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.

CAUTION!

Do not use detergents or

abrasive powders, as these

will damage the finish.

5. DAILY USE

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

www.electrolux.com8

5.1 Movable shelves

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped

with a series of runners so that the

shelves can be positioned as desired.

For better use of space, the front half-

shelves (A) can be placed under the rear

ones. (B)

Do not move the glass shelf

above the vegetable drawer

to ensure correct air

circulation.

5.2 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.

5.3 FreeStore

The refrigerator compartment is

equipped with a device that allows for

rapid cooling of foods and more uniform

temperature in the compartment.

This device activates by itself when

needed, for example for a quick

temperature recovering after door

opening or when the ambient

temperature is high.

It is possible to switch on the

device manually when

needed (refer to "FreeStore

function").

ENGLISH 9

The FreeStore device stops

when the door is open and

restarts immediately after

the door closing.

5.4 Humidity control

The glass shelf incorporates a device

with slits (adjustable by means of a

sliding lever), which makes it possible to

regulate the humidity in the vegetable

drawer(s).

When the ventilation slots are closed:

the natural moisture content of the food

in the fruit and vegetable compartments

is preserved for longer.

When the ventilation slots are opened:

more air circulation results in a lower air

moisture content in the fruit and

vegetable compartments.

5.5 Freezing fresh food

The freezer compartment is suitable for

freezing fresh food and storing frozen

and deep-frozen food for a long time.

To freeze fresh food activate the

FastFreeze function and place the food

to be frozen in the freezer compartment.

To freeze fresh food activate the

FastFreeze function at least 24 hours

before placing the food to be frozen in

the freezer compartment.

Place the fresh food to be frozen in the

top compartment.

The maximum amount of food that can

be frozen in 24 hours is specified on the

rating plate, a label located on the

inside of the appliance.

The freezing process lasts 24 hours:

during this period do not add other food

to be frozen.

When the freezing process is completed,

return to the required temperature (see

"FastFreeze Function").

In this condition, the

refrigerator compartment

temperature might drop

below 0°C. If this occurs

reset the temperature

regulator to a warmer

setting.

5.6 Storage of frozen food

When first starting-up or after a period

out of use, before putting the products in

the compartment let the appliance run at

least 2 hours on the higher settings.

In the event of accidental

defrosting, for example due

to a power failure, if the

power has been off for

longer than the value shown

in the technical

characteristics chart under

"rising time", the defrosted

food must be consumed

quickly or cooked

immediately and then re-

frozen (after cooling).

5.7 Thawing

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to

being used, can be thawed in the

refrigerator compartment or at room

temperature, depending on the time

available for this operation.

Small pieces may even be cooked still

frozen, directly from the freezer: in this

case, cooking will take longer.

5.8 Ice-cube production

This appliance is equipped with one or

more trays for the production of ice-

cubes.
