3 USING THE APPLIANCE
3.1 Information on the Frost Free
Technology
Frost Free
fridge freezers
have a
different
operating
system to static
fridge freezers
.
In normal (static)
f
reezers
, the humidity
entering the f
reezer
due to opening the
door, and the humidity
inherent in the food,
causes frost build-
up in the freezer
compartment. To
defrost the frost and
ice in the freezer
compartment, you are
required to periodically
switch off the fridge,
place the frozen
food in a separate
cooled container,
then remove the ice
gathered in the freezer
compartment.
The situation is completely different in
Frost
Free
freezers
. A built-in fan blows dry and
cold air evenly throughout the freezer
compartments. The cold air disperses
uniformly between the
compartments
,
ensuring all your food is cooled equally,
thus preventing humidity and frost build-up.
Therefore, your
Frost Free
fr
eezer
allows
ease of use, in addition to its huge capacity
and stylish appearance.
3.2 Thermostat Setting
The thermostat automatically regulates
the temperature inside the refrigerator and
freezer compartments. Cooler temperatures
can be obtained by rotating the knob to
higher numbers, 1 to 5.

Thermostat settings:
1 – 2 :
For short-term storage of food in the
freezer compartment.
3 – 4 :
For long-term storage of food in the
freezer compartment.
5:
For freezing fresh food. The
appliance will work longer. Once
the food is fully frozen, reset the
thermostat to its original position.
3.3 Temperature Adjustment Warnings
• It is not recommended that you operate
your fridge in environments colder than
10°C in terms of its efficiency.
• Temperature adjustments should be
made according to the frequency of door
openings, the quantity of food kept inside
the fridge and the ambient temperature in
the location of your fridge.
• In order to allow your fridge to reach
the operating temperature after being
connected to mains, do not open the
doors frequently or place large quantities
of food in the fridge. Please note that,
depending on the ambient temperature,
it may take 24 hours for your fridge to
reach the operating temperature.
