4.1. Things to be done for energy saving

A Depending on the features of your product, thawing frozen food in fridge compartment will both provide energy saving and preserve the food quality. Do not allow contact of the food with the fridge compartment temperature sensor shown in the figure below.

Connecting the product to electric energy saving systems is risky as it may cause damage on the product.

Do not leave the doors of your refrigerator open for a long time. Do not put hot food or drinks in your refrigerator. Do not overload the refrigerator, cooling capacity will fall when the air circulation inside is hindered. In order to store maximum amount of food in the freezer compartment, the icematic, available in the freezer compartment and easily removable by hand, shall be taken out. Net volume and energy consumption values declared on the power data plate of your refrigerator are measured and tested by removing the icematic. Do not remove the shelves inside the freezer compartment and on the door of freezer compartment shall not be removed and they shall always be used they provide ease of use and efficiency in energy consumption. Airflow should not be blocked by placing foods on the sides of the freezer compartment fan. A minimum distance of 3 cm shall be provided on the sides of protective fan cover. 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. 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.

4.2. Initial use Before starting to use your refrigerator, ensure that all preparations are made in accordance with the instructions in sections "Instructions for safety and environment" and "Installation". Run the product without putting any food for 6 hours and do not open its door unless certainly required.
