If there is noise;
The cooling gas which circulates in the refrigerator circuit may make a slight noise (bubbling
sound) even when the compressor is not running. Do not worry this is quite normal. If these
sounds are different check that;
• The appliance is well levelled
• Nothing is touching the rear.
• The stuffs on the appliance are vibrating.
If there is water in the lower part of the refrigerator,
Check that;
The drain hole for defrost water is not clogged(Use defrost drain plug to clean the drain hole)
Recommendations
• The compressor protection thermal fuse will cutout after sudden power breakdowns or
after unplugging the appliance, because the gas in the cooling system is not stabilised.
This is quite normal, and the fridge will restart after 4 or 5 minutes.
• The cooling unit of your refrigerator is hidden in the rear wall. Therefore, water droplets or
icing may occur on the rear surface of your fridge due to the operation of the compressor
in specified intervals. This is normal. There is no need to perform a defrosting operation
unless the icing is excessive.
• If the appliance is not used for a long time (for example during the summer holidays),
unplug from main socket. Defrost and clean the refrigerator leaving the door open to
prevent the formation of mildew and smell.
• If there is still a problem with your refrigerator although you have followed the instructions
in this book, please consult you're nearest authorized service center.
• The appliance you have purchased is designed for home type use and can be used only
at home and for the stated purposes. It is not suitable for commercial or common use. If
the consumer use the appliance in a way that does not comply with these features, we
emphasise that the producer and the dealer shall not be responsible for any repair and
failure within the guarantee period.

Tips for saving energy

1– Install the appliance in a cool, well ventilated room , but not in direct sunlight and not
near heat source (radiator, cooker.. etc). Otherwise use an insulating plate.
2– Allow warm food and drinks to cool down outside the appliance.
3– When thawing frozen food, place it in the refrigerator compartment. The low
temperature of the frozen food will help to cool the refrigerator compartment when it is
thawing. So it reduces the energy requirements.
4– When placing, drinks and liquids they must be covered. Otherwise humidity increases
at the appliance. Therefore the working time gets longer. Also covering drinks and
liquids helps preserve the smell and taste.
5– When placing food and drinks, open the appliance door as briefly as possible.
6– Keep the covers closed of any different temperature compartment in the appliance
(crisper, chiller ...etc ).
7– Door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
