• Your fridge may have an odour when it is operated for the rst time. This is normal and

the odour will fade when your fridge starts to cool.

• Before connecting your fridge, ensure that the information on the data plate (voltage

and connected load) matches that of the mains electricity supply. If in doubt, consult a

qualied electrician.

• Insert the plug into a socket with an efcient ground connection. If the socket has no

ground contact or the plug does not match, we recommend you consult a qualied

electrician for assistance.

• The appliance must be connected with a properly installed fused socket. The power

supply (AC) and voltage at the operating point must match with the details on the name

plate of the appliance (the name plate is located on the inside left of the appliance).

• We do not accept responsibility for any damages that occur due to ungrounded usage.

• Place your fridge where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight.

THE VARIOUS FUNCTION AND POSSIBILITIES PART - 2.

Information on No-Frost technology

No-frost refrigerators differ from other static refrigerators in their

operating principle.

In normal refrigerators the humidity entering the refrigerators due to

opening the door and the humidity inherent in the food causes freezing

in the backside of air duct. To defrost the frost and ice in the backside

of air duct, you are periodically required to turn off the refrigerator,

place the food that needs to be kept cooled in a separately cooled.

The situation is completely different in no-frost refrigerators. Dry and

cold air is blown into the refrigerator compartment homogeneously

and evenly from several points via a blower fan. Cold air dispersed

homogeneously and evenly between the shelves cools all of your

food equally and uniformly, thus preventing humidity and freezing.

Therefore your no-frost refrigerators allows you ease of use, in

addition to its huge capacity and stylish appearance.

• Do not start another adjustment before completing one adjustment.

• Temperature adjustments should be made according to the frequency of door openings

and the quantity of food kept inside the fridge.

• When you rst switch on the appliance, allow it to operate for 24 hours in order to reach

Accessories

Extra Chill Compartment

Ideal to preserve the taste and texture of fresh cuts and

cheese. The pull out drawer assures an environment

with a lower temperature compared to the rest of the

fridge, thanks to the active circulation of cold air.

(In some models)

Chiller shelf

CustomFlex

CustomFlex offers you the freedom to customize the space in

your refrigerator. Inside of the door there are a storage container

and mobile containers, so you can tailor the space to your needs.

The containers are even removable, so you can remove them

from the refrigerator for easy access.

• Lid of CustomFlex storage container can

be pulled towards arrow for opening.

• For closing, lid can be pulled towards

reverse direction.

(In some models)

EN -17-

The Fresh Dial

If the crisper is full, the fresh dial located in front of the

crisper should be opened. This allows the air in the

crisper and the humidity rate to be controlled, to increase

the life of food within.

The dial, located behind the shelf, must be opened if any

condensation is seen on the glass shelf.

(In some models)

Fresh dial

Visual and text descriptions in the accessories section may vary according

to the model of your appliance.

EN -18-

Visual and text descriptions in the accessories section may vary according

to the model of your appliance.

Temperature indicator

In order to help you better set your refrigerator, we have equipped it with a

temperature indicator located in the coldest area.

To better store the food in your refrigerator, especially in the coldest area, make

sure the message “OK” appears on the temperature indicator. If « OK » does

not appear, this means that the temperature setting has not been done properly.

Since “OK” appears in black, it will be difcult to see this indication if the

temperature indicator is badly lit. To be able to see this indication properly, there

should be enough light.

Each time the temperature setting device is changed, wait for the stabilisation of the

temperature inside the appliance before proceeding, if necessary, with a new temperature

setting. Please change the position of the temperature setting device progressively and wait

at least 12 hours before starting a new check and potential change.

NOTE: Following repeated openings (or prolonged opening) of the door or after putting fresh

food into the appliance, it is normal for the indication “OK” not to appear in the temperature

setting indicator. If there is an abnormal ice crystals build up (bottom wall of the appliance)

on the refrigerator compartment evaporator (overloaded appliance, high room temperature,

frequent door openings), put the temperature setting device on a lower position until

compressor off periods are obtained again.

Putting food in the coldest area of the refrigerator

Your foods will be better stored if you put them in the most appropriate

cooling area. The coldest area is just above the crisper.

The following symbol indicates the coldest area of your refrigerator.

To be sure to have a low temperature in this area, make sure the shelf is

located at the level of this symbol, as shown in the illustration.

OK

The upper limit of the coldest area is

indicated by the lower side of the sticker

(head of the arrow). The coldest area upper

shelf must be at the same level with the

arrow head. The coldest area is below this

level.

As these shelves are removable, make

sure they are always at the same level with

these zone limits described on the stickers,

in order to guarantee temperatures in this

area.
