button simultaneously to enable the key lock.

2- Then press on the following buttons in turn.

If the filter usage time is calculated automatically, Filter Change Warning indicator will illuminate continuously in a few seconds after the product is plugged in.

Automatic filter usage time calculation is not enabled ex factory. It must be enabled in products equipped with a filter. If the same procedure is repeated when the automatic filter usage time calculation is enabled, then the function will be cancelled.

3.12 Before starting to use the

• If the water pressure is below 1 bar or a demijohn will be used, than a separate must be used as well.

• Water system of the refrigerator must be connected to the cold water line. It must not be connected to hot water line.

• No water may be obtained in the initial start- up of the refrigerator. Because there is air in the system. To discharge air from the system, press dispenser latch for 1-2 minutes until water comes from the dispenser. Water flow may be irregular at the beginning. After the air in the system is discharged, water flow will return to normal.

• During initial use, you will have to wait approximately 12 hours for the water to cool down.

• It will take around 1-2 days for the system to produce required amount of ice.

• Water pressure must be between 1-8 bars for the operation of ice/water dispenser smoothly. For this, check that 1 glass of water (100 cc) can be filled in 10 seconds.

• The first 10 glasses of water should not be consumed.

When the buttons are pressed in the correct order, KeyLocksymbolwillturnoff,buzzerwillsound shortly and Filter Change Warning indicator will turn on. When the Filter Replacement Warning button is pressed on, filter usage times are started to be calculated automatically.12 / 29 EN Refrigerator / User Manual Installation

• You must wait approximately 12 hours to obtain ice from the ice dispenser for the first time. If there is not enough ice in the ice container, ice may not be obtained from ice dispenser.

• Donotconsumethefirst30pieces(3-4Litres) of ice cubes.

• First several glasses of water may be turbid when the filter is used for the first time. Therefore, do not consume the first several glasses of water.

• If the water dispenser is not used for a long period of time, first 1-2 glasses of water can be hot.

• If a power outage or a temporary failure occurs while the refrigerator is operating, ice can melt down a little bit and then get frozen again. In such a case, ice cubes can stick to each other. If the outage or failure prolongs, ice can melt down causing water leakage. If you experience such a problem, empty and clean the ice container.

• Ice cubes can stick to each other if they are left in the container for a long time.

• Water system installation of the refrigerator must be performed by the Authorised Service Agent.

• If the product is to be connected to the water mains, make sure that you use potable water.

• Water system of the product is designed to operate only with water. Do not use beverage such as soft drinks and/or juices in the water system.

• It is recommended that the water is disconnected if you will not be using the refrigerator for a long period of time due to vacation or similar reasons.

• Do not attempt to dismantle the ice container group assembly parts.

• Do not attempt to clean the ice container assembly without removing it from the refrigerator.

• When taking water from the water dispenser, remove the glass from the opening 1 second after releasing the trigger. Thus, water in the system will not drip into the drip tray.

4.2 Recommendations for the

fresh food compartment

• Do not allow the food to touch the temperature sensor in fresh food compartment. To allow the fresh food compartment keep its ideal storage temperature, sensor must not be hindered by food.

• Do not put hot food and beverages inside the product.

4.1 Things to be done for

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.

• Do not place the refrigerator in places subject to direct sunlight. Install the product at least 30 cm away from heat sources such as hobs, ovens, heater cores and stoves and at least 5 cm away from electrical ovens.

• Pay attention to store your food in refrigerator in closed containers.

• You can load maximum amount of food to the freezer compartment of the refrigerator by removing the freezer compartment shelf of drawer. Declared energy consumption value of the refrigerator was determined with the freezer compartment shelf or drawer removed and with maximum amount of food loaded. There is no risk in using a shelf or drawer suitable for the shapes and sizes of the foods to be frozen.

• Thawing frozen food in fridge compartment will both provide energy saving and preserve the food quality.

The ambient temperature of the room where you install the refrigerator should at least be 10ºC /50°F. Operating your refrigerator under cooler conditions than this is not recommended.

Inside of your refrigerator must be cleaned thoroughly.

If two coolers are to be installed side by side, there should be at least 4 cm distance between them.14 / 29 EN Refrigerator / User Manual Preparation

Before starting to use the product, check that all preparations are made in accordance with the instructions in sections "Important instructions for safety and environment" and "Installation".

• Clean the interior of the refrigerator as recommended in the “Maintenance and cleaning” section. Check that inside of it is dry before operating it.

• Plug the refrigerator into the grounded wall outlet. When the door is opened the interior illumination will turn on.

• Run the refrigerator without putting any food for 6 hours and do not open its door unless certainly required.

You will hear a noise when the compressor starts up. The liquids and gases sealed within the refrigeration system may also give rise to noise, even if the compressor is not running and this is quite normal.

Front edges of the refrigerator may feel warm. This is normal. These areas are designed to be warm to avoid condensation.15 / 29 EN Refrigerator / User Manual Preparation 185 -72 ¾”

5.2 Dual cooling system

Your refrigerator is equipped with three separate cooling systems to cool the fresh food compartment, frozen food compartment and multi zone compartment. Thus, air and odour in the fresh food compartment and frozen food compartment do not get mixed. Thanks to these two separate cooling systems, cooling speed is much higher then other refrigerators. Also additional power saving is provided since the defrosting is performed individually.

5.15 Multi Zone Storage compartment

You can use the Multi Zone compartment in desired mode by setting it to freezer or fridge temperatures. Selecting fridge mode Press Multi Zone Compartment Temperature Setting button to set the temperature between 0°C /32°F and 10 ºC /50°F.

You can store delicatessen products at 0 °C /32°F for a long period of time. Selecting freezer mode Press Multi Zone Compartment Temperature Setting button to set the temperature to -6 ºC/ 21°F.

You can store the meats up to 2 weeks at -6 °C /21°F in an easily cuttable condition.

The required temperature is provided by a valve located in the closed section (compressor compartment) at the rear of the refrigerator. During operation of this element, a sound similar to the tick-tuck of an analog clock may be heard. This is normal and not a fault.

(in some models) Crispers of the refrigerator are illuminated with blue light. Food stored in the crispers continue their photosynthesis by means of the wavelength effect of blue light and thus, preserve their freshness and increase their vitamin content.

(in some models) Air is ionized by means of the ionizer system in the fridge compartment air duct. Thanks to this system, air-borne bacteria and odorising molecules are eliminated.

(in some models) Odour filter in the air duct of the fridge compartment prevents build-up of unpleasant odours in the refrigerator.

5.20 Using water dispenser

It is normal for the first few glasses of water taken from the dispenser to be warm.

If the water dispenser is not used for a long period of time, dispose of first few glasses of water to obtain fresh water.
