5.9 Crisper

Crisper of the refrigerator is 

designed specially to keep the 

vegetables fresh without loosing 

their humidity. For this purpose, 

cool air circulation is intensified 

around the crisper in general. 

Remove the door shelves that 

stand against the crisper before 

removing the crisper.  

5.10 Humidity-controlled 

crisper Ev(R)

Humidity rates of fruits and 

vegetables are kept under control 

thanks to the humidity-controlled 

crisper and thus the food is 

ensured to stay fresh for a longer 

period.

We recommend that you place 

leafy vegetables such as lettuce 

and spinach and vegetables 

sensitive to humidity loss as 

horizontally as possible when 

putting them in the crisper; not in a 

horizontal position on their roots.

While the vegetables are being 

replaced, their specific weights 

should be taken into consideration. 

Heavy and hard vegetables must be 

placed at the bottom of the crisper 

and light and soft vegetables must 

be on the upper part.

Never leave the vegetables in their 

plastic bags in the crisper. If they 

are left in their plastic bags, this 

will cause them to decompose 

in a short period of time. If you 

not prefer the vegetable to get in 

contact with other vegetables for 

hygienic reasons, use perforated 

paper or a similar material instead 

of plastic bags.

Do not place pears, apricots, 

peaches etc., especially those 

fruits that generate large amounts 

of ethylene, in the same crisper 

with other fruits and vegetables. 

The ethylene gas emitted by these 

fruits cause other fruits to ripen 

sooner and to rot in a shorter span 

of time.

5.11 Egg tray

You can install the egg holder to 

the desired door or body shelf.

Never keep the egg holder in the 

freezer compartment.

5.12 Movable Middle Section 

Movable middle section is 

intended to prevent the cold air 

inside your refrigerator from 

escaping outside. 

1. 

 Sealing is provided when the 

gaskets on the door presses 

on the surface of the movable 

middle section while the fridge 

compartment doors are closed.
