3 USING THE APPLIANCE

3.1 Information on No-Frost technology

No-frost refrigerators differ from other static refrigerators in their operating principle. In normal refrigerators the humidity entering the refrigerators due to opening the door and the humidity inherent in the food causes freezing in the backside of air duct. To defrost the frost and ice in the backside of air duct, you are periodically required to turn off the refrigerator, place the food that needs to be kept cooled in a separately cooled. The situation is completely different in no-frost refrigerators. Dry and cold air is blown into the refrigerator compartment 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 refrigerators allows you ease of use, in addition to its huge capacity and stylish appearance.

4 FOOD STORAGE

4.1 Refrigerator Compartment

For normal operating conditions, set the temperature of the cooler compartment to +4 or +6 °C.

- To reduce humidity and avoid the consequent formation of frost, always store liquids in sealed containers in the refrigerator. Frost tends to concentrate in the coldest parts of the evaporating liquid and, in time, your appliance will require more frequent defrosting.

- Cooked dishes must remain covered when they are kept in the fridge. Do not place warm foods in the fridge. Place them when they are cool, otherwise the temperature/humidity inside the fridge will increase, reducing the fridge's efficiency.

- Make sure no items are in direct contact with the rear wall of the appliance as frost will develop and packaging will stick to it. Do not open the refrigerator door frequently.

- We recommend that meat and clean fish are loosely wrapped and stored on the glass shelf just above the vegetable bin where the air is cooler, as this provides the best storage conditions.

- Store loose fruit and vegetable items in the crisper containers.

- Storing fruit and vegetables separately helps prevent ethylene-sensitive vegetables (green leaves, broccoli, carrot, etc.) from being affected by ethylene-releaser fruits (banana, peach, apricot, fig, etc.).

- Do not put wet vegetables into the refrigerator.

- Storage time for all food products depends on the initial quality of the food and an uninterrupted refrigeration cycle before refrigerator storage.

- Water leaking from meat may contaminate other products in the refrigerator. You should package meat products and clean any leakages on the shelves.

- Do not put food in front of the air flow passage.

- Consume packaged foods before the recommended expiry date.

Do not allow food to come into contact with the temperature sensor, which is located in the refrigerator compartment, in order to keep the refrigerator compartment at optimum temperature.

• For normal working conditions, it will be sufficient to adjust the temperature setting of your refrigerator to +4 °C.
• The temperature of the fridge compartment should be in the range of 0-8 °C, fresh foods below 0 °C are iced and rotted, bacterial load increases above 8 °C, and spoils.

- Do not put hot food in the refrigerator immediately, wait for the temperature to pass outside. Hot foods increase the degree of your refrigerator and cause food poisoning and unnecessary spoiling of the food.

- Meat, fish, etc. should be stored in the chiller compartment of the food, and the vegetable compartment is preferred for vegetables. (if available)

- To prevent cross contamination, meat products and fruit vegetables are not stored together.

- Foods should be placed in the refrigerator in closed containers or covered to prevent moisture and odors.

The table below is a quick guide to show you the most efficient way to store the major food groups in your refrigerator compartment.

Food	Maximum storage time	How and where to store
Vegetables and fruits	1 week Vegetable bin
Meat and fish	2 - 3 days	Wrap in plastic foil, bags, or in a meat container and store on the glass shelf
Fresh cheese	3 - 4 days	On the designated door shelf
Butter and margarine	1 week	On the designated door shelf

Food	Maximum storage time	How and where to store
Bottled products e.g. milk and yoghurt	Until the expiry date recommended by the producer	On the designated door shelf
Eggs 1 month		On the designated egg shelf
Cooked food	2 days All shelves

NOTE:

Potatoes, onions and garlic should not be stored in the refrigerator.

5 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Disconnect the unit from the power supply before cleaning.

Do not wash your appliance by pouring water on it.

Do not use abrasive products, detergents, or soaps for cleaning the surface. After washing, rinse with clean water or dry carefully. When cleaning is needed, reconnect the plug to the supply with dry hands.

• Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical components.
• The appliance should be cleaned regularly using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water.

If you are experiencing a problem with your appliance, please check the following before contacting the after-sales service.

Your appliance is not operating

Check if:

• There is power
• The plug is correctly placed in the socket
• The plug fuse or the mains fuse has blown

- The socket is defective. To check this, plug another working appliance into the same socket.

The appliance performs poorly. Check if:

• The appliance is overloaded • The appliance door is closed properly - There is any dust on the condenser - There is enough space near the rear and side walls.

Your appliance is operating noisily

Normal noises

Cracking noise occurs:

• During automatic defrosting - When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).

Short cracking noise occurs: When the thermostat switches the compressor on/off.

Motor noise: Indicates the compressor is operating normally. The compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is first activated.

Bubbling noise and splash occurs:

Due to the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of the system.

Water flowing noise occurs: Due to water flowing to the evaporation container. This noise is normal during defrosting.

Air blowing noise occurs: In some models, this is normal during operation of the system due to the circulation of air.

The edges of the appliance in contact with the door joint are warm.

Especially during summer (warm seasons), the surfaces in contact with the door joint may become warmer during the operation of the compressor. This is normal.

There is a build-up of humidity inside the appliance.

Check if:

• All food is packed properly. Containers must be dry before being placed in the appliance.
• The appliance door is opened frequently.

Humidity of the room enters the appliance when the doors are opened. Humidity increases faster when the doors are opened more frequently, especially if the humidity of the room is high.

The door does not open or close properly.

Check if:

• There is food or packaging preventing the door from closing. The door joints are broken or torn.
• Your appliance is on a level surface.
• The compressor can run loudly or the noise of the compressor/refrigerator may increase in some models during operating in some conditions such as when the product is plugged in for the first time, depending on change in the ambient temperature or change of usage. That is normal; when the refrigerator reaches the required temperature, the noise decreases automatically.

Recommendations

• If the appliance is switched off or unplugged, wait at least 5 minutes before plugging the appliance in or restarting it in order to prevent damage to the compressor.
• If you will not use your appliance for a long time (e.g. in summer holidays) unplug it. Clean your appliance according to chapter cleaning and leave the door open to prevent humidity and smell.
• If a problem persists after you have followed all the above instructions, please consult the nearest authorised service centre.
• The appliance you have purchased is designed for domestic use only. It is not suitable for commercial or common use. If the consumer uses the appliance in a way that does not comply with this, we emphasise that the manufacturer and the dealer will not be responsible for any repair and failure within the guarantee period.

8 TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY

1. Install the appliance in a cool, well-ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight and not near a heat source (such as a radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating plate should be used.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool before placing them inside the appliance.
3. Place thawing food in the refrigerator compartment if available. The low temperature of the frozen food will help cool the refrigerator compartment while the food is thawing. This will save energy. Frozen food left to thaw outside of the appliance will result in a waste of energy.
4. Drinks or other liquids should be covered when inside the appliance. If left uncovered, the humidity inside the appliance will increase, therefore the appliance uses more energy. Keeping drinks and other liquids covered helps preserve their smell and taste.
5. Avoid keeping the doors open for long periods and opening the doors too frequently as warm air will enter the appliance and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
6. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (such as the crisper and chiller if available) closed.
7. The door gasket must be clean and pliable. In case of wear, replace the gasket.
