the refrigerator was determined

with the compartment drawers

removed,except if available

bottom drawer and with

maximum amount of food

loaded. There is no risk in

removing a shelf or drawer to

make suitable for the shapes

and sizes of the foods to be

stored.

• Thawing frozen food in fridge

compartment will both provide

energy saving and preserve the

food quality.

5. Using your refrigerator

5.1 Temperature Control And Adjustment

The operating temperature is

regulated by the temperature control.

Warm Cold

1 2 3 4 5

(Or) Min. Max.

1=Lowest cooling setting

(Warmest setting).

5=Highest cooling setting (Coldest

setting).

The average temperature inside

the fridge should be around +5°C.

Please choose the setting

according to the desired

temperature.

Please note that there will be

different temperatures in the

cooling area.

The coldest region is immediately

above the vegetable compartment.

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.

5.2 Thermostat setting button

The interior temperature of your

refrigerator changes for the

following reasons;

• Seasonal temperatures,

• Frequent opening of the door

and leaving the door open for

long periods,

• Food put into the refrigerator

without cooling down to the

room temperature,

• The location of the refrigerator

in the room (e.g. exposing to

sunlight).

• You may adjust the varying

interior temperature due to

such reasons by using the

thermostat. Numbers around

the thermostat button indicates

the cooling degrees.

• If the ambient temperature

is higher than 25°C, turn the

thermostat button to maximum

position.

• If the ambient temperature

is lower than 25°C, turn the

thermostat button to minimum

position.

5.3 Cooling

Food storage

The fridge compartment is for the

short-term storage of fresh food

and drinks.

Store milk products in the intended

compartment in the cooler

Bottles can be stored in the bottle

holder or in the bottle shelf of the

door.

Raw meat is best kept in

a polyethylene bag in the

compartment at the very bottom of

the cooler.

Allow hot foods and beverages to

cool to room temperature prior to

placing them in the cooler.

• Attention

Store alcoholic spirits standing

upright and tightly closed.

• Attention

Do not store explosive substances

or containers with flammable

propellant gases (spray cans etc.)

in the device. There is a danger of

explosion.

6. Maintenance

and cleaning

Cleaning your fridge at regular in-

tervals will extend the service life

of the product.

B WARNING:

Unplug the product before cleaning

it.

• Never use gasoline, benzene or

similar substances for cleaning

purposes.

• Never use any sharp and

abrasive tools, soap, household

cleaners, detergent and wax

polish for cleaning.

• For non-No Frost products,

water drops and frosting up to a

fingerbreadth occur on the rear

wall of the Fridge compartment.

Do not clean it; never apply oil

or similar agents on it.

• Only use slightly damp

microfiber cloths to clean the

outer surface of the product.

Sponges and other types of

cleaning cloths may scratch the

surface

• Dissolve one teaspoon of bi-

carbonate in half litre of water.

Soak a cloth with the solution

and wrung it thoroughly. Wipe

the interior of the refrigerator

6.1 Avoiding bad odours

•

Materials that may cause odour

are not used in the production of

our refrigerators. However, due

to inappropriate food preserving

conditions and not cleaning the

inner surface of the refrigerator

as required can bring forth the

problem of odour. Pay attention

to following to avoid this

problem:

• Keeping the refrigerator clean

is important. Food residuals,

stains, etc. can cause odour.

Therefore, clean the refrigerator

with bi-carbonate dissolved in

water every few months. Never

use detergents or soap.

• Keep the food in closed

containers. Microorganisms

spreading out from uncovered

containers can cause

unpleasant odours.

• Never keep the food that have

passed best before dates and

spoiled in the refrigerator.

6.2 Protecting the plas-

tic surfaces

Do not put liquid oils or oil-cooked

meals in your refrigerator in un-

sealed containers as they dama-

ge the plastic surfaces of the refri-

gerator. If oil is spilled or smeared

onto the plastic surfaces, clean and

rinse the relevant part of the surfa-

ce at once with warm water.
