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.

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.

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

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
