3. INSTALLATION

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

3.1 Positioning

Install the appliance in a dry, well

ventilated indoors where the ambient

temperature corresponds to the climate

class indicated on the rating plate of the

appliance.

Climate

class

Ambient temperature

SN +10°C to + 32°C

N +16°C to + 32°C

ST +16°C to + 38°C

T +16°C to + 43°C

ENGLISH 5

Some functional problems

might occur for some types

of models when operating

outside of that range. The

correct operation can only

be guaranteed within the

specified temperature range.

If you have any doubts

regarding where to install the

appliance, please turn to the

vendor, to our customer

service or to the nearest

Authorised Service Centre.

3.2 Levelling

When placing the appliance ensure that

it stands level. This can be achieved by

two adjustable feet at the bottom in front.

3.3 Location

It must be possible to

disconnect the appliance

from the mains power

supply; the plug must

therefore be easily

accessible after installation.

The appliance should be installed well

away from sources of heat such as

radiators, boilers, direct sunlight etc.

Ensure that air can circulate freely

around the back of the cabinet. To

ensure best performance, if the

appliance is positioned below an

overhanging wall unit, the minimum

distance between the top of the cabinet

and the wall unit must be at least 100

mm . Ideally, however, the appliance

should not be positioned below

overhanging wall units. Accurate levelling

is ensured by one or more adjustable

feet at the base of the cabinet.

3.4 Door reversibility

WARNING!

Before carrying out any

operations, remove the plug

from the power socket.

CAUTION!

To carry out the following

operations, we suggest that

this be made with another

person that will keep a firm

hold on the doors of the

appliance during the

operations.

1. Unscrew both screws on the rear

side.

2. Push back the top and lift it.

www.electrolux.com6

3. Unscrew the upper hinge and

remove the cover on the left side of

the door (cover available in selected

models). Install the upper hinge on

the opposite side, do not tighten the

screws. Put the cover in the hole on

the right side of the door.

4. Remove the door.

5. Tilt back the appliance carefully, so

that the compressor does not touch

the floor.

6. Unscrew the left foot and the screw.

7. Unscrew the screws of the door

bottom hinge. Remove the hinge.

Position the pin in the neighbouring

hole of the bottom hinge.

8. Unscrew and install the screws on

the opposite side of the bottom

hinge.

9. Install the bottom hinge on the left

side.

10. Screw in the screw and the right foot.

11. Fit the appliance door on the bottom

and upper hinge pins.

12. Tighten the screws of the upper

hinge.

13. Slide the top forward into the right

position.

14. Screw in both screws on the rear

side.

15. Remove and install the handle on the

opposite side.

CAUTION!

Reposition, level the

appliance, wait for at least

four hours and then connect

it to the power socket.

ENGLISH 7

Do a final check to make

sure that:

• All screws are tightened.

• The magnetic seal

adheres to the cabinet.

• The door opens and

closes correctly.

If the ambient temperature is

cold (i.e. in Winter), the

gasket may not fit perfectly

to the cabinet. In that case,

wait for the natural fitting of

the gasket.

In case you do not want to

carry out the above

mentioned operations,

contact the nearest

Authorised Service Centre.

The Authorised Service

specialist will carry out the

reversibility of the doors at

your cost.

3.5 Reversibility of the freezer

door

180˚

3.6 Electrical connection

• Before plugging in, ensure that the

voltage and frequency shown on the

rating plate correspond to your

domestic power supply.

• The appliance must be earthed. The

power supply cable plug is provided

with a contact for this purpose. If the

domestic power supply socket is not

earthed, connect the appliance to a

separate earth in compliance with

current regulations, consulting a

qualified electrician.

www.electrolux.com8

• The manufacturer declines all

responsibility if the above safety

precautions are not observed.

• This appliance complies with the

E.E.C. Directives.

4. OPERATION

4.1 Switching on

Insert the electrical plug into a wall

socket.

Turn the temperature regulator clockwise

to a medium setting.

4.2 Switching off

To turn off the appliance, turn the

temperature regulator to the "O" position.

4.3 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.

5. DAILY USE

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

5.1 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.

However, 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.

5.2 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.

ENGLISH 9

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).

5.3 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.

5.4 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.

5.5 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.

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
