Preparation
• For a freestanding appliance;
'this refrigerating appliance is not
intended to be used as a built-in
appliance.
• Your cooler/freezer 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.
• Please make sure that the interior
of your cooler/freezer is cleaned
thoroughly.
• If two coolers are to be installed side
by side, there should be at least 2 cm
distance between them.
• When you operate your cooler/
freezer for the first time, please
observe the following instructions
during the initial six hours.
• Its door should not be opened
frequently.
• It must be operated empty without
placing any food in it.
• Do not unplug your cooler/freezer.
If a power failure occurs out of your
control, please see the warnings in
the "Recommended solutions for
the problems" section.
• 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.
• This product has been designed to
function at ambient temperatures
up to 43 °C (90 SDgrF). Even if the
ambient temperature falls to -15
°C, frozen food in the freezer does
not thaw thanks to its Advanced
Electronic Temperature Control
System. For the first installation, the
product should NOT be placed under
low ambient temperatures. This is
because the freezer cannot go down
to standard operation temperature.
When reaching continuous operation,
the product can be moved to another
place. Thus, later you can place
your product in the garage or an
unheated room without the concern
of causing frozen food to get rotten.
However, it is likely that above
mentioned low temperatures may
cause the freezing of the food in the
fridge compartment; thus, please
consume the food items in the fridge
in a controlled way as needed. When
ambient temperature goes back
to normal, you may change button
setting according to your need.
• If the ambient temperature is below
0°C, the food in fridge compartment
will freeze. Therefore, we recommend
not using the fridge compartment
in such low ambient temperatures.
You may continue to use the freezer
compartment as usual.
• 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.
