5 Using your refrigerator

Setting the operating temperature

The operating temperature is regulated by the temperature control.

1 = Lowest cooling setting (Warmest setting)

MAX. = Highest cooling setting (Coldest setting)

Please choose the setting according to the desired temperature.

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 normal storage temperature of your appliance should be -18 °C (0 °F). Lower temperatures can be obtained by adjusting the thermostat knob towards Position MAX.

We recommend checking the temperature with a thermometer to ensure that the storage compartments are kept to the desired temperature.

Remember to take the reading immediately since the thermometer temperature will rise very rapidly after you remove it from the freezer.

LED indicators and control panel

LED indicators in the front section of your refrigerator are intended to help you in monitoring the operation of your appliance.

Keep your food in the refrigerator in a safe manner by monitoring and using these LEDs and controls as explained below:

Fast Freeze Button (1): Used to freeze the food fastly. Compressor may not operate immediately but after some time when the button is pressed and this is quite normal.

Thermostat Setting Button (2): Used to set your refrigerator between minimum and maximum values.

Temperature Indicator (3): Displays the inner temperature of your refrigerator. Orange LED (4): Lights up when the fast freeze button on the LED panel is pressed. In this case, your refrigerator operates continuously.

Press the button again when the food you would like to fast freeze comes to the desired temperature and the orange LED will turn off.

Green LED (5): Lights up continuously after plugging in your refrigerator.

Red LED (6): It warns user by lighting up continuously when there is not enough cooling in the refrigerator, when the door remains open for a long time and when excessive food is loaded.

If the red LED lights up continuously when the conditions stated in the adjacent column do not exist, then call our Authorized Service.

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.

Attention

Do not freeze fizzy drinks, as the bottle may burst when the liquid in it is frozen.

Be careful with frozen products such as coloured ice-cubes.

Do not exceed the freezing capacity of your appliance in 24 hours. See the rating label.

In order to maintain the quality of the food, the freezing must be effected as rapidly as possible.

Thus, the freezing capacity will not be exceeded, and the temperature inside the freezer will not rise.

Attention

Keep the already deep-frozen food always separated with freshly placed food.

When deep-freezing hot food, the cooling compressor will work until the food is completely frozen. This can temporarily cause excessive cooling of the refrigeration compartment.

If you find the freezer door difficult to open just after you have closed it, don't worry. This is due to the pressure difference which will equalize and allow the door to open normally after a few minutes.

You will hear a vacuum sound just after closing the door. This is quite normal.

Making ice cubes

Fill the ice-cube tray 3/4 full with water and place it in the freezer.

As soon as the water has turned into ice, you can take out the ice cubes.

Never use sharp objects such as knives or forks to remove the ice cubes. There is a risk of injury!

Let the ice cubes slightly thaw instead, or put the bottom of the tray in hot water for a short moment.

Fast freeze

If large amounts of fresh food are going to be frozen, adjust the control knob to max. 24 hours before putting the fresh food in the fast freeze compartment.

It is strongly recommended to keep the knob at MAX. position at least 24 hours to freeze maximum amount of fresh food declared as freezing capacity. Take special care not to mix frozen food and fresh food.

When fast freeze switch is on, -27 degrees C will flash for 5 seconds on display (6). Fast-freeze operation is for freezing fresh food (see Freezing Fresh Food section).

Defrosting of the appliance

The appliance defrosts automatically.

6 Maintenance and cleaning

⚠️ Never use gasoline, benzene or similar substances for cleaning purposes.
⚠️ We recommend that you unplug the appliance before cleaning.
i Never use any sharp abrasive instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent and wax polish for cleaning.
