Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room far away from any heat source (eg. radiator, cooker, etc.) and in a place not exposed directly to the sun. If required, use an insulating plate. To guarantee adequate ventilation follow installation instructions. Insufcient ventilation at the back of the product increases energy consumption and decreases cooling efciency. Frequent door opening might cause an increase in Energy Consumption. The internal temperature of the appliance and the Energy Consumption may be affected also by the ambient temperature, as well as location of the appliance. Temperature setting should take into consideration these factors. Reduce door opening to minimum. When thawing frozen food, place it in the refrigerator. The low temperature of the frozen products cools the food in the refrigerator. Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before placing in the appliance. Positioning of the shelves in the refrigerator has no impact on the efcient usage of energy. Food should be placed on the shelves in such way to ensure proper air circulation (food should not touch each other and distance between food and rear wall should be kept). You can increase storage capacity of frozen food by removing baskets and, if present, Stop Frost shelf. Do not worry about noises coming from the compressor which are normal operation noises.

• Wait at least two hours, after the installation, before connecting the appliance to the power supply. Connect the appliance to the power supply and turn the thermostat knob to switch on the appliance. After turning the appliance on, you must wait for 4-6 hours for the correct storage temperature to be reached for a normally lled appliance.

• Your fridge may have a smell when it is operated for the rst time. This is normal and the smell will fade away when your fridge starts to cool.

FIRST TIME USEEN - 21

Thermostat setting Thermostat automatically regulates the inside temperature of the refrigerator compartment and freezer compartment. By rotating the knob from position 1. to 5., colder temperatures can be obtained. Important note: Do not try to rotate knob beyond 1 position it will stop your appliance.

• For short-term storage of food in the freezer/refrigerator compartment, you can set the knob between minimum and medium position.(1-3)

• For long-term storage of food, you can set knob to medium position.(3-4) Note that; the ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how often the door is opened, affects the temperature in the refrigerator compartment. If required,change the temperature setting. The freezer**** of the refrigerator can cool up to -18°C and more. If super switch is available:

• Normally set this switch to ‘0’ position. Except when the ambient temperature is low like in winter. (ie.below 16°C) or when the freezer temperature needs to be maintained lower. In that case, turn the switch to ‘1’ position ON.

• To set super switch ON that is on the thermostat box, press the switch down to ‘1’ position. The switch will lit.

• When the freezer compartment is cooled down to sufcient temperature, or the weather gets hot, turn the super switch off to save electrical consumption.

• When you rst switch on the appliance, for starting a suitable cooling, the appliance should work 24 hours continuously until it cools down to sufcient temperature.

• In this time do not open the door so often and place a lot of food inside the appliance. If the unit is switched off or unplugged, you must allow at least 5 minutes before restarting or re-plugged the unit in order not to damage the compressor. Super freezing: If ambient temperature is more than 16°C, this switch must be used as superfreeze switch.For maximum freezing capacity, the switch must be turned on 24h before the placing fresh foods. After placing fresh food in the freezer, 24 hours ON position is generally sufcient. In order to save energy, please turn off this switch after 24 hours from placing fresh food. Temperature Settings Warnings

• It is not recommended that you operate your fridge in environments colder than 10°C in terms of its efciency.

• When setting the thermostat, take into consideration how often the appliance door is opened and closed, how much food is stored in the refrigerator, and the environment in which the refrigerator is located.

• When the appliance is rst switched on, allow it to run for 24 hours in order to reach large quantity of food inside. operating temperature. During this time, do not open the door and do not keep a large quantity of food inside.

• Unplug your appliance during a power cut to prevent damage to the compressor. Once power is restored, delay plugging in your appliance for 5 to 10 minutes. This will help prevent damage to the appliance’s components.

• Your appliance is designed to operate in the ambient temperature ranges stated in the standards, according to the climate class stated in the information label. It is not recommended that your fridge is operated in the environments which are outside of the stated temperature ranges. This will reduce the cooling efciency of the appliance.

• This appliance is designed for use at an ambient temperature within the 16°C - 32°C range. USAGE INFORMATION Climatic Class Amb. T. (°C) SN: From 10 to 32 °C ST: From 16 to 38 °C; N: From 16 to 32 °C T: From 16 to 43 °CEN - 22 Accessories Door Open” Indicator;

• The « Door Open » indicator on the handle shows whether the door has closed properly or whether it is still open.

• If the indicator is red, the door is still open.

• If the indicator is white, the door is properly closed.

• Observe that the freezer’s door should always be kept closed. This will prevent food products from defrosting; it will avoid heavy ice and frost build-up inside the freezer and an unnecessary energy consumption. Making Ice cubes; Ice tray ;

• Fill the ice tray with water and place in the freezer compartment.

• After the water has completely turned into ice, you can twist the tray as shown below to remove the ice cubes. All written and visual descriptions in the accessories may vary according to the appliance model. Putting food in the coldest area of the refrigerator Your foods will be better stored if you put them in the most appropriate cooling area. The coldest area is just above the crisper.To be sure to have a low temperature in this area, make sure the shelf is located at the level of this symbol, as shown in the illustration. Temperature indicator (In some models) In order to help you better set your refrigerator, we have equipped it with a temperature indicator located in the coldest area.You can easily check that the temperature of the coldest area is appropriate: when the indicator shows “OK”, it means the thermostat is set properly and the inside temperature is correct.Since “OK” appears in black, it will be difcult to see this indication if the temperature indicator is badly lit. To be able to see this indication properly, there should be enough light.If the “OK” symbol does not appear, it means that the temperature is too high: you will then have to modify the thermostat setting, and wait 12 hours before visually checking the temperature again. NOTE: Following repeated openings (or prolonged opening) of the door or after putting fresh food into the appliance, it is normal for the indication “OK” not to appear in the temperature setting indicator. If there is an abnormal ice crystals build up (bottom wall of the appliance) on the refrigerator compartment evaporator (overloaded appliance, high room temperature, frequent door openings), put the temperature setting device on a lower position until compressor off periods are obtained again.The upper limit of the coldest area is indicated by the lower side of the sticker (head of the arrow). The coldest area upper shelf must be at the same level with the arrow head. The coldest area is below this level.As these shelves are removable, make sure they are always at the same level with these zone limits described on the stickers, in order to guarantee temperatures in this area.Each type of food has an ideal conservation temperature and consequently a particular location to follow.

KEN - 23 Refrigerator Compartment

• To reduce humidity and avoid formation of frost, never place liquids in unsealed containers in the refrigerator. Do not place hot food or evaporating liquid in the refrigerator. Always store food in closed containers or wrapped.

• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at room temperature and should be arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator compartment.

• Make sure no items are in direct contact with the rear wall of the appliance as frost will develop and packaging will stick to it. Do not open the refrigerator door frequently.

• We recommend that meat and clean sh are loosely wrapped and stored on the glass shelf just above the vegetable bin where the air is cooler, as this provides the best storage conditions.

• Store loose fruit and vegetable items in the crisper containers.

• Do not put wet vegetables into the refrigerator.

• Storage time for all food products depends on the initial quality of the food and an uninterrupted refrigeration cycle before refrigerator storage. Freezer Compartment The freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh food and for storing frozen food for the period of time indicated on packaging, and for making ice cubes.

• When freezing fresh food, wrap and seal the food properly; the packaging should be air tight and shouldn’t leak. Special freezer bags, aluminum foil (heavy grade, if in doubt double wrap), polythene bags and plastic containers are ideal.

• 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).

• While freezing fresh foods (i.e meat,sh and mincemeat), divide them in parts you will use in one time.

• Once the unit has been defrosted replace the foods into freezer and remember to consume them in as short period of time.

• 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 sufciently low temperature for food storage. However, avoid opening the freezer door to slow down the temperature rise within the freezer compartment.

• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment.

• When purchasing and storing frozen food products, ensure that the packaging is not damaged.

• Place frozen food in the freezer compartment as soon as possible after buying it.

• Once the food has thawed, it must not be refrozen; you must cook it as quickly as possible in order to consume or to freeze once again. Not that; if you want to open again immediately after closing the freezer door, it will not be opened easily. It’s quite normal! After reaching equilibrium condition, the door will be opened easily. FOOD STORAGE Locations Products Upper shelves Cooked foods, desserts and all foods to be eaten fast enough Coldest area Meat, poultry, game and raw sh Maximum conservation tim e : 1 to 2 days. Fresh fruits, cooked pork meat. Crisper Fresh vegetables and fruits. Door-liner Door trays shall contain bottles at the bottom side and, in their upper parts, low volume and currently used products like yoghurt, fresh cream, etc. Butter, cooked cheese and eggs shall be introduced in appropriate holders.EN - 24 Important note:

• Frozen foods, when thawed, should be cooked just like fresh foods. If they are not cooked after being thawed they must NEVER be re-frozen.

• The taste of some spices found in cooked dishes (anise, basilica, watercress, vinegar, assorted spices, ginger, garlic, onion, mustard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, etc.) changes and they assume a strong taste when they are stored for a long period. Therefore, the frozen food should be added little amount of spices or the desired spice should be added after the food has been thawed.”

• The storage period of food is dependent on the oil used. The suitable oils are margarine, calf fat, olive oil and butter and the unsuitable oils are peanut oil and pig fat.

• The food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic cups and the other food should be frozen in plastic folios or bags.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Disconnect unit from the power supply before cleaning.

• Do not clean the appliance by pouring wate

• The refrigerator compartment should be cleaned periodically using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water.

• Clean the condenser with a broom at least twice a year. This will help you to save on energy costs and increase productivity. Defrosting For fridge compartment

• Defrosting occurs automatically in refrigerator compartment during operation ; the defrost water is collected by the evaporating tray and evoparates automatically.

• The evaporating tray and the defrost water drain hole should be cleaned periodically with defrost drain plug to prevent the water from collecting on the bottom of the refrigerator instead of owing out.

• You can also pour 1⁄2 glass of the water to drain hole to clean inside. For freezer compartment;

• The frost, accumulated in the freezer compartment, should be removed periodically. The freezer compartment should be cleaned in the way as the refrigerator compartment, with the defrost operations of the compartment at least twice a year. For this;

• The day before you defrost, set the thermostat dial to 5. position 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.

• Switch the refrigerator off at the socket outlet and pull the main plug

• Leave the door open and to accelerate the defrosting process one or more basins of warm water can be placed in the freezer compartment.
