Energy Saving Tips
1- Ensure your appliance is installed in
a well ventilated area.
2- Ensure the time between buying
chilled/frozen food and placing them
in your appliance is kept at minimum,
particularly in summer. We recommend
you use a cool bag or a special carrier
bag to carry frozen food.
3- Do not leave the door (s) of your
appliance open longer than necessary
and ensure they are closed properly
after each opening.
4- Defrost frozen food in the fridge
compartment, so that frozen food acts
as an ice pack to assist cooling in the
fridge.

Points to be considered
when re-transporting your
refrigerator
1. Your refrigerator must be
emptied and cleaned prior to any
transportation.
2. Shelves, accessories, crisper and etc.
in your refrigerator must be fastened
securely by adhesive tape against any
jolt before repackaging.
3. Packaging must be tied with thick
tapes and strong ropes and the
rules of transportation printed on the
package must be followed.
3. Clean the interior of the refrigerator as
recommended in the “Maintenance
and cleaning” section.
4. Plug the refrigerator into the wall
outlet. When the fridge door is open
the fridge compartment interior light
will come on.
5. You will hear a noise as the
compressor starts up. The liquid and
gases sealed within the refrigeration
system may also give rise to noise,
even if the compressor is not running
and this is quite normal.
6. Front edges of the refrigerator may
feel warm. This is normal. These
areas are designed to be warm to
avoid condensation.
Please do not forget…
Every recycled material is an
indispensable source for the nature
and for our national resources.
If you wish to contribute to recycling
the packaging materials, you can
get further information from the
environmental bodies or local
authorities.
Before operating your
refrigerator
Before starting to use your refrigerator
check the following:
Electric connection
Connect your product to a grounded
socket which is being protected by a
fuse with the appropriate capacity.
Important:
1. Is the interior of the refrigerator dry
and can the air circulate freely in the
rear of it?
• The connection must be in
compliance with national regulations.
• The power cable plug must be easily
accessible after installation.
• The specified voltage must be equal
to your mains voltage.
2. You can install the 2 plastic wedges
as illustrated in the figure. Plastic
wedges will provide the required
distance between your refrigerator
and the wall in order to allow the air
circulation. (The illustrated figure is
only an example and does not match
exactly with your product.)
• Extension cables and multiway plugs
must not be used for connection.

recess in the wall, there must be at
least 5 cm distance with the ceiling
and at least 5 cm with the wall.
If the floor is covered with a carpet,
your product must be elevated 2.5 cm
from the floor.
B A damaged power cable must be
replaced by a qualified electrician.
B Product must not be operated before
it is repaired! There is danger of
electric shock!
Disposing of the packaging
The packing materials may be
dangerous for children. Keep the
packing materials out of the reach
of children or dispose them of by
classifying them in accordance
with the waste instructions. Do not
dispose them of along with the normal
household waste.
The packing of your refrigerator is
produced from recyclable materials.
Disposing of your old
refrigerator
4. Place your refrigerator on an even
floor surface to prevent jolts.
Dispose of your old machine without
giving any harm to the environment.
• You may consult your authorized
dealer or waste collection center of
your municipality about the disposal
of your refrigerator.
5. Do not keep your refrigerator in
ambient temperatures under 10°C.
Before disposing of your refrigerator,
cut out the electric plug and, if there
are any locks on the door, make them
inoperable in order to protect children
against any danger.

5 Using your refrigerator
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 food 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 operating temperature is regulated
by the temperature control.

defrost your appliance at least twice
a year, or whenever the ice build-up
exceeds 7 mm.
Defrost your device when there is only
little or no food in it.
After the defrosting is done, clean the
inside.
Take out the food. Wrap the food in
several layers of paper, or a blanket,
and keep it in a cold place.
Unplug the appliance or switch off the
circuit breaker to start the defrosting
process.
Reconnect the appliance to the mains.
Place the frozen food into the drawers
and slide the drawers into the freezer.
