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

10°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 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.

5 Using your freezer

The operating temperature is

regulated by the temperature control.

Warm Cold

1 2 3 4 5

(Or) Min. Max.

0=System cooling is off.

1=Lowest cooling setting

(Warmest setting).

5=Highest cooling setting (Coldest

setting).

The average temperature inside the

fridge should be around +5°C.

Please choose the setting according

to the desired temperature.

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 foods 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 interior temperature of your

refrigerator changes for the following

reasons;

• Seasonal temperatures,

• Frequent opening of the door and

leaving the door open for long

periods,

• Food put into the refrigerator

without cooling down to the room

temperature,

• The location of the refrigerator in

the room (e.g. exposing to sunlight).

• You may adjust the varying interior

temperature due to such reasons

by using the thermostat.

• If the ambient temperature

is higher than 32°C, turn the

thermostat button to maximum

position.

• If the ambient temperature is lower

than 25°C, turn the thermostat

button to minimum position.
