          determined by taking out the
          cooler, ice tray and upper

          3cm must be left in front of the
          protective fan wire when placing
          food.

5.6 Defrost
Fridge compartment
  Fridge compartment performs full-
automatic defrosting. Water drops
and a frosting up to 7-8 mm can occur      DE
on the inner rear wall of the fridge
compartment while your refrigerator
cools down. Such formation is normal
as a result of the cooling system.
The frost formation is defrosted by
performing automatic defrosting
with certain intervals thanks to the
automatic defrosting system of the
rear wall. User is not required to
scrape the frost or remove the water
drops.
  Water resulting from the defrosting
passes from the water collection
groove and flows into the evaporator
through the drain pipe and evaporates
here by itself.
   Deep freezer compartment does
not perform automatic defrosting
in order to prevent decaying of the
frozen food.
  The freezer compartment defrosts
automatically.
  Check regularly to see if the drain
pipe is clogged or not and clear it with
the stick in the hole when necessary.

     as limescale, mineral salts, unburned
     hydrocarbons, metal oxides and
     silicones that can easily and quickly
     cause stains or material damage.
     Keeping the glass clean becomes too
     difficult despite the regular cleaning.
     Consequently, the appearance
     and the transparency of the glass
     deteriorates. Harsh and corrosive
     cleaning methods and compounds will
     intensify these defects and speed up
     the deterioration process.
       Water-based cleaning products that
     are not alkaline and corrosive must be
     used for regular cleaning purposes.
       Non-alkaline and non-corrosive
     materials must be used for cleaning
     so that the service life of this coating
     lasts for a long time.
