• Please make sure that the interior of your cooler/freezer is cleaned thoroughly.
• When you operate your cooler/freezer for the first time, please observe the following instructions during the initial six hours.
• Its door should not be opened frequently.
• It must be operated empty without placing any food in it.
• Do not unplug your cooler/freezer. If a power failure occurs out of your control, please see the warnings in the “Recommended solutions for the problems” section.
• The baskets/drawers that are provided with the chill compartment must always be in use for low energy consumption and for better storage conditions.
• Since hot and humid air will not directly penetrate into your product when the doors are not opened, your product will optimize itself in conditions sufficient to protect your food. Functions and components such as compressor, fan heater, defrost, lighting, display and so on will operate according to the needs to consume minimum energy under these circumstances.
• 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.

- This product has been designed to function at ambient temperatures up to 43 °C (90 SDgrF). Even if the ambient temperature falls to -15 °C, frozen food in the freezer does not thaw thanks to its Advanced Electronic Temperature Control System. For the first installation, the product should NOT be placed under low ambient temperatures. This is because the freezer cannot go down to standard operation temperature.

When reaching continuous operation, the product can be moved to another place. Thus, later you can place your product in the garage or an unheated room without the concern of causing frozen food to get rotten. However, it is likely that above mentioned low temperatures may cause the freezing of the food in the fridge compartment; thus, please consume the food items in the fridge in a controlled way as needed. When ambient temperature goes back to normal, you may change button setting according to your need.

- If the ambient temperature is below 0^ C, the food in fridge compartment will freeze. Therefore, we recommend not using the fridge compartment will in such low ambient temperatures. You may continue to use the freezer compartment as usual.

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 normal.
