CHAPTER 1. BEFORE USING YOUR FRIDGE
Information on No-Frost Technology
No-frost fridges differ from other static fridges in their
operating principle.
In normal fridges, the humidity entering the fridge when the
door is opened and the humidity of the food causes freezing
in the freezer compartment. To defrost the build-up of ice in
the freezer compartment, you should turn off the fridge, take
the food that needs to be kept in a constant temperature
off the fridge, and remove the ice gathered in the freezer
department periodically.
The situation is completely different in no-frost fridges. Dry
and cold air is blown into the fridge and freezer departments
homogeneously from several points via a blower fan. Cold air
dispersed homogeneously even between the shelves cools
all your food equally and uniformly, thus prevents humidity
and freezing.
Therefore your no-frost fridge allows you ease of use, besides its huge volume and stylish
appearance.

CHAPTER 3. FOOD STORAGE IN THE APPLIANCE
This freezer is a 4 star rated ( ) appliance.
Optimal performance is obtained at temperatures between +16°C and +32°C.
The use of a freezer is for freezing fresh food and storing frozen food for long periods
of time and making ice cubes.
Do not put fresh or warm food with frozen food side by side as it can thaw the frozen
food.
While freezing fresh food (i.e. meat, sh etc) divide them into smaller portions, this will
allow you to defrost only the food you need.
For storing frozen food; the instructions shown on frozen food packages should always
be followed carefully, if no information is provided food should not be stored for more
than 3 months from the purchased date.
When buying frozen food; ensure that these have been frozen at suitable temperatures
and that the packing is intact.
Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers to maintain the quality of
the food and should be placed into the freezer as soon as possible.
If a package of frozen food shows signs of humidity and abnormal swelling it is probable
that it has been previously stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the contents
have deteriorated. Do not use this food, dispose of it as soon as possible.
The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, thermostat setting,
how often the door is opened, the type of food and the length of time required to transport
the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed on the
package and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.
If you would use maximum freezing capacity of your freezer
Take the frozen food in the upper basket to other baskets and activate Fast Freezing
mode. Fast Freezing mode will be deactivated automatically after 24 hours. Place the
food you want to freeze to the upper basket of the freezer department without exceeding
the freezing capacity of your fridge. (Your refrigerator has the capacity to freeze 15 kg
at 25°C and 14 kg at 32°C) Then reactivate the Fast Freezing mode. You can put
your food next to other frozen food after they are frozen (minimum 24 hours after Fast
Freezingmode is activated for the 2nd time).
If you would freeze about 3 kg food in your freezer:
You can place your food without touching other frozen food and activate Fast Freezing
mode. You can put your food next to other frozen food after they are frozen (after minimum
24 hours).
Do not re-freeze the frozen goods after being melted. This may cause health issues like
food poisoning.
