even floor surface to prevent jolts.12
Changing the illumination lamp To change the Bulb/LED used for illumination of your refrigerator, call your AuthorisedService. The lamp(s) used in this appliance is not suitable for household room illumination. The intended purpose of this lamp is to assist the user to place foodstuffs in the refrigerator/ freezer in a safe and comfortable way.The lamps used in this appliance have to withstand extreme physical conditions such as temperatures below -20 °C. (only chest and upright freezer)EN
- 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 normalEN
5 Using your refrigerator Thermostat setting button The operating temperature is regulated by the temperature control. Warm Cold
(Or) Min. Max. 1 = Lowest cooling setting (Warmest setting) 5 = Highest cooling setting (Coldest setting) (Or) Min. = Lowest cooling setting (Warmest setting) Max. = Highest cooling setting (Coldest setting) The average temperature inside the fridge should be around +5°C. Please choose the setting according to the desired temperature. Please note that there will be different temperatures in the cooling area. The coldest region is immediately above the vegetable compartment. The interior temperature also depends on ambient temperature, the frequency with which the door is opened and the amount of foods kept inside. Frequently opening the door causes the interior temperature to rise. For this reason, it is recommended to close the door again as soon as possible after use. 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.16
Cooling Food storage The fridge compartment is for the short-term storage of fresh food and drinks. Freezing Freezing food The freezing compartment is marked with this symbol. You can use the appliance for freezing fresh food as well as for storing pre-frozen food. Please refer to the recommendations given on the packaging of your food. Storing frozen food The frozen food compartment is marked with symbol. The frozen food compartment is suitable for the storage of pre- frozen food. The recommendation for storage, as stated on the food packaging, should be observed at all times. Defrost A) Fridge compartment Fridge compartment performs full- automatic 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.EN
Stopping your product If your thermostat is equipped with “0” position: - Your product will stop operating when you turn the thermostat button to “0” (zero) position. Your product will not start unless to you turn the thermostat button to position “1” or one of the other positions again. If your thermostat is equipped with “min” position: - Unplug your product to stop it. B) Freezer compartment Defrosting is very straightforward and without mess, thanks to a special defrost collection basin. Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 (1/4”) mm has formed. To start the defrosting procedure, switch off the appliance at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug. All food should be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in a cool place (e.g. fridge or larder). Containers of warm water may be placed carefully in the freezer to speed up the defrosting. Do not use pointed or sharp-edged objects, such as knives or forks to remove the frost. Never use hair dryers, electrical heaters or other such electrical appliances for defrosting. Sponge out the defrost water collected in the bottom of the freezer compartment. After defrosting, dry the interior thoroughly. Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply.18
6 Maintenance and cleaning A Never use gasoline, benzene or similar substances for cleaning purposes. B We recommend that you unplug the appliance before cleaning. B Never use any sharp abrasive instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent and wax polish for cleaning. B For non-No Frost products, water drops and frosting up to a fingerbreadth occur on the rear wall of the Fridge compartment. Do not clean it; never apply oil or similar agents on it. B Only use slightly damp microfiber cloths to clean the outer surface of the product. Sponges and other types of cleaning cloths may scratch the surface. C Use lukewarm water to clean the cabinet of your refrigerator and wipe it dry. C 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. B Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical items. B 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. C Check door seals regularly to ensure they are clean and free from food particles. A To remove door racks, remove all the contents and then simply push the door rack upwards from the base. A 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. A 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 C Do not put the 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.EN
