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.

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.

Refrigerator/User Manual
• 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 5 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.
