This is normal and the smell will fade away when your fridge freezer starts to cool.

THE VARIOUS FUNCTION AND POSSIBILITIES

Information about new generation cooling technology

Fridges with new generation cooling technology have a different

working system than static fridges. Other fridges may experience

ice build up in the freezer compartment due to door openings and

humidity in the food. In such fridges regular defrosting is required;

the fridge has to be periodically turned off, the frozen food moved

to a suitable container and the ice which has formed in the freezer

compartment removed.

In fridges with new generation cooling technology, dry cold air is

pumped evenly into the fridge and freezer compartments using a

fan. The cold air cools your food evenly and uniformly, preventing

humidity and ice build up.

In the refrigerator compartment, air blown by the fan located at the

top of refrigerator compartment is cooled while passing through

the gap behind the air duct. At the same time, the air is blown

out through the holes in the air duct evenly spreading cool air

throughout the refrigerator compartment.

As there is no air passage between the freezer and refrigerator

compartments there will be no odor mixing.

As a result of this, your fridge with new generation cooling

technology gives you ease of use as well as huge volume and

aesthetic appearance.

ARRANGING FOOD IN THE APPLIANCE

CHAPTER - 3

Refrigerator compartment

• To reduce humidity and consequent increase of frost never place liquids in unsealed

containers in the refrigerator.

• Never place warm food in the refrigerator. Warm food should be allowed to cool at

room temperature and arranged to ensure adequate air circulation in the refrigerator

compartment.

• Arrange meat and cleaned sh (wrapped in packages or sheets of plastic) and use

them within 1-2 days.

• You can put the fruits and vegetables into the crisper without any packaging.

Important note:

• Cover any cooked dishes when you put them in the fridge. Place them in the fridge

when they are cool, otherwise temperature/humidity

inside the fridge increases which causes the fridge

to work harder. Covering food and beverages also

preserves their avour and aroma.

• Potatoes, onion and garlic should not be kept in the

fridge.

• Make sure food does not touch the temperature sensor

which is located in the refrigerator compartment.

To keep an optimum temperature in the refrigerator

compartment, make sure food doesn’t make contact

with the sensor.

• For normal working conditions, it will be sufcient to

adjust the temperature setting of your refrigerator to +4 °C.

• The temperature of the fridge compartment should be in the range of 0-8 °C, fresh

foods below 0 °C are iced and rotted, bacterial load increases above 8 °C, and spoils.

• Do not put hot food in the refrigerator immediately, wait for the temperature to pass

outside. Hot foods increase the degree of your refrigerator and cause food poisoning

and unnecessary spoiling of the food.

• Meat, sh, etc. should be store in the chiller compartment of the food, and the vegetable

compartment is preferred for vegetables. (if available)

• To prevent cross contamination, meat products and fruit vegetables are not stored

together.

• Foods should be placed in the refrigerator in closed containers or covered to prevent

moisture and odors.

The table below is a quick guide to show you the most efficient way to store the major food

groups in your refrigerator compartment.

Food Maximum storage time How and where to store

Vegetables and fruits 1 week Vegetable bin

Meat and sh 2 - 3 Days

Wrap in plastic foil, bags, or in a meat container

and store on the glass shelf

Fresh cheese 3 - 4 Days On the designated door shelf

EN -16-

Freezer compartment

• The freezer compartment is used for freezing fresh food, for storing frozen foods for the

period of time indicated on packaging and for making ice cubes.

• Do not put fresh and warm foods in the freezer door shelves to be frozen. Only use the

door shelves for storing frozen foods.

• For optimum appliance performance to reach maximum freezing capacity, Set the re-

frigerator at 4

C for 24 hours before placing fresh food into the freezer.

• After placing fresh food into the freezer, change the setting to 2

C for 24 hours is gener-

ally sufcient. After 24 hours, you can reduce the setting if required.

• Do not put fresh and warm food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen food.

• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and any other food which needs to

be frozen quickly) more quickly because of the freezing shelf’s greater freezing power.

• While freezing fresh foods (i.e. meat, sh and mincemeat) divide them in portions you

will use in a single serving.

• While freezing fresh foods, the maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen

in 24 hours is indicated on the appliance label.

• For optimum appliance performance to reach maximum freezing capacity, turn the

thermostat knob to the coldest setting 24 hours before placing fresh food into the

freezer.

• After placing fresh food into the freezer, having the thermostat knob set to the coldest

setting for 24 hours is generally sufcient. After 24 hours, you can reduce the thermostat

knob setting if required.

• Attention. To save energy, if you are only freezing small amounts of food, you do not

need to set the thermostat knob to the coldest setting.

• For storing frozen foods, the instructions shown on frozen food packages should always

be followed carefully. If no information is provided, food should not be stored for more

than 3 months from the purchased date.

• When buying frozen food ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures

and that the packing is intact.

• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality

of the food and should be returned to the freezing surfaces of the unit in the shortest

possible time.

• If a package of frozen food shows the sign of humidity and abnormal swelling it is

probable that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the

contents have deteriorated.

• The storage life of frozen foods depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting,

how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time required to
