Preparation
Read the "Safety Instructions" section
first!
For a freestanding appliance; 'this
•
refrigerating appliance is not intended to
be used as a built-in appliance.
Your refrigerator should be installed at
•
least 30 cm away from heat sources
such as hobs, ovens, central heater and
stoves and at least 5 cm away from
electrical ovens and should not be
located under direct sunlight.
The ambient temperature of the room
•
where you install your refrigerator
should at least be +5°C. Operating your
refrigerator under cooler conditions is
not recommended with regard to its
efficiency.
Please make sure that the interior of
•
your refrigerator is cleaned thoroughly.
If two refrigerators are to be installed
•
side by side, there should be at least 2
cm distance between them.
When you operate your refrigerator for
•
the first time, please observe the
following instructions during the initial 6
hours.
The door should not be opened
•
frequently.
It must be operated empty without any
•
food in it.
Do not unplug your refrigerator. If a
•
power failure occurs out of your control,
please see the warnings in the
"Recommended solutions for the
problems" section.
Original packaging and foam materials
•
should be kept for future transportations
or moving.
The baskets/drawers that are provided
•
with the chill compartment must always
be in use for low energy consumption
and for better storage conditions.
Food contact with the temperature
•
sensor in the freezer compartment may
increase energy consumption of the
appliance. Thus any contact with the
sensor(s) must be avoided.
In some models, the instrument panel
•
automatically turns off 1 minutes after
the door has closed. It will be
reactivated when the door has opened
or pressed on any key.
Due to temperature change as a result
•
of opening/closing the product door
during operation, condensation on the
door/body shelves and the glass
containers is normal.
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. Functions and
components such as compressor, fan,
heater, defrost, lighting, display and so
on will operate according to the needs
to consume minimum energy under
these circumstances.
In case of multiple options are present
•
glass shelves must be placed so that
the air outlets at the backwall are not
blocked, prefably air outlets are
remaining below the glass shelf. This
combination may help impoving air
distribution and energy efficiency.
