- Operating voltage for your fridge is 220-240 V at 50Hz.
• We do not take the responsibility of the damages that occur due to ungrounded usage.
- Place your fridge in a place that it would not be exposed to direct sunlight.
- Your appliance should be at least 50 cm away from stoves, Gas ovens and heater cores, and should be at least 5 cm away from electrical ovens.
- Your fridge should never be used outdoors or left under the rain.
- When your fridge is placed next to a deep freezer, there should be at least 2 ~cm between them to prevent humidity on the outer surface.
- Do not place anything on your fridge, and install your fridge in a suitable place so that at least 15 cm is available on the upper side.

CHAPTER 2. USAGE INFORMATION
Information On No-Frost Technology
No-frost refrigerators differ from other static refrigerators in their operating principle.
In normal fridges, the humidity entering the fridge due to door openings and the humidity inherent in the food causes freezing in the freezer department. To defrost the frost and ice in the freezer compartment, you are periodically required to turn off the fridge, place the food that needs to be kept frozen in a separately cooled container, and remove the ice gathered in the freezer department.
The situation is completely different in no-frost fridges. Dry and cold air is blown into the fridge and freezer compartments homogeneously and evenly from several points via a blower fan. Cold air dispersed homogeneously and evenly between the shelves cools all of your food equally and uniformly, thus preventing humidity and freezing.
Therefore your no-frost fridge allows you ease of use, in addition to its huge capacity and stylish appearance.

The thermostat ensures that the temperature settings in the cooling and freezing compartments of your refrigerator are controlled automatically. It may be set to any value ranging from 1 to 6. As you turn the thermostat setting knob from 1 to 6, the amount of cooling increases.
Cooling compartment thermostat knob:
5 - 6 : For more cooling.
3 - 5 : For normal utilization.
1 - 3 : For less cooling.
Warnings for Temperature Settings
- It is not recommended that you operate your fridge in environments colder than 10^ in terms of its efficiency.
- The thermostat setting should be done by taking into consideration how often the fresh food and freezer doors are opened and closed, how much food is stored in the refrigerator, and the environment in which the refrigerator is located.
- Your fridge should be operated up to 24 hours according to the ambient temperature without interruption after being plugged in to be completely cooled. Do not open doors of your fridge frequently and do not place much food inside it in this period.
- A 5 minute delaying function is applied to prevent damage to the compressor of your fridge, when you take the plug off and then plug it on again to operate it or when an energy breakdown occurs. Your fridge will start to operate normally after 5 minutes.
- Your fridge is designed to operate in the ambient temperature intervals 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 out of the stated temperature intervals in terms of cooling efficiency.
| Climate Class Ambient | |
| T | 16 to 43 °C |
| ST | 16 to 38 °C |
| N | 16 to 32 °C |
| SN | 10 to 32 °C |
CHAPTER 3.
PLACING THE FOOD
Cooling Compartment
- To prevent humidification and odour formation, the food should be placed in the refrigerator in closed or covered containers.
- Hot foods and drinks should be cooled to room temperatures before being placed in the refrigerator.
- Please do not prop packaged food and containers against the lamp or cover of the cooling compartment.
- Fruits and vegetables may be placed directly in the vegetable holder without being wrapped separately.
- Some recommendations have been specified below for the placement and storage of your food in the cooling compartment.
| Food Storage Duration | Location where it will be placed in the cooling compartment | |
| Fruits and Vegetables | 1 Week | In the vegetable holder (without being wrapped in anything) |
| Fish and meat 2-3 days | Wrapped in plastic folio or bag or within a meat box (on the glass shelf) | |
| Fresh cheese 3-4 days In the special door shelf | ||
| Butter, margarine 1 Week In the special door shelf | ||
| Bottled products, Milk and yoghurt | The period recommended by the manufacturer | In the special door shelf |
| Egg 1 month In the egg-holder shelf | ||
| Cooked food In every shelf | ||
NOTE: Potatoes, onions and garlic should not be stored in the refrigerator. Meat should never be refrozen after it is thawed if it has not been cooked before refreezing.
The Deep Freeze Compartment
- Use the deep freeze compartment of your refrigerator for storing the frozen food for a long time and for producing ice.
- To get maximum capacity for freezer compartment, please just use glass shelves for upper and middle section. For bottom section, please use lower basket.
- Place the food you would like to freeze initially in the upper shelf of the deep freeze section in such a way that it shall not exceed the declared freezing capacity of your refrigerator. You may place your food next to the other frozen foods after they are frozen (for at least 24 hours).
- It is recommended to keep thermostat set at level 5.
- It is recommended that the food which is being newly frozen be kept separate from the already frozen food.
- Foods should be frozen in single portion sized containers.
- Do not refreeze the frozen food once it is thawed. It may pose a danger to your health as it might cause problems like food poisoning.
- Do not place hot meals in your deep freeze until they cool down. You could cause the other food frozen beforehand in the deep freeze compartment to become spoiled.
- As you buy frozen food, make sure it was frozen under appropriate conditions and that the packaging is not torn.
- While storing frozen food, the storage conditions on the package should certainly be observed. If there are no instructions, the food has to be consumed in the shortest possible period of time.
- Frozen food has to be transported before it thaws and it should be placed in the fast freezing shelf as soon as possible. Please do not use the door shelves for fast freezing purposes.
- If the frozen food package has been humidified and it has a foul odour, the food might have previously been stored under unsuitable conditions and become spoiled. Please do not buy such food!
- The storage durations of frozen food change depending on the environmental temperatures, the frequent opening and closing of the doors, thermostat settings, food types, and the period of time that elapsed from when the food was acquired to the time it entered the freezer. Always abide by the instructions on the package and never exceed the storage duration.
- During extended power outages, please do not open the door of the deep freeze compartment. Your refrigerator will preserve your frozen food in the ambient environmental temperature of 25°C for about 13 hours. This preservation time period decreases the higher the ambient environmental temperatures are. During longer lasting power cuts, you should not refreeze your food.
Some recommendations have been specified on pages 10, 11 and 12 for the placement and storage of your food in the deep freeze compartment.

Defrosting
natural_image
Technical line drawing of a refrigerated industrial machine with cooling fins and housing (no text or symbols)- Your refrigerator performs fully automatic defrosting. The water formed as a result of defrosting passes through the water collection spout, flows into the vaporization container behind your refrigerator and evaporates by itself in there.
- Make sure you have disconnected the plug of your refrigerator before cleaning the vaporization container.
- Remove the vaporization container from its position by unscrewing the screws as indicated. Clean it with soapy water at specific time intervals. Thus, the odour formation will have been prevented.
Replacing the Bulb
To replace the bulb in the freezer and fridge compartments;
1- Unplug your fridge.
2- Using a screwdriver, carefully remove the light cover from the top panel.
3- Replace with a 15 watt bulb.
4- Reinstall the light cover.
5- Wait for 5 minutes before re-plugging the fridge in and restore the thermostat to its original position.

- It is not possible to change the opening direction of your fridge door, if the door handles on your fridge are installed from the front surface of the door.
- It is possible to change the opening direction of the door on models without any handles.
- If the door opening direction of your fridge may be changed, you should contact the nearest Authorized Service to have the opening direction changed.
CHAPTER 6. BEFORE CALLING SERVICE
If your refrigerator is not working:
• Is there an electrical failure?
- Has the plug been correctly connected to the socket?
- Has there been a blow-out in the fuse or breaker of the electrical circuit to which the plug has been connected?
- Are there any faults with the socket? For this purpose, try the plug of your refrigerator by connecting it to a socket which you are sure is working.
If your refrigerator does not get cold enough:
- Is the thermostat set in the coldest position?
- Are the doors of your refrigerator opened very frequently and do they remain open for long periods of time?
- Do the doors of your refrigerator fully closed and are the door gaskets sealing correctly?
- Are any containers or dishes placed in your refrigerator contacting the back wall in such a way that they are obstructing the air circulation?
• Is your refrigerator over-filled?
- Is there enough space between your refrigerator and the back and side walls?
If the food in the Cooling/Freezing compartment is colder than necessary:
- Has a suitable temperature setting be made? (Are the thermostat knobs in the position "5"?)
- Is there too much newly placed food in the deep freeze compartment?
If there is, the compressor shall operate longer for freezing it; hence it may also possibly be cooling the food in the cooling compartment more than necessary.
If your refrigerator is operating noisily:
The compressor shall from time to time energize to ensure that the adjusted coolness level remain fixed. The noises that may be heard from the refrigerator at that time are normal as required by function.
Once the required coolness level has been achieved, the noises should automatically diminish.
If there is still noise:
- Has your refrigerator been levelled? Have the feet been adjusted and set?
• Is there anything behind your refrigerator? - Are the shelves or the plates on the shelves of your fridge vibrating? If so, then rearrange the shelves and/or plates.
- Are the goods placed in your fridge vibrating? Secure them or rearrange on the shelf.
Crackling (Ice Cracking) Noise:
- It is heard during the automatic defrosting process as the ice which has formed on the cooling coil melts and falls into the drain trough.
- Once the device has been cooled or heated (the expansions and contractions of the actual product material).
Short Cracking Noise: It is heard when the thermostat turns the compressor on and off.
Compressor Noise:
- It is a normal engine noise. This noise indicates that the compressor is operating normally.
- As the compressor is being energized, it might run a bit more noisily for a short period of time.
Bubbling and gurgling sound: This noise is emitted as the coolant fluid flows through the pipes within the system.
Water flowing sound: This is the normal sound of water flowing into the drain trough during the defrosting process.
Air blowing sound: It is the normal fan sound. This sound may be heard due to air circulation in No Frost refrigerators when the system is operating normally.
If the edges of the refrigerator cabinet contacted by the door seal are hot:
- Especially in summer months (in hot weather), there might be warming of the surfaces contacted by the seal on the refrigerator. This is normal.
If there is moisture on the inner parts of your refrigerator:
- Has the food been properly packaged and sealed? Have the containers been well dried before they were put into the refrigerator?
- Are the doors of the refrigerator opened very frequently? Once the door is opened, the humidity found in the air in the room enters the refrigerator. Especially if the humidity levels in the room are very high. The more frequently the door is opened, the faster will be the humidification.
- It is normal to have water drops formed on the back wall following the automatic defrosting process (In Static Models).
If the doors are not being properly closed:
- Are food packages preventing the doors from being closed?
- Have the door compartments, shelves and drawers properly placed?
- Are the door seals defective or torn?
• Is your refrigerator standing on level ground?
IMPORTANT NOTES:
- In case of a sudden power loss or disconnecting and reconnecting of the plug to the electrical socket, the compressor protective thermal element will be opened as the pressure of the gas in the cooling system of your refrigerator has not yet been balanced. 4 or 5 minutes later, your refrigerator will start to operate; this is normal.
- If you won't be using your refrigerator for a long time (such as on summer holidays), please disconnect the plug from the socket. Clean your refrigerator as per Part 4 of this document and leave the door open to prevent any humidification or odour formation.
- If the problem persists after you have followed all the instructions above, please consult to the nearest Authorized Service.
- The appliance you have purchased is designed for home type use and can be used only at home and for the stated purposes. It is not suitable for commercial or common use. If the consumer use the appliance in a way that does not comply with these features, we emphasize that the producer and the dealer shall not be responsible for any repair and failure within the guarantee period.
- The lifetime of your appliance stated and declared by the Department of the Industry (the period for retaining parts required for the proper functioning of the appliance) is 10 years.
Conformity Information
- Tropical Class is defined for the environment temperatures between 16^ and 43^ in accordance with the TS EN ISO 15502 Standards.
- The appliance is designed in compliance with the EN15502, IEC60335-1 / IEC60335-2-24, 2004/108/EC standards.
Tips for saving energy
1- Install the appliance in a cool, well ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight and not near heat source (radiator, cooker.. etc.). Otherwise use an insulating plate.
2- Allow warm food and drinks to cool down outside the appliance.
3- When thawing frozen food, place it in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature of the frozen food will help to cool the refrigerator compartment when it is thawing. So it reduces the energy requirements.
4- When placing, drinks and liquids they must be covered. Otherwise humidity increases at the appliance. Therefore the working time gets longer. Also covering drinks and liquids helps preserve the smell and taste.
5- When placing food and drinks, open the appliance door as briefly as possible.
6- Keep the covers closed of any different temperature compartment in the appliance (crisper, chiller ...etc.).
7- Door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
