4.1. What to do for energy saving
mehmet
A
Connecting the product to electronic
energy-saving systems is harmful, as it
may damage the product.
• Do not keep the refrigerator doors open for
long periods.
• Do not place hot food or beverages into the
refrigerator.
• Do not overfill the refrigerator; blocking the
internal air flow will reduce cooling capacity.
• The energy consumption value specified for
the refrigerator was measured with the freezer
compartment’s upper shelf removed, other
shelves and the lowest drawers in place and
under maximum load. The top glass shelf can
be used, depending on the shape and size of
food to be frozen.
• Depending on the product’s features;
defrosting frozen foods in the cooler
compartment will ensure energy saving and
preserve food quality.
• The baskets/drawers that are provided with the
chill compartment must always be in use for
low energy consumption and for better storage
conditions.
• 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.
• Make sure the foods are not in contact with
the cooler compartment temperature sensor
described below.
4.2. First Use
Before using your refrigerator, make sure the
necessary preparations are made in line with
the instructions in “Safety and environment
instructions” and “Installation” sections.
• Keep the product running with no food inside
for 6 hours and do not open the door, unless
absolutely necessary.
C
A sound will be heard when the
compressor is engaged. It is normal to
hear sound even when the compressor is
inactive, due to the compressed liquids
and gasses in the cooling system.
C
It is normal for the front edges of the
refrigerator to be warm. These areas are
designed to warm up in order to prevent
condensation.
C
In some models, the indicator 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.

5.2. Humidity controlled crisper
(FreSHelf)
(This feature is optional)
Humidity rates of the vegetables and fruit are
kept under control with the feature of humidity-
controlled crisper and the food is ensured to stay
fresh for longer.
We recommend you to place the leafy vegetables
such as lettuce, spinach and the vegetables which
are sensitive to humidity loss, in a horizontal
manner as much as possible inside the crisper, not
on their roots in a vertical position.
While the vegetables are being placed, specific
gravity of the vegetables should be taken into
consideration. Heavy and hard vegetables should
be put at the bottom of the crisper and the
lightweight and soft vegetables should be placed
over.
Never leave the vegetables inside the crisper
in their bags. If the vegetables are left inside
their bags, this will cause them to decompose
in a short period of time. In case contacting with
other vegetables is not preferred for hygiene
concerns, use a perforated paper and other similar
packaging materials instead of a bag.
Do not place together the pear, apricot, peach,
etc. and apple in particular which have a high level
of generation of ethylene gas in the same crisper
with the other vegetables and fruit. The ethylene
gas which is emitted by these fruit may cause
the other fruit to ripen faster and decompose in a
shorter time.

5.17. Freezing fresh food
• To preserve food quality, the food items placed
in the freezer compartment must be frozen as
quickly as possible, use the rapid freezing for
this.
• Freezing the food items when fresh will extend
the storage time in the freezer compartment.
• Pack the food items in air-tight packs and seal
tightly.
• Make sure the food items are packed before
putting in the freezer. Use freezer holders,
tinfoil and damp-proof paper, plastic bag
or similar packaging materials instead of
traditional packaging paper.
• Mark each food pack by writing the date on the
package before freezing. This will allow you to
determine the freshness of each pack every
time the freezer is opened. Keep the earlier
food items in the front to ensure they are used
first.
• Frozen food items must be used immediately
after defrosting and should not be frozen again.

5.18. Recommendations for
storing frozen foods
The compartment must be set to at least -18°C.
1. Place the food items in the freezer as quickly
as possible to avoid defrosting.
2. Before freezing, check the “Expiry Date” on
the package to make sure it is not expired.
3. Make sure the food’s packaging is not
damaged.
5.19. Deep freezer details
As per the IEC 62552 standards, the freezer must
have the capacity to freeze 4,5 kg of food items at
-18°C or lower temperatures in 24 hours for each
100 litres of freezer compartment volume. Food
items can only be preserved for extended periods
at or below temperature of -18°C . You can keep
the foods fresh for months (in deep freezer at or
below temperatures of 18°C ).
The food items to be frozen must not contact
the already-frozen food inside to avoid partial
defrosting.
Boil the vegetables and filter the water to extend
the frozen storage time. Place the food in air-tight
packages after filtering and place in the freezer.
Bananas, tomatoes, lettuce, celery, boiled eggs,
potatoes and similar food items should not be
frozen. Freezing these food items will simply
reduce the nutritional value and food quality,
as well as possible spoiling which is harmful to
health.
