*May not be available in all models Using the Icematic Fill the Icematic with water and place it into its seat. Your ice will be ready approximately in two hours. Do not remove the Icematic from its seating to take ice. Turn the knobs on the ice reservoirs clockwise by 90 degrees. Ice cubes in the reservoirs will fall down into the ice storage container below. You may take out the ice storage container and serve the ice cubes. If you wish, you may keep the ice cubes in the ice storage container. Ice storage container Ice storage container is only intended for accumulating the ice cubes. Do not put water in it. Otherwise, it will break.

4 Preparation • Your refrigerator should be installed at least 30 cm away from heat sources such as hobs, ovens, central heater 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 at least be 10°C. Operating your refrigerator under cooler conditions is not recommended with regard to its efficiency. • 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

5 Using your refrigerator Defrost

Thermostat setting button The interior temperature of your refrigerator changes for the following reasons; • Seasonal temperatures, • Frequent opening of the door and leaving the door open for long periods, • Food put into the refrigerator without cooling down to the room temperature, • The location of the refrigerator in the room (e.g. exposing to sunlight). • You may adjust the varying interior temperature due to such reasons by using the thermostat. Numbers around the thermostat button indicates the cooling degrees. • If the ambient temperature is higher than 32°C, turn the thermostat button to maximum position. • If the ambient temperature is lower than 25°C, turn the thermostat button to minimum position.

Fridge compartment Fridge compartment performs fullautomatic defrosting. Water drops and a frosting up to 7-8 mm can occur on the inner rear wall of the fridge compartment while your refrigerator cools down. Such formation is normal as a result of the cooling system. The frost formation is defrosted by performing automatic defrosting with certain intervals thanks to the automatic defrosting system of the rear wall. User is not required to scrape the frost or remove the water drops. Water resulting from the defrosting passes from the water collection groove and flows into the evaporator through the drain pipe and evaporates here by itself. Check regularly to see if the drain pipe is clogged or not and clear it with the stick in the hole when necessary. Deep freezer compartment does not perform automatic defrosting in order to prevent decaying of the frozen food. The freezer compartment defrosts automatically.

EN Water Dispenser *May not be available in all models

The water dispenser is a very useful feature allowing cold water on tap without opening the door of your refrigerator .As you will not have to open your refrigerator door frequently, you will have saved energy. As the level of the water in your glass/container rises, slightly lessen the pressure on the lever to prevent the overspill. If you slightly press the lever, the water will drip; this is quite normal and not a failure. Filling the water dispenser's tank Open the cover of the water tank as shown in the figure. Fill in the pure and clean drinking water. Close the cover. To avoid flowing of water by mistake, we recommend you to lock the water dispenser .

Using the water dispenser Push the lever of the water dispenser with your glass. The dispenser will cease operating once you release the lever. When operating the water dispenser, maximum flow can be obtained by pressing the lever fully. Please remember that the amount of flow from the dispenser is subject to the degree you press the lever. 17

Warning! • Do not fill the water tank with any other liquid except for water such as fruit juices, carbonated beverages or alcoholic drinks which are not suitable to use in the water dispenser. Water dispenser will be irreparably damaged if these kinds of liquids are used. Warranty does not cover such usages. Some chemical substances and additives contained in these kinds of drinks/ liquids may damage the water tank. • Use clean and pure drinking water only. • Capacity of the water tank is 2.2 Litres (3.8 pints); do not overfill. EN

• Push the arm of the water dispenser with a rigid glass. If you are using disposable plastic glasses, push the lever with your fingers from behind the glass.

Cleaning the water tank Release the tank cover from the water tank by opening latches at both sides. Remove the water tank and clean with warm and clean water. Place the water tank to its seating, install the tank cover and close the latches.

Make sure that the parts removed (if any) during cleaning are properly attached to their original places. Otherwise, water leakage may occur. Important: Components of the water tank and water dispenser should not be washed in dishwasher. Water tray Water that dripped while using the water dispenser accumulates in the spillage tray. Take out the spillage tray by pulling it towards yourself and empty it regularly. Take out the plastic strainer by pressing it on sides. Take the water valve out of the water tank. When replacing it, make sure that the seal is in place.
