4.1. What to do for energy saving
A
Connecting the product to electronic
energy-saving systems is harmful, as it
may damage the product.
t
Do not keep the refrigerator doors open for long
periods.
t
Do not place hot food or beverages into the
refrigerator.
t
Do not overfill the refrigerator; blocking the internal
air flow will reduce cooling capacity.
t
In order to store the maximum amount of food into
the cooler compartment of your refrigerator, you
should take out the upper drawers and place it onto
the glass rack. The declared energy consumption of
your refrigerator was determined by taking out the
cooler, ice tray and upper drawers in a way that will
enable maximum storage. Using the below drawer
when storing is strongly recommended. Energy
saving function should be activated for best energy
consumption.
t
You should not block the airflow by putting food in
front of the cooler fan. A space of minimum 3cm
must be left in front of the protective fan wire when
placing food.
t
Depending on the product’s features; defrosting
frozen foods in the cooler compartment will ensure
energy saving and preserve food quality.
t
Food should be stored using the drawers in the
cooler compartment in order to ensure energy
saving and protect food in better conditions.
t
Food packages should not be in direct contact with
the heat sensor located in the cooler compartment.
If they are in contact with the sensor, energy
consumption of the appliance might increase.
t
Make sure the foods are not in contact with the
cooler compartment temperature sensor described
below.
t
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.
4.2. First Use
Before using your refrigerator, make sure the necessary
preparations are made in line with the instructions in
“Safety and environment instructions” and “Installation”
sections.

compressor is engaged. It is normal to
hear sound even when the compressor is
inactive, due to the compressed liquids and
gasses in the cooling system.
C
Front edges of the product might heat
up. This is normal. These areas are
designed to warm up in order to prevent
condensation.
C
