3. OPERATION

3.1 Switching on

1. Insert the plug into the wall socket.

2. Turn the Temperature regulator

clockwise to a medium setting.

3.2 Switching off

To turn off the appliance, turn the

temperature regulator to the "O"

position.

3.3 Temperature regulation

The temperature is regulated

automatically.

1. Turn the Temperature regulator

toward lower settings to obtain the

minimum coldness.

2. Turn the Temperature regulator

toward higher settings to obtain the

maximum coldness.

ENGLISH 5

A medium setting is

generally the most suitable.

However, the exact setting

should be chosen keeping in

mind that the temperature

inside the appliance

depends on:

• room temperature,

• how often the door is

opened,

• the quantity of food

stored,

• the location of the

appliance.

CAUTION!

If the ambient temperature

is high or the appliance is

fully loaded, and the

appliance is set to the lowest

temperatures, it may run

continuously causing frost to

form on the rear wall. In this

case the dial must be set to

a higher temperature to

allow automatic defrosting

and therefore reduced

energy consumption.

4. DAILY USE

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

4.1 Positioning the door

shelves

To permit storage of food packages of

various sizes, the door shelves can be

placed at different heights.

1. Gradually pull the shelf in the

direction of the arrows until it comes

free.

2. Reposition as required.

This model is equipped with a

variable storage box which can be

moved sideways.

4.2 Movable shelves

The walls of the refrigerator are

equipped with a series of runners so that

the shelves can be positioned as desired.

Do not move the glass shelf

above the vegetable drawer

to ensure correct air

circulation.

5. HINTS AND TIPS

5.1 Normal operating sounds

The following sounds are normal during

operation:

• A faint gurgling and bubbling sound

from coils sound when refrigerant is

pumped.

• A whirring and pulsating sound from

the compressor when refrigerant is

pumped.

• A sudden cracking noise from inside

appliance caused by thermic

dilatation (a natural and not

dangerous physical phenomenon).

• A faint click noise from the

temperature regulator when the

compressor switches on or off.

5.2 Hints for energy saving

• Do not open the door frequently or

leave it open longer than absolutely

necessary.

• If the ambient temperature is high

and the Temperature Regulator is set

to low temperature and the appliance

is fully loaded, the compressor may

run continuously, causing frost or ice

on the evaporator. If this happens, set

the Temperature Regulator toward

warmer settings to allow automatic

defrosting and so a saving in

electricity consumption.

5.3 Hints for fresh food

refrigeration

To obtain the best performance:

• do not store warm food or

evaporating liquids in the refrigerator

• do cover or wrap the food, particularly

if it has a strong flavour

• position food so that air can circulate

freely around it

5.4 Hints for refrigeration

Useful hints:

• Meat (all types): wrap in a suitable

packaging and place it on the glass

shelf above the vegetable drawer.

Store meat for at most 1-2 days.

• Cooked foods, cold dishes: cover and

place on any shelf.

• Fruit and vegetables: clean

thoroughly and place in a special

drawer. Bananas, potatoes, onions

and garlic must not be kept in the

refrigerator if not packed.

• Butter and cheese: place in a special

airtight container or wrap in an

aluminium foil or a polythene bag to

exclude as much air as possible.

• Bottles: close with a cap and place on

the door bottle shelf, or (if available)

on the bottle rack.

6. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

6.1 General warnings

CAUTION!

Unplug the appliance before

carrying out any

maintenance operation.

This appliance contains

hydrocarbons in its cooling

unit; maintenance and

recharging must therefore

only be carried out by

authorized technicians.

The accessories and parts of

the appliance are not

suitable for washing in a

dishwasher.

6.2 Cleaning the interior

Before using the appliance for the first

time, the interior and all internal

accessories should be washed with

lukewarm water and some neutral soap

to remove the typical smell of a brand-

new product, then dried thoroughly.

ENGLISH 7

CAUTION!

Do not use detergents,

abrasive powders, chlorine

or oil-based cleaners as they

will damage the finish.

6.3 Periodic cleaning

CAUTION!

Do not pull, move or

damage any pipes and/or

cables inside the cabinet.

CAUTION!

Take care of not to damage

the cooling system.

CAUTION!

When moving the cabinet,

lift it by the front edge to

avoid scratching the floor.

The equipment has to be cleaned

regularly:

1. Clean the inside and accessories with

lukewarm water and some neutral

soap.

2. Regularly check the door seals and

wipe clean to ensure they are clean

and free from debris.

3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

4. If accessible, clean the condenser

and the compressor at the back of

the appliance with a brush.

This operation will improve the

performance of the appliance and

save electricity consumption.

6.4 Cleaning the air channels

1. Remove the plinth (A), then the

ventilation grid (B).

C AB

2. Clean the ventilation grid.

3. Carefully pull the air deflector out (C),

checking that there is no water left

from the defrosting.

4. Clean the lower part of the appliance

with a vacuum cleaner.

6.5 Defrosting of the

refrigerator

Frost is automatically eliminated from the

evaporator of the refrigerator

compartment every time the motor

compressor stops, during normal use.

The defrost water drains out through a

trough into a special container at the

back of the appliance, over the motor

compressor, where it evaporates.

It is important to periodically clean the

defrost water drain hole (F) situated

under the salad drawers to prevent the

water overflowing and dripping onto the

food inside. Use the special cleaner

provided (P), which you will find already

inserted into the drain hole.

6.6 Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long

periods, take the following precautions:

www.aeg.com

1. Disconnect the appliance from

electricity supply.

2. Remove all food.

3. Clean the appliance and all

accessories.

4. Leave the door/doors open to

prevent unpleasant smells.

WARNING!

If you want to keep the

appliance switched on, ask

somebody to check it once

in a while to prevent the

food inside from spoiling in

case of a power failure.
