CHAPTER -1: GENERAL WARNINGS

Information on No-Frost Technology

No-frost fridges differ from other static fridges in their operating principle.

In normal fridges, the humidity entering the fridge in the door openings and the humidity of the food causes freezing in the freezer department. To defrost the snow and ice in the freezer department, you should turn off the fridge, take the food that needs to be kept in a constant temperature off the fridge, and remove the ice gathered in the freezer department periodically.

The situation is completely different in no-frost fridges. Dry and cold air is blown to the fridge and freezer departments homogeneously from several points via a blower fan. Cold air dispersed homogeneously even between the shelves cools all your food equally and uniformly, thus prevents humidity and freezing.

Therefore your no-frost fridge allows you ease of use, besides its huge volume and stylish appearance.

This figure has been drawn for information purposes to show the various parts and accessories in the appliance. Parts may vary according to the model of the appliance.

• Do not place food you want to freeze next to frozen food.
• You should freeze your food (meat, minced meat, fish etc) in portions that allow consuming in a time.
• Do not put fresh and warm food with frozen food side by side as it can thaw the frozen food.
• While freezing fresh food (i.e. meat, fish and mincemeat) divide them in parts in order to use in one time.
• For storing the frozen food; the instructions shown on frozen food packages should always be followed carefully and if no information is provided, food should not be stored for more than 3 months from the purchased date.
• Maximum load; if you want to load large quantities and use the maximum net capacity, you can remove the drawers (Except the bottom one). You can store bulky items directly on the shelves.
• When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures and that the packing is intact.
• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the shortest possible time.
  If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling it is probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the contents have deteriorated.
• The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting, how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time required to transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed on the package and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
  If you would use maximum freezing capacity of your freezer
• Take the frozen food in the upper basket to other baskets and activate "Fast Freezing" mode. "Fast Freezing" mode will be deactivated automatically after 24 hours. Place the food you want to freeze to the upper basket of the freezer department without exceeding the freezing capacity of your fridge. (Your refrigerator has the capacity to freeze 15kg at 25^ and 14kg at 32^ ) Then reactivate the "Fast Freezing" mode. You can put your food next to other frozen food after they are frozen (minimum 24 hours after "Fast Freezing" mode is activated for the 2nd time).
• If you would freeze about 3kg food in your freezer:
• You can place your food without touching other frozen food and activate "Fast Freezing" mode. You can put your food next to other frozen food after they are frozen (after minimum 24 hours).
• Do not re-freeze the frozen goods after being melted. This may cause health issues like food poisoning.
