stored,

• the location of the

appliance.

ENGLISH 5

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.

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

4.1 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 foods it is not necessary

to change the medium setting.

Place the fresh food to be frozen in the

top compartment

For a faster freezing operation, turn the

temperature regulator toward higher

settings to obtain the maximum

coldness.

CAUTION!

In this condition, the

refrigerator compartment

temperature might drop

below 0°C. If this occurs

reset the temperature

regulator to a warmer

setting.

4.2 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).

4.3 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.

4.4 Movable shelves

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped

with a series of runners so that the

shelves can be positioned as desired.

www.electrolux.com6

Do not move the glass shelf

above the vegetable drawer

and the bottle shelf to

ensure correct air circulation.

4.5 Ice-cube production

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.

Do not move the lower

door shelf 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.

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

ENGLISH 7

5.4 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.

5.5 Hints for freezing

To help you make the most of the

freezing process, here are some

important hints:

• the maximum quantity of food which

can be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on

the rating plate;

• the freezing process takes 24 hours.

No further food to be frozen should be

added during this period;

• freeze only top quality, fresh and

thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;

• prepare food in small portions to

enable it to be rapidly and completely

frozen and to make it possible

subsequently to thaw only the quantity

required;

• wrap up the food in aluminium foil or

polythene and make sure that the

packages are airtight;

• do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to

touch food which is already frozen,

thus avoiding a rise in temperature of

the latter;

• lean foods store better and longer

than fatty ones; salt reduces the

storage life of food;

• water ices, if consumed immediately

after removal from the freezer

compartment, can possibly cause the

skin to be freeze burnt;

• it is advisable to show the freezing in

date on each individual pack to

enable you to keep tab of the storage

time.

5.6 Hints for storage of frozen

food

To obtain the best performance from this

appliance, you should:

• make sure that the commercially

frozen foodstuffs were adequately

stored by the retailer;

• be sure that frozen foodstuffs are

transferred from the foodstore to the

freezer in the shortest possible time;

• not open the door frequently or leave

it open longer than absolutely

necessary;

• once defrosted, food deteriorates

rapidly and cannot be refrozen;

• do not exceed the storage period

indicated by the food manufacturer.

6.3 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.

6.4 Defrosting the freezer

CAUTION!

Never use sharp metal tools

to scrape off frost from the

evaporator as you could

damage it.

A temperature rise of the

frozen food packs, during

defrosting, may shorten their

safe storage life.

Do not use a mechanical

device or any artificial

means to speed up the

thawing process other than

those recommended by the

manufacturer.

A certain amount of frost will always form

on the freezer shelves and around the

top compartment.

Defrost the freezer when the frost layer

reaches a thickness of about 3-5 mm.

1. Pull out the plug from the wall socket

or switch off the appliance.

2. Remove any stored food, wrap it in

several layers of newspaper and put

it in a cool place
