4.1 Things to be done for
energy saving
A
Connecting the product
to electric energy saving
systems is risky as it may
cause damage on the
product.
•
Do not leave the doors of your
refrigerator open for a long time.
•
Do not put hot food or drinks in
your refrigerator.
•
Do not overload the refrigerator,
cooling capacity will fall when the
air circulation inside is hindered.
•
To be able store maximum food
in the freezer compartment of
your refrigerator, the upper flap
and drawer must be removed and
placed on top of glass shelves.
Power consumption stated for your
refrigerator has been determined
after removing the icebox, ice tray
and flap and the middle drawer
as to allow maximum loading.
Using the upper flap and lower
drawer while loading is highly
recommended.
•
Depending on the features of
your product, thawing frozen food
in fridge compartment will both
provide energy saving and preserve
the food quality.
•
Airflow should not be blocked by
placing foods in front of the freezer
compartment fan. Foods should be
loaded by leaving minimum 5 cm
space in front of the protective fan
grid.
The temperature sensor in the freezer
compartment must not directly contact
food packages. In case of contact with
the sensor, the power consumption of
the product may increase.
C
Inside of your product
must be cleaned.
C
If two coolers are to be
installed side by side,
there should be at least
4 cm distance between
them.
4.2 Initial use
Before starting to use your
refrigerator, ensure that all
preparations are made in
accordance with the instructions
in sections “Instructions for
safety and environment” and
“Installation”.
Run the product without putting
any food for 6 hours and do not
open its door unless certainly
required.
C
You will hear a noise
when the compressor
starts up. The liquids and
gases sealed within the
refrigeration system may
also give rise to noise,
even if the compressor
is not running and this is
normal.
C
It is normal that the front
edges of the refrigerator
are hot. These areas are
designed to be warm to
avoid condensation.
