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.

• 

for a freestanding appliance; 
‘this refrigerating appliance is 
not intended to be used as a 
built-in appliance’ ;

• 

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.

• 

In order to store maximum 
amount of food in the freezer 
compartment, the icematic, 
available in the freezer 
compartment and easily 
removable by hand, shall be 
taken out. Net volume and 
energy consumption values 
declared on the power data 
plate of your refrigerator 
are measured and tested by 
removing the icematic. Do 
not remove the shelves inside 
the freezer compartment 
and on the door of freezer 
compartment shall not be 
removed and they shall always 
be used they provide ease of 
use and efficiency in energy 
consumption.

• 

Airflow should not be blocked 
by placing foods on the sides of 
the freezer compartment fan. 
A minimum distance of 3 cm 
shall be provided on the sides of 
protective fan cover.

• 

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.

• 

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.

• 

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. 
In this energy saving function, 
functions and components such 
as compressor, fan, heater, 
defrost, lighting, display and so 
on will operate according to the 
needs to consume minimum 
energy while maintaining the 
freshness of your foodstuff.

• 

Depending on the features of 
your product, thawing frozen
