4 Preparation

  • For a freestanding appliance: 'This refrigerating appliance is not intended to be used as a built-in appliance.'
  • Your refrigerator should be installed at least 30 cm away from heat sources such as hobs, ovens, central heaters, and stoves, and at least 5 cm away from electrical ovens, and should not be located under direct sunlight.
  • The ambient temperature of the room where you install your refrigerator should be at least -15°C. Operating your refrigerator under colder conditions than this is not recommended.
  • Please make sure that the interior of your refrigerator is cleaned thoroughly.
  • If two refrigerators are to be installed side by side, there should be at least 2 cm distance between them.
  • When you operate your refrigerator for the first time, please observe the following instructions during the initial six hours.
  • The door should not be opened frequently.
  • It must be operated empty without any food in it.
  • Do not unplug your refrigerator. If a power failure occurs out of your control, please see the warnings in the “Recommended solutions for the problems” section.
  • Original packaging and foam materials should be kept for future transportations or moving.
  • The baskets/drawers that are provided with the chill compartment must always be in use for low energy consumption and for better storage conditions.
  • Food contact with the temperature sensor in the freezer compartment may increase energy consumption of the appliance. Thus any contact with the sensor(s) must be avoided.
  • In some models, the instrument panel automatically turns off 5 minutes after the door has closed. It will be reactivated when the door has opened or pressed on any key.
  • Due to temperature change as a result of opening/closing the product door during operation, condensation on the door/body shelves and the glass containers is normal.
  • 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. Functions and components such as compressor, fan, heater, defrost, lighting, display and so on will operate according to the needs to consume minimum energy under these circumstances.

5.1. How to Freeze Fresh Foods

  • Foods to be frozen should be divided into portions suitable for consumption and frozen in separate packages. This prevents all food from being re-frozen after thawing.
  • To preserve nutritional value, aroma, and color as much as possible, vegetables should be blanched briefly before freezing. (Blanching is not necessary for foods like cucumber and parsley.) The cooking time for vegetables frozen this way is reduced by one-third compared to fresh vegetables.
  • To extend the storage time of frozen foods, blanched vegetables must first be drained and then hermetically packaged, as with all types of food.
  • Foods should not be placed in the freezer compartment without packaging.
  • The packaging material for stored food should be airtight, thick, and durable, and should not deform with cold or humidity. Otherwise, food hardened by freezing might pierce the package. Sealing the package well is also important for secure storage.

The following packaging types are suitable for freezing food:

Polyethylene bags, aluminum foil, plastic wrap, vacuum bags, and cold-resistant storage containers with lids.

The use of the following packaging types is not recommended for freezing food:

Packaging paper, parchment paper, cellophane (gelatin paper), garbage bags, used bags, and shopping bags.

  • Hot foods should not be placed in the freezer compartment without cooling.
  • When placing unfrozen fresh foods in the freezer compartment, ensure they do not come into contact with frozen foods. A cool-pack (PCM) can be placed on the rack immediately below the quick-freeze rack to prevent them from warming up.
  • During the freezing time (24 hours), do not place other food in the freezer.
  • Place your foods on the freezing shelves or racks, spreading them out so they are not cramped (it is recommended that packages do not touch each other).
  • Frozen foods must be consumed immediately after defrosting and must never be refrozen.
  • Do not block the ventilation holes by placing frozen foods in front of them on the back surface.
  • We recommend attaching a label to the package and writing the name of the food and the freezing date.

Foods suitable for freezing:

Fish and seafood, red and white meat, poultry, vegetables, fruit, herbs, dairy products (such as cheese, butter, and strained yogurt), pastries, ready or cooked meals, potato dishes, soufflés, and desserts.

Foods not suitable for freezing:

Yogurt, sour milk, cream, mayonnaise, leafy salads, red radishes, grapes, and all fruits (such as apples, pears, and peaches).

- For foods to be frozen quickly and thoroughly, the following specified amounts per package should not be exceeded.

- Fruits and vegetables: 0.5-1 kg

- Meat: 1-1.5 kg

- A small amount of food (maximum 2 kg) can also be frozen without using the quick freezing function.

To obtain the best results, follow these instructions:

  1. Activate the quick freezing function 24 hours before placing your fresh foods.
  2. After 24 hours of pressing the button, first place the food you want to freeze on the top shelf with higher freezing capacity. If you have previously stored food, place your fresh foods starting from the back towards the front.
  3. The quick freezing function will be automatically deactivated after 25 hours.
  4. Do not try to freeze a large quantity of food at a time. Within 24 hours, this product can freeze the maximum food quantity specified as «Freezing Capacity ... kg/24 hours» on its type label. It is not convenient to put more unfrozen/fresh foods to

the freezer compartment than the quantity specified on the label.

- You can review the Meat and Fish, Vegetables and Fruits, Dairy Products tables for placing and storing your foods in the deep-freezer.

5.2. Recommendations for Preservation of Frozen Foods

  • While purchasing your frozen foods, make sure that they are frozen at appropriate temperatures and their packages are not broken.
  • Put the packages on the freezer compartment as soon as possible after purchasing them.
  • Make sure that the expiration date indicated on the packaging is not expired before consuming the packaged ready meals that you remove from the freezer compartment.
  • Your device has a freezer (4 star class) feature. However, this cooling device may also have **(2 star class) compartments. It is not suitable to freeze food in the **(2 star class) compartment of your refrigerator. This compartment can be used for foods that will be consumed in a short time, frozen foods or ice cream.

5.3. Defrosting

The ice in the freezer compartments is automatically thawed.

5.4. Deep Freezer Information

The EN 62552 standard requires (according to specific measurement conditions) that at least 4.5 kg of food for each 100 liter of freezer compartment volume can be frozen at a room temperature of 25° C in 24 hours.

5.5. Defrosting the frozen foods

Depending on the food diversity and the purpose of use, a selection can be made between the following options for defrosting:

  • At room temperature (it is not very suitable to defrost the food by leaving it at room temperature for a long time in terms of maintaining the food quality)
  • In the refrigerator
  • In the electrical oven (in models with or without fan)

• In the microwave oven

CAUTION:

  • Never put acidic beverages in glass bottles and cans into your freezer due to the risk of explosion.
  • If there is moisture and abnormal swelling in the packaging of frozen foods, it is likely that they were previously stored in improper storage conditions and their contents deteriorated. Do not consume these foods without checking.
  • Since some spices in cooked meals may change their taste when exposed to long-term storage conditions, your frozen foods should be less seasoned or the desired spices should be added to the foods after the thawing process.

6 Maintenance and cleaning

⚠️Never use gasoline, benzene or similar substances for cleaning purposes. ⚠️We recommend that you unplug the appliance before cleaning. △Never use any sharp abrasive instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent and wax polish for cleaning. Use lukewarm water to clean the cabinet of your refrigerator and wipe it dry. Use a damp cloth wrung out in a solution of one teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to one pint of water to clean the interior and wipe it dry. ⚠️ Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical items. △If your refrigerator is not going to be used for a long period of time, unplug the power cable, remove all food, clean it and leave the door ajar. Check door seals regularly to ensure they are clean and free from food particles. ⚠️To remove door racks, remove all the contents and then simply push the door rack upwards from the base. ⚠️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 part. Use lukewarm water and a soft cloth for cleaning and then wipe it dry.

Protection of plastic surfaces

Do not put liquid oils or oil-cooked meals in your refrigerator in unsealed containers as they damage the plastic surfaces of your refrigerator. In case of spilling or smearing oil on the plastic surfaces, clean and rinse the relevant part of the surface at once with warm water.
