3. OPERATION

3.1 Switching on

Insert the electrical plug into a wall

socket.

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 automatically

regulated.

To operate the appliance, proceed as

follows:

• turn the Temperature regulator

towards lower settings to obtain the

minimum coldness.

• turn the Temperature regulator

towards higher settings to obtain the

maximum coldness.

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.

If the ambient temperature is

high or the appliance is fully

loaded, and the appliance is

set to the lowest

temperature, 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.

ENGLISH 5

4. FIRST USE

4.1 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.

CAUTION!

Do not use detergents or

abrasive powders, as these

will damage the finish.

5. DAILY USE

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

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.

Do not move the glass shelf

above the vegetable drawer

and the bottle shelf 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 Temperature indicator

For proper storage of food the

refrigerator is equipped with the

temperature indicator. The symbol on the

side wall of the appliance indicates the

coldest area in the refrigerator.

If “OK” is displayed (A), put fresh food

into area indicated by symbol, if not (B),

adjust the temperature controller to a

colder setting and wait 12 hours before

checking the temperature indicator

again.

www.electrolux.com6

After putting fresh food into

the appliance or after

opening the door repeatedly

or for a long period, it is

normal for the indicator not

to show "OK"; wait at least

12 hours before readjusting

the temperature controller.

6. HINTS AND TIPS

6.1 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.

6.2 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.

6.3 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

6.4 Hints for refrigeration

Useful hints:

• Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene

bags and place on the glass shelf

above the vegetable drawer.

• For safety, store in this way only one

or two days at the most.

• Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..:

these should be covered and may be

placed on any shelf.

• Fruit and vegetables: these should be

thoroughly cleaned and placed in the

special drawer(s) provided.

• Butter and cheese: these should be

placed in special airtight containers or

wrapped in aluminium foil or

polythene bags to exclude as much

air as possible.

• Bottles: these need a cap and should

be stored on the door bottle shelf, or

(if equipped) on the bottle rack.

• Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic,

if not packed, must not be kept in the

refrigerator.

7. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

ENGLISH 7

7.1 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.

7.2 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.

7.3 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 in the middle of

the refrigerator compartment channel to

prevent the water overflowing and

dripping onto the food inside.

7.4 Periods of non-operation

When the appliance is not in use for long

periods, take the following precautions:

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 the cabinet will be kept on,

ask somebody to check it

once in a while to prevent

the food inside from spoiling

in case of a power failure.
