5.1 What To Do For Energy Saving
When loading the food, leave enough
space inside the refrigerator to allow suf-
ficient air circulation for cooling.
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. Under these circum-
stances, functions and components such
as compressor, fan, heater, defrost, light-
ing, display and so on will operate ac-
cording to the needs by consuming min-
imum energy.
In case that multiple options are present,
glass shelves must be placed so that the
air outlets at the rear wall are not blocked
and preferably, in a way that air outlets
remain below the glass shelf. This com-
bination may help improving air distribu-
tion and energy efficiency.
Using the below drawer when storing is
strongly recommended.
For optimum performance, Quick Freez-
ing can be used (if available), 24 hours
prior to placing fresh foods in the freezer.
In most cases, 24 hours is enough for the
Quick Freezing function after fresh foods
are placed in the freezer. After some
time, Quick Freezing function will deactiv-
ate automatically.
When freezing a small amount of food,
Quick Freezing function can be deactiv-
ated after some time to ensure energy
saving.
Store food in the cooler or chill compart-
ment according to proper storage condi-
tions to save energy.
5.2 First Use
Before using your product make sure the
necessary preparations are made in line
with the instructions in "Safety Instructions"

8 Use of Your Appliance
8.1 Food Storage in Freezer, Refri-
gerator and Chill Compartment
Storing food in the freezer compartment
You can cool faster by activating the Fast
Freeze function 4-6 hours before freez-
ing.
Bring hot foods to room temperature be-
fore placing them in the freezer compart-
ment.
Foods to be frozen should be divided into
portions large enough to be consumed
each time and frozen in separate pack-
ages.
It is recommended that you wrap food
before putting it in the freezer.
To prevent the storage period from ex-
ceeding, write the freezing date, duration
and name of the food on the package ac-
cording to the storage periods of differ-
ent foods.
background
EN / 25
Eat thawed foods quickly. Thawed foods
cannot be refrozen unless cooked. It is
not safe to consume fresh foods that
have been thawed and refrozen without
cooking.
When freezing fresh food, do not allow it
to come into contact with already frozen
food. Otherwise, the frozen food will
thaw.
Storing frozen foods
When storing food, comply with the times
specified in these instructions.
To preserve the quality of food, try to
keep the time between purchase and
storage as short as possible.
Buy frozen foods stored at –18°C or be-
low.
Avoid buying foods with ice, etc., in their
packaging. This means the product may
have partially thawed and refrozen. Tem-
perature affects food quality.
Do not exceed the storage time recom-
mended by the food manufacturer. Re-
move only the amount of food you need
from the freezer.
Except in cases of extreme environ-
mental conditions, if your product is set
to the set values specified in the recom-
mended set value table, food will remain
fresh for longer in both the fresh food
compartment and the freezer compart-
ment.
If the fresh food compartment is set to a
lower temperature, fresh fruits and veget-
ables may partially freeze.
Quick freezing
1. Activate the quick freezing function 24
hours before placing your fresh foods.
2. After 24 hours after pressing the but-
ton, place your food that you want to
freeze in the third or fourth shelves
with higher freezing capacity.
3. Once the quick freezing function is ac-
tivated, it is automatically cancelled
after a period of time.
Deep freezer information
According to IEC 62552 standards, for
every 100 liters of freezer compartment
volume, the product must be able to freeze
4.5 kg of food at 25°C room temperature in
24 hours at -18°C or lower temperatures.
Long-term preservation of food is only pos-
sible at temperatures of -18°C and below.
You can preserve the freshness of food
items (in the deep freezer at temperatures
of -18°C and below) for months.
Food items to be frozen should not be al-
lowed to come into contact with previously
frozen foods to prevent them from partially
thawing.
To extend the storage life of frozen veget-
ables, boil them and drain them. After
draining, place them in airtight containers
and place them in the freezer. Bananas, to-
matoes, lettuce, celery, hard-boiled eggs,
potatoes, etc., are not suitable for freezing.
Freezing these foods will only negatively af-
fect their nutritional value and eating qual-
ity. There is no risk of spoilage that poses a
health risk.
Placement of foods
Freezer compartment shelves: Various
frozen foods such as meat, fish, ice cream,
vegetables, etc.
Refrigerator compartment shelves: Food in
pots, covered dishes and covered contain-
ers, eggs (in a covered container)
Refrigerator compartment door shelves:
Small, packaged food or beverages
Vegetable bin: Vegetables and fruits
Fresh food compartment: Deli products
(breakfast items, meat products to be con-
sumed quickly)
Storing Food in the Refrigerator Com-
partment
If the compartment door is opened and
closed frequently and left open for long
periods of time, the compartment tem-
peratures will increase significantly,
which may reduce the life of the food and
cause the food to spoil.
EN
background
EN / 26
To avoid any change in odor or taste,
foods should be stored in closed contain-
ers.
Do not store too much food in your
product. To achieve better and more
even cooling, place the food items
spaced apart so that cold air can circu-
late between them.
Leave space between the food and the in-
side wall to allow air flow. Food placed
against the back wall can freeze.
Allow cooked, hot food to cool to room
temperature before placing it in the appli-
ance. Then, you can place the lukewarm
food on the lower shelves of your appli-
ance. Do not place lukewarm food near
easily perishable foods.
Defrost your frozen food in the fresh food
compartment. This way, you can use the
frozen food to cool the fresh food com-
partment and save energy.
Storing unripe tropical fruits (mango, vari-
ous types of melon, papaya, banana,
pineapple) in your produce can acceler-
ate the ripening process. This is not re-
commended as it will result in a shorter
shelf life.
Onions, garlic, ginger, and other root ve-
getables should be stored in a dark, cool
room, not in the produce itself.
If you notice that any food inside the
product has spoiled, discard that food
and clean any accessories that came into
contact with it.
To quickly cool large pot dishes like
soups and stews, you can divide them
into shallow containers and place them
in your container.
Do not place unwrapped foods near
eggs.
Keep fruits and vegetables separate from
each other and store each type together
(e.g. apples with apples, carrots with car-
rots).
Remove the greens from the plastic bag,
wrap them in a paper towel or dishcloth,
and then add them to the dish. If you
wash these types of foods before adding
them to the dish, remember to dry them
afterwards.
You can create a humid environment and
allow air flow by storing fruits and veget-
ables that are prone to drying in perfor-
ated or open-mouthed plastic bags.
Except in cases of extreme environ-
mental conditions, if your product is set
to the set values specified (in the recom-
mended set value table), the food will re-
main fresh for longer in both the fresh
food compartment and the freezer com-
partment.
Do not store cold-sensitive vegetables
such as leafy greens, tomatoes, and cu-
cumbers in the cold compartment. If the
cold compartment must be used to store
vegetables, ensure that your refrigerator's
control panel is set to 5°C or warmer.
Food Storage in the Chill Compartment
In the cold compartment, the temperature
of the food being stored can vary between
+3°C and -3°C. Temperatures may drop be-
low 0°C in the chill compartment, therefore
it is not suitable for storing fresh fruits/ve-
getables. If you need to store fresh food in
the chill compartment, make sure you set
the refrigerator setting to 5°C or warmer.
Store different foods in different places
according to their characteristics.

9.5 Using the Door Water Dis-
penser
After connecting your product to the water
source or changing the water filter, flush
the water system. Use a sturdy container to
press and hold the water dispenser lever
for 5 seconds, then release for another 5
seconds. Continue this cycle until water be-
gins to flow. Once water starts flowing,
continue pressing and releasing the water
dispenser pedal (press for 5 seconds, re-
lease for 5 seconds) until you reach 4 gal-
lons. 15 liters of water has been dispensed.
This process purges the air from the filter
and water dispenser system, preparing the
water filter for use. Additional purging may
background
EN / 29
be required in some homes. Water may
gush from the dispenser as air is removed
from the system.
Allow the product to cool for 24 hours and
let the water cool. Remove enough water
each week to ensure a fresh supply.
After continuously dispensing water for 5
minutes, the water dispenser will stop dis-
pensing water to prevent overflow. To re-
sume dispensing water, press the dis-
penser pedal again.
*Water fountain at the door
*Water Intake
When you press the pedal to turn on the
water fountain, hold a container under the
spout of the fountain.
Release the tap to stop drawing water.
It's normal for the first few glasses of water
from the spring to be lukewarm.
Use only clean drinking water.
If the water fountain hasn't been used for a
long time, pour out the first few cups of wa-
ter to obtain clean water.
For the first use, you need to wait approx-
imately 24 hours for the water to cool
down.
Remove the glass a little while after pulling
the trigger.
For using the water fountain
Before using your product for the first time
and after changing your water filter, water
may drip from the dispenser. To prevent
water from dripping or leaking from the dis-
penser, purge 5-6 gallons (approximately
20 liters) of water from the dispenser be-
fore using your product for the first time
and after each water filter change to re-
move air from the system. This removes
trapped air and prevents the dispenser
from leaking. If there is an obstruction in
the water flow, the straightness of the wa-
ter line and the coupling position at the
back of the unit should be checked.
It's normal for your water dispenser to leak
only a few drops of water after you've taken
some.
If you haven't used the water dispenser for
a long time, pour out the first few glasses
of water to get clean water.
