6.1.Blue light/HarvestFresh
*May not be available in all models
For the blue light,
Fruits and vegetables stored in the crispers that are illuminated with a blue light continue their photosynthesis by means of the wavelength effect of blue light and thus preserve their vitamin content.
ForHarvestFresh,
Fruits, and vegetables stored in crispers illuminated with the HarvestFresh technology preserve their vitamins for a longer time thanks to the blue, green, and red lights and dark cycles, which simulate a day cycle. If you open the door of the refrigerator during the dark period of the HarvestFresh technology, the refrigerator will automatically detect this and enable the blue-green or red light to illuminate the crisper for your convenience. After you have closed the door of the refrigerator, the dark period will continue, representing the nighttime in a day cycle.

6.2.Defrosting
A) Fridge Compartment
The fridge compartment defrosts automatically. The defrosting water runs to the drain tube via a collection container at the back of the appliance (1).
(see diagram) During defrosting, water droplets may form at the back of the fridge compartment where the concealed evaporator is located. Some droplets may remain on the liner and refreeze when defrosting is completed. Do not allow items in the fridge to touch the back wall as the water droplets will make them wet. Do not use pointed or sharp-edged objects such as knives, and forks to remove the droplets which have frozen.
If at any time the defrost water does not drain from the collection channel, check to ensure that no food particles have blocked the drain tube. The drain tube can be cleared by pushing the special plastic plunger provided down the drain tube (2). If the frost layer reaches about1/4”(7 mm), reduce the setting (i.e. from 4 to 1) to restart automatic defrosting.

B) Freezer compartment
Defrosting is very straightforward and without mess, thanks to a special defrost collection basin.
Defrost twice a year or when a frost layer of around 7 (1/4”) mm has formed.
To start the defrosting procedure, switch off the appliance at the socket outlet and pull out the mains plug.
All food should be wrapped in several layers of newspaper and stored in a cool place (e.g. fridge or larder).
Containers of warm water may be placed carefully in the freezer to speed up the defrosting.
Do not use pointed or sharp-edged objects, such as knives or forks to remove the frost.
Never use hairdryers, electrical heaters, or other such electrical appliances for defrosting. Sponge out the defrost water collected in the bottom of the freezer compartment. After defrosting, dry the interior thoroughly.
Insert the plug into the wall socket and switch on the electricity supply.

6.3.Placing the food

6.4.Changing the illumination lamp
To change the Bulb/LED used for the illumination of your refrigerator, call your authorized service.
The lamp(s) used in this appliance is not suitable for household room illumination.
The intended purpose of this lamp is to assist the user to place foodstuffs in the refrigerator/freezer in a safe and comfortable way.
The lamps used in this appliance have to withstand extreme physical conditions such as temperatures below -20 °C. (only chest and upright freezer)

Maintenance and cleaning

Read the “Safety Instructions” section first!
Never uses gasoline, benzene, or similar substances for cleaning purposes.
 We recommend that you unplug the appliance before cleaning.
Never uses any sharp abrasive instrument, soap, household cleaner, detergent, and wax polish for cleaning.
For non-No Frost products, water drops, and frosting up to a fingerbreadth occur on the rear wall of the Fridge compartment. Do not clean it; never apply oil or similar agents to it.
Only uses slightly damp microfiber cloths to clean the outer surface of the product. Sponges and other types of cleaning cloths may scratch the surface.
Use lukewarm water to clean the cabinet of your refrigerator and wipe it dry.
Use a damp cloth wrung out in a solution of one teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda to one pint of water to clean the interior and wipe it dry.
Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical items.
If your refrigerator is not going to be used for a long period of time, unplug the power cable, remove all food, clean it and leave the door ajar.
Check door seals regularly to ensure they are clean and free from food particles.
To remove door racks, remove all the contents and then simply push the door rack upwards from the base.
Never use cleaning agents or water that contains chlorine to clean the outer surfaces and chromium-coated parts of the product. Chlorine causes corrosion on such metal surfaces.
Do not use sharp, abrasive tools, soap, household cleaning agents, detergents, kerosene, fuel oil, varnish, etc. to prevent removal and deformation of the prints on the plastic part. Use lukewarm water and a soft cloth for cleaning and then wipe it dry.

Protection of plastic surfaces
Do not put the liquid oils or oil-cooked meals in your refrigerator in unsealed containers as they damage the plastic surfaces of your refrigerator. In case of spilling or smearing oil on the plastic surfaces, clean and rinse the relevant part of the surface at once with warm water.

Troubleshooting

• The new product may be wider than the previous one. Larger refrigerators operate for a longer period of time.
• The room temperature may be high. >>>It is normal that the product operates for longer periods in hot ambient.
• The refrigerator might be plugged in recently or might be loaded with food. >>>When the refrigerator is plugged in or loaded with food recently, it will take longer for it to attain the set temperature. This is normal.
• Large amounts of hot food might be put in the refrigerator recently. >>>Do not put hot food into the refrigerator.
• Doors might be opened frequently or left ajar for a long time. >>>The warm air that has entered the refrigerator causes the refrigerator to run for longer periods. Do not open the doors frequently.
• The freezer or fridge compartment door might be left ajar. >>>Check if the doors are closed completely.
• The refrigerator is adjusted to a very low temperature. >>>Adjust the refrigerator temperature to a warmer degree and wait until the temperature is achieved.
• The door seal of the fridge or freezer may be soiled, worn out, broken, or not properly seated. >>>Clean or replace the seal. A damaged/broken seal causes the refrigerator to run for a longer period of time in order to maintain the current temperature.

The freezer temperature is very low while the fridge temperature is sufficient. 

• The freezer temperature is adjusted to a very low value. >>>Adjust the freezer temperature to a warmer degree and check.

The fridge temperature is very low while the freezer temperature is sufficient.

• The fridge temperature is adjusted to a very low value. >>>Adjust the fridge temperature to a warmer degree and check.

Food kept in the fridge compartment drawers is frozen.

• The fridge temperature is adjusted to a very high value. >>>Adjust the fridge temperature to a lower value and check.

The temperature in the fridge or freezer is very low. 

• The fridge temperature is adjusted to a very high value. >>>Fridge compartment temperature setting has an effect on the temperature of the freezer. Change the temperatures of the fridge or freezer and wait until the relevant compartments attain a sufficient temperature.
• Doors are opened frequently or left ajar for a long time. >>>Do not open the doors frequently.
• The door is ajar. >>>Close the door completely.
• The refrigerator is plugged in or loaded with food recently. >>>This is normal. When the refrigerator is plugged in or loaded with food recently, it will take longer for it to attain the set temperature.
• Large amounts of hot food might be put in the refrigerator recently. >>>Do not put hot food into the refrigerator.
• Vibrations or noise.
• The floor is not level or stable. >>> If the refrigerator rocks when moved slowly, balance it by adjusting its feet. Also, make sure that the floor is strong enough to carry the refrigerator and level.
• The items put in the refrigerator may cause noise. >>>Remove the items on top of the refrigerator.

Troubleshooting

There are noises coming from the refrigerator like liquid flowing, spraying, etc.

• Liquid and gas flows occur in accordance with the operating principles of your refrigerator. It is normal and not a fault.
