5.1 What to Do for Energy Saving
Connecting the product to elec-
tronic energy-saving systems is
harmful, as it may damage the
product.
• This refrigerating appliance is not inten-
ded to be used as a built in appliance.
• Do not keep the refrigerator doors open
for long periods.
• Do not place hot food or beverages into
the refrigerator.
• Do not overfill the refrigerator; blocking
the internal air flow will reduce cooling
capacity.
• In order to load the maximum quantity of
food into the freezer compartment of
your refrigerator, the upper drawers
should be taken out and the food should
be placed onto the wire/glass shelves.
Net volume and energy consumption in-
formation declared in the energy label of
your refrigerator was tested by taking out
the upper drawers in the cooler depart-
ment and the ice bucket, which is easily
removable by hand.
• Using the below drawer when storing is
strongly recommended.
• Depending on the product's features; de-
frosting frozen foods in the cooler com-
partment will ensure energy saving and
preserve food quality.
4.5 Hot Surface Warning
The side walls of your product are equipped
with cooler pipes to enhance the cooling
system. High pressure fluid may flow
through these surfaces, and cause hot sur-
faces on the side walls. This is normal and
it does not require servicing. Be careful
when you contact these areas.
• Make sure the foods are not in contact
with the cooler compartment temperat-
ure sensor described below.
• If they are in contact with the sensor, en-
ergy consumption of the appliance might
increase
• Food shall be stored using the drawers in
the cooler compartment in order to en-
sure energy saving and protect food in
better conditions.
• Food packages shall not be in direct con-
tact with the temperature sensor located
in the freezer compartment.
5.2 First Use
Before using your refrigerator, make sure
the necessary preparations are made in line
with the instructions in "Safety and Environ-
mental Instructions" and "Installation" sec-
