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 six 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.
