- Insert the plug into a socket with an efficient ground connection. If the socket has no ground contact or the plug does not match, we suggest you to call an authorized electrician for assistance.

- Manufacturer is not responsible for failure to complete the ground connection as described in this booklet.

- There can be an odor when you first switch on the appliance. It will disappear after the appliance starts to cool.

The freezer thermostat automatically regulates the inside temperature of the compartments. By rotating the knob from position 1 to 3, colder temperatures can be obtained. "0" position shows thermostat is closed and no cooling will be available.

Freezer Thermostat Setting;

0 : The appliance is switched off.

1 - 2 : For short-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set the knob between minimum and medium position.

3 - 4 : For long-term storage of food in the freezer compartment, you can set knob to medium position.

5: For freezing the fresh food. The appliance will run for colder temperatures.

Freezing with Super Freeze (SF button): Press the SF button, the freezer will start to run continuously with maximum performance (observe that the SF lamp will light on orange when you turn on the SF button). The freezer temperature will decrease and the appliance will switch to to the lowest temperature.

Place the food to be frozen quickly inside the freezer, preferably in the top drawers. Once the food is frozen, you must turn off the SF button and set the thermostat knob to desired position.

Note that: the ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how often the door is opened, affects the temperature in the refrigerator and freezer compartments. If required, change the temperature setting.

Display Panel

Super freeze light (SF light): Lights orange, when the SF button is turned on.

Power light: Lights green automatically, when the appliance is connected to the power supply.

Alarm light: Lights red, when the temperature rises to a critical point in side the freeze.

PART 3. FOOD STORAGE IN THE APPLIANCE

Freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh foods and for storing frozen foods for the period of time indicated on packaging, and for making ice cubes.

• For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh food properly, that is the packaging should be air tight and shouldn't leak. Special freezer bags, aluminum foil (heavy grade, in doubt double wrap), polythene bags and plastic containers are ideal.
• Do not allow the fresh food to be frozen to come into contact with the already frozen food.
• Always mark the date and the content on the pack and do not exceed the stated storage time.
• In case of a power failure or malfunction, the freezer compartment will maintain a sufficiently low temperature for food storage. However, avoid opening the freezer door to slow down the temperature rise within the freezer compartment.
• The maximum amount of fresh foods that can be loaded in the freezer within 24 hours is indicated on the name plate (see Freezing Capacity).
• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment.
• When purchasing and storing frozen food products; ensure that the packaging is not damaged.
• The storage time and the recommended temperature for storing frozen foods are indicated on the packaging. For storing and using, follow the manufacturer's instructions. If no information is provided, food should not be stored for more than 3 months.
• Place frozen food in the freezer compartment as soon as possible after buying it.
• Once the food is thawed, it must not be refrozen; you must cook it as quickly as possible in order to consume or to freeze once again.
• When making ice cubes, fill the ice tray with water and place in freezer compartment. After the water completely turned into ice, you can twist the tray as shown below to get the ice cube.

Storage: If you want to use the maximum net capacity, you can remove the drawers and store the items directly on the cooling tubes. This will enable you to make use of the entire volume of the compartment.

PART 4. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

- Disconnect the appliance from the power supply before cleaning.

- Do not pour water over the appliance.

- Clean the accessories separately with soap and water. Do not put them in the dishwasher.

- Do not use abrasive products, detergents or soaps. After washing, rinse with clean water and dry carefully. When the cleaning operations have been completed, reconnect the plug with dry hands.

ng.

Defrosting the Freezer Compartment:

WARNING: Never use sharp metal tools, unless recommended by manufacturer, for this operation as they can damage the refrigeration circuit.

After a period of time, frost will build up in certain areas in the freezer compartment. The frost, accumulated in the freezer compartment, should be removed periodically (use the plastic scraper if available).

Complete defrosting will become necessary if the frost layer exceeds 3-5 mm to maintain the efficiency of the freezer.

- The day before you defrost, set the thermostat dial to position "5" to freeze the foods completely.

- During defrosting, frozen foods should be wrapped in several layers of paper and kept in a cool place. The inevitable rise in temperature will shorten their storage life. Remember to use these foods within a relatively short period of time.

- Set the thermostat knob to position "0" and switch off the appliance.

- Leave the door open to accelerate defrosting. Remove the defrost water from the compartment.

• This appliance is provided with a special drain system.

1. Pull out the bottom drawer A of the freezer compartment and put it on the floor aligning it to the cabinet front.

2. Pull out the drain pipe B placed on the back wall of the freezer compartment. Then place it in the groove on the front side of the floor of the appliance.

1. If there is still water on the freezer floor, you can clear it away by using a sponge.

- Clean the interior by hand with lukewarm water and a little detergent. Never use abrasive products or aggressive cleaning agents.

- Dry the inside of the unit, plug on the mains, and set the thermostat knob to position "5". After 24 hours, reset the thermostat to the desired position.

PART 5. BEFORE CALLING YOUR AFTER SALES SERVICE

If your refrigerator is not working properly, it may be a minor problem, therefore check the following.

The appliance does not operate, Check if;

• There is a power failure.
• The mains plug is not properly plugged in, or is loose
- The thermostat setting is on position "0",

- The socket is defective. To check this, plug in another appliance that you know which is working into the same socket.

The appliance performs poorly; Check if;

• You have overloaded the appliance,
  • The doors are not closed perfectly,
• There are not enough ventilation ducts on the kitchen unit as mentioned in the Installation Manual.

If there is noise;

The cooling gas which circulates in the refrigerator circuit may make a slight noise (bubbling sound) even when the compressor is not running. Do not worry, this is quite normal. If these sounds are different check if;

• The appliance is installed firmly as described in the Installation Manual.
• The objects on the appliance are vibrating.

If there is water in the lower part of the refrigerator; Check if;

The drain hole for defrost water is not clogged (use defrost drain plug to clean the drain hole).

If your freezer is not freezing enough;

Your freezer is designed to operate in the ambient temperature intervals stated in the standards, according to the climate class stated in the information label. We do not recommend operating your freezer out of stated temperatures value limits in terms of cooling effectiveness.

Climate Class A	Ambient Temperature (°C)
T	Between 16 and 43 (°C)
ST	Between 16 and 38 (°C)
N	Between 16 and 32 (°C)
SN	Between 10 and 32 (°C)

(*) Tropical class is designated for temperatures between 16°C and 43°C according to TS EN ISO 15502 standards.

Recommendations

• In order to increase space and improve the appearance, the “cooling section” of refrigerators is positioned inside the back wall of the refrigerator compartment. When the compressor is working, this wall is covered with frost or water drops. Do not worry. This is quite normal. The appliance should be defrosted only if an excessively thick ice layer forms on the back wall.
• If the appliance is not used for a long time (for example during the summer holidays), set the thermostat knob to position "0". Defrost and clean the refrigerator leaving the door open to prevent the formation of mildew and smell.
