed up the deterioration process.

Water-based cleaning products that are not alkaline and corrosive must be used for regular cleaning purposes.

Non-alkaline and non-corrosive materials must be used for cleaning so that the

6 Maintenance and cleaning

service life of this coating lasts for a long time.

These glasses are tempered to increase their durability against impacts and breaking. A safety film is also applied to their rear surfaces as an extra safety measure in order to prevent them from causing damage to their surroundings in case of breakage.

*Alkali is a base that forms hydroxide ions (OH ^- ) when it is dissolved in water. Li (Lithium), Na (Sodium), K (Potassium), Rb (Rubidium), Cs (Cesium) and artificial and radioactive Fr (Francium) metals are called ALKALI METALS.
